Zusammenfassung.
Ziel: Patienten mit Glykogenspeichererkrankung (GSD) Typ Ib werden aufgrund einer erhöhten
Infektionsneigung bei Leukozytenfunktionsstörung häufig mit Granulozytenkolonie stimulierenden
Faktoren (G-CSF) behandelt. Unser Ziel war es, bei diesen Patienten Veränderungen
des Knochenmarksignals in der MRT zu evaluieren. Material und Methode: Die distalen Ober- und Unterschenkelknochen von 6 Patienten mit GSD Ib wurden in
der MRT untersucht. Vier dieser Patienten wurden durchschnittlich seit 5,8 Jahren
mit G-CSF behandelt, zwei Patienten erhielten keine G-CSF-Therapie. Die Bildgebung
umfasste Spin-Echo- sowie Short-time-inversion-recovery (STIR)-Sequenzen. Knochenmarksbiopsien
lagen bei 4 der 6 Patienten vor. Ergebnisse: Bei den G-CSF behandelten GSD Ib Patienten waren homogene Signalerhöhungen in der
STIR Sequenz und Signalabsenkungen in der T1-Wichtung nachweisbar, die flächig nahezu den gesamten Markraum betrafen. Aspirationsbiopsien
ergaben bei diesen Patienten eine Hyperzellularität des Knochenmarks. Bei GSD Ib-Patienten
ohne G-CSF-Therapie waren diese Signalveränderungen deutlich geringer ausgeprägt
und vorwiegend in den gelenknahen Metaphysenabschnitten lokalisiert. Schlussfolgerungen: Bei GSD Ib-Patienten sind aufgrund einer erhöhten myelopoetischen Aktivität MRT Signalveränderungen
des Knochenmarks nachweisbar, die durch eine G-CSF-Langzeittherapie verstärkt werden.
Signal changes of bone marrow in MRI under long-term treatment with granulocyte colony-stimulating
factors.
Purpose: Recurrent infections in patients with glycogen storage disease (GSD) type Ib resulting
from an associated neutropenia are frequently treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating
factors (G-CSF). The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes occurring in bone
marrow by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in these patients. Material and Methods: The distal femoral and tibial bones of six patients with GSD Ib were evaluated by
MRI. Four of these patients were treated with G-CSF for at least 3.9 to a maximum
of 8.2 years (mean 5.8 years). The imaging sequences encompassed spin-echo as well
as short-time inversion recovery sequences. 4 of the 6 patients had bone marrow aspirations.
Results: The patients who had undergone therapy with G-CSF showed a marked increase in signal
strength in STIR sequences which encompassed the entire medullar cavity. In T1-weighted images these areas were hypointense. Biopsies obtained from these patients
showed a bone marrow hypercellularity. The patients without G-CSF therapy showed the
same signal intensity changes but with a more discrete and localized pattern in the
metaphyseal cavities. Conclusion: In subjects with GSD Ib, an increased myelopoetic activity of the bone marrow which
is intensified under long-term treatment with G-CSF can be demonstrated by MRI.
