Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Karadeniz’in önemli antik kentlerinden birisi olan Sinop’ta Balatlar Kilise popülasyonu içerisinde 2006 yılında tespit edilen ve 18. yüzyıla ait olduğu düşünülen bir kafatası incelenmiştir. Yapılan makroskobik ve tomografik incelemelerde, ileri erişkin bu bireyin 3. derece bilateral osteodistrofiye sahip olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Simetrik biçimde parietalin her iki yanında yer alan bu lezyon, özellikle sağ parietalde yer yer kemik dokuyu tamamen ortadan kaldırmıştır. Bu durumun, bireyde ciddi hayati bir tehlike oluşturduğu düşünülmektedir. Bilateral osteodistrofinin etiyolojisi net olmamakla birlikte yaşlılığa bağlı etkenlerin önemli rol oynadığı belirtilmektedir. Bilateral osteodistrofinin bu bireyde gözlemlenmesinin nedeninin ise yaşa bağlı gelişen osteoporoz olduğu düşünülmektedir. Antropolojik çalışmalarda oldukça az rastlanan bu patolojinin Anadolu’daki nadir örneklerden biri olması ve paleopatoloji literatürüne katkı sağlaması açısından önemi büyüktür.

A case of advanced stage biparietal osteodystrophy in the Balatlar Church

Abstract

In this study, a skull found in 2006 that belongs to the Balatlar Church population in Sinop, which is one of the important ancient cities of the Black Sea and is thought to belong to the 18th century, was examined. In the macroscopic and tomographic examinations, it was revealed that the older adult individual had a pathology called 3rd degree Bilateral Osteodystrophy. Located symmetrically on the both sides of the parietal bones, this lesion completely removed some bone tissue, especially on the right parietal. This incidence is thought to pose a serious life-threatening situation to the individual. Even tough the etiology of bilateral osteodystrophy is not clear, it is stated that the factors related to aging play an important role. The reason for the occurrence of bilateral osteodystrophy in this individual is thought to be the age-related osteoporosis. This pathological lesion, which is rarely encountered in anthropological studies, is of great importance in terms of being one of the rare examples in Anatolia and contributing to the paleopathology literature.
