Öğe Diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasonography in hepatocellular carcinoma.(W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 1997) Goral, V; Mumbuc, L; Bilici, A; Kemaneci, A[Abstract Not Available]Öğe The effect of alternate-day low-dose prednisolone on bone age in children with steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome(Springer Verlag, 1996) Bircan, Z; Soran, M; Yildirim, I; Dogan, M; Sahin, A; Bilici, A; Danaci, M[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Effects of extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy on intrarenal resistive index(Taylor & Francis As, 2003) Nazaroglu, H; Akay, AF; Bükte, Y; Sahin, H; Akkus, Z; Bilici, AObjective: This prospective study was performed to determine whether extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL), widely used for treating renal and ureteral stones, affects the kidney interlobar artery resistive index (RI). Material and Methods: A total of 43 patients (30 with renal and 13 with ureteral stones) underwent color Doppler examination before and 30 min and 3 h after ESWL. Seventeen patients with renal and nine with ureteral stones underwent Doppler examination 2 weeks later. Measurements were made near the stones (nearby region), at least 2 cm from the stones (remote region) and in the contralateral kidney for renal stones, and in the ipsilateral and contralateral kidneys for ureteral stones. Results: In patients with renal stones, the RI was increased 30 min and 3 h after ESWL in the nearby and remote regions, and more markedly in the former. In the contralateral kidney, there was an increase in RI only at 3 h, which was less than that in the ipsilateral kidney. The RI at 2 weeks post-ESWL in the nearby region and contralateral kidney did not differ from the pre-ESWL values. ESWL performed for ureteral stones caused no increase in RI in the ipsilateral kidney. Conclusion: Patients with renal stones had a temporary increase in RI in the hours following ESWL in both the ipsilateral and contralateral kidneys, which was highest in the region near the stones and lowest in the contralateral kidney. Two weeks later, the RI in both areas had returned to pre-ESWL levels.Öğe Follow-up results in tuberculous cervical lymphadenitis(Cambridge Univ Press, 2006) Oktay, MF; Topcu, I; Senyigit, A; Bilici, A; Arslan, A; Cureoglu, S; Yildirim, MObjective: To investigate the efficacy of medical antituberculous treatment in patients with tuberculous cervical lymphadenitis (TCL). Methods: In the period 1996-2002, 73 TCL patients were reviewed and the results of clinical and laboratory testing were documented. The efficacy of a four-drug chemotherapy regimen was investigated. Results: Purified protein derivatives (PPD) skin test results were positive in 58 (79 per cent) patients. Chest X-rays revealed changes consistent with tuberculosis in nine (12.3 per cent) patients. The mean duration of medical treatment was 10.04 months. In follow-up evaluation, 14 (20 per cent) patients were considered suspicious for resistant TCL and total excision of all nodes was performed. Histopathology confirmed TB in only 10 of these cases. Conclusion: The high incidence of residual disease in our study indicates that medical treatment (at least nine months of four combined antituberculous drugs) did not seem to be effective. If lymphadenopathy persists, total surgical excision of lymph nodes should be the treatment of choice.Öğe Malignant pleural mesothelioma caused by environmental exposure to asbestos in the southeast of Turkey(Karger, 2000) Senyigit, A; Bayram, H; Babayigit, C; Topçu, F; Nazaroglu, H; Bilici, A; Leblebici, IHBackground and Objectives: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is reported to be common in the southeast of Turkey, as a result of environmental asbestos exposure. The aim of this study was to evaluate the computed tomography (CT) features of MPM in patients with a history of asbestos exposure. Methods: The CT scans of 117 patients who had a diagnosis of MPM were retrospectively evaluated. Additionally, CT findings of histologic subtypes were compared. Results: The most common CT findings included pleural effusion (n = 104, 89%), pleural thickening (n = 96, 82%), mediastinal pleural involvement (n = 77, 66%) and interlobar fissural involvement (n = 62, 53%). Histologic subtype analysis was performed in 89 patients; of these, epithelial, sarcomatous and mixed types were identified in 46, 23 and 20 patients, respectively. An analysis of CT findings demonstrated that the involvement of mediastinal pleural (91%), interlobar fissure (87%) and lung parenchyma (48%) was significantly more frequent in sarcomatous type, as compared to epithelial (61% and p < 0.01; 35 and 4%, p < 0.0001, respectively) and mixed types (65% and p < 0.05; 10% and p < 0.0001; 10% and p < 0.01, respectively). Furthermore, there was a significant correlation between pericardial involvement and chest walt involvement (r = 0.42, p < 0.05) in sarcomatous type. Similarly, lymphadenopathy and parenchymal involvement (r = 0.23, p < 0.02), pericardial and chest wall involvement (r = 0.25, p < 0.01), chest wall and interlobar fissural involvement (r = 0.25, p < 0.01) were significantly correlated, when CT findings of all histologic subtypes were combined. Conclusions:These results suggest that although CT findings of MPM vary, they may provide valuable clues to the diagnosis, at least in patients with a history of asbestos exposure. In addition, the presence of extensive lesions may suggest MPM of sarcomatous subtype. Copyright (C) 2000 S.

The patient, who had thoracolumbar hypertrichosis, underwent magnetic resonance imaging which demonstrated a cystic lesion within spinal canal. The cystic lesion was removed surgically. Histological study proved it to be a neuroepithelial cyst. Spinal intradural neuroepithelial cyst associated with other congenital malformations is a rare condition.Öğe An unusual presentation of primary amyloidosis(Saudi Med J, 2004) Dursun, M; Ayyildiz, O; Yilmaz, S; Bilici, AA 65-year-old male patient presented with right upper-quadrant abdominal pain. Ultrasonography revealed hypoechoic lesion in the perihepatic and intraparenchymal area. Computed tomography (CT) showed hypodense lesion in the same localization. A fine needle biopsy specimen of the periliepatic lesion was hemorrhagic. On abdominal CT, the liver showed enhancement, but the spleen did not enhance. The spleen could not be detected by scintigraphic imaging using Tc(99)m sulfur dioxide. A diagnosis of primary amyloidosis was made by renal biopsy. Melphalan 10mg/day for 4 days/month was started. The clinical and radiological follow up demonstrated a resorption of the hematoma. The patient is still alive at the eighth month of therapy.Öğe What are the effects of microwave oven on pregnant and newborn rat brains?(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 1996) Inaloz, SS; Dasdag, S; Bilici, A; Ceviz, A; Aslan, A; Ak, HE; Akkus, M[Abstract Not Available]
