Öğe Castleman's disease as cervical mass: a report of three cases and review of the literature(Cic Edizioni Int, 2009) Cakabay, B.; Akbulut, S.; Sezgin, A.; Gomceli, I.; Arikok, A. T.; Ozmen, C. Akgul; Ozbek, E.node hyperplasia involving lymphatic tissue in the neck, mediastinum, abdomen and other areas. Disease was described for the first time in 1956 by Castleman. The etiopathogenesis of the disease is unknown. The disorder can be classified into three histopathological types: hyalin-vascular, plasma-cell and mixed. We report three cases of the Castleman's disease (hyaline-vascular type) in three female patients with unilateral swelling of the neck. None of the patients developed any local or distant recurrence in postoperative follow-up.Öğe A familial tendency for developing inguinal hernias: study of a single family(Springer, 2010) Akbulut, S.; Cakabay, B.; Sezgin, A.Inguinal hernias are the most common abdominal wall rupture, and the predisposing factors to hernia formation include a familial tendency, connective tissue and lung diseases, smoking and prostatism. The aim of this study is to discuss the familial tendency for hernia in 5 members of a family of 11 people. To our knowledge, no other large family with inguinal hernias has been reported in the English literature. This study presents the surgical procedures and follow-up results of right inguinal hernias seen in 5 of 11 members from one family. Age, sex, body mass index (BMI), biochemical parameters, type of hernia and surgical procedure, and follow-up results were evaluated retrospectively. This study included five patients (three males, two females) presenting with right direct inguinal hernias. The initial symptoms began at an average age of 18.2 years (range 15-22), and the mean BMI of the patients was 20.6 kg/m(2) (range 19.3-22.1). Three underwent hernia repairs with polypropylene surgical mesh and two with polyglactin-polypropylene composite mesh (Vypro II). The patients' blood vitamin C levels were lower than those of the other family members, while their 24-h urinary hydroxyproline levels were higher. The patients were followed for an average of 16.4 months (range 3-33 months). No complications developed during follow-up. The occurrence of the same type of hernia in more than one family member and the altered biochemical results indicate that the hernias may have resulted from a familial connective tissue disease. In patients with hernias, if a familial tendency is suspected, a detailed examination for connective tissue diseases may help to confirm the diagnosis.Öğe Retrospective Analysis of Echinococcosis in an Endemic Region of Turkey, a Review of 193 Cases(Iranian Scientific Society Medical Entomology, 2010) Gulsun, S.; Cakabay, B.; Kandenur, M. Nail; Aslan, S.; Atalay, B.; Sogutcu, N.; Satici, O.Background: The hydatidosis is endemic in our region. Some of the recent studies revealed that hydatid cyst prevalence is decreasing gradually in Turkey. The aim of this study was to investigate the actual prevalence of hydatidosis in an endemic region of Turkey, and to share our experiences in the medical and surgical management of hydatidosis. Methods: Data were collected retrospectively from the records of 193 patients who had a diagnosis of hydatidosis, and admitted to Diyarbakir Education and Research Hospital. Imaging techniques, histology and serology were used for diagnosis. Results: From records of 772 cystic patients whose cysts were localized in the lung and liver, 193 (25%) of them were diagnosed with cyst hydatidosis. Lung hydatidosis was found statistically significant among these cases (Chi-square=24.88, p< 0.0001). Postoperative recurrence was detected in seven (3.62%) patients. All postoperative recurrences were observed in the consequent three years period. Conclusion: The prevalence of hydatidosis is still high in southeast Turkey and not only in children but also in adult cases in our region lung hydatidosis is frequent corresponding with other organ hydatidosis. We also found that the most risky period in recurrence rates is the consequent post-operative three years. According to our experiences, transthoracic approach in lung hydatidosis, external drainage, and cystectomy in liver hydatidosis is safe and effective choices in surgical treatment.Öğe Scar Endometriosis in the Abdominal Wall: a Predictable Condition for Experienced Surgeons(Acta Medical Belgica, 2010) Akbulut, S.; Sevinc, M. Mahsuni; Bakir, S.; Cakabay, B.; Sezgin, A.Purpose : Endometriosis in surgical scars develops in 0.1% of those women who undergo Caesarean section or other obstetric surgery. Herein we analyse and discuss the clinico-pathological characteristics of 15 patients with scar endometriosis in the abdominal wall. Methods : Fifteen cases of scar endometriosis in the abdominal wall that were treated surgically in our department between 2003 and 2009 were examined retrospectively. Age, parity, complaint, medical or surgical history, pre/postoperative hormonotherapy, size of the mass, surgical procedure, follow-up and disease recurrence were analysed. Results : This retrospective study included 15 patients presenting with 17 postoperative abdominal wall masses. The mean age of the patients was 32.1 +/- 6.0 years (range, 23-48). Eleven of the patients had a painful mass that became bigger before menstruation, two had palpable masses only, and two were hospitalised because of a mass with persistent pain. The locations of the masses were as follows : eight were close to the right side and three were close to the left side; two were in the middle of the Pfanenstiel incision and two were in trocar tracts. The patients' surgical histories included Caesarean. section in thirteen, bilateral laparoscopic ovarian cyst excision in one, and laparoscopic appendectomy in one. Conclusions : if a patient presents with incision pain and a palpable mass after gynaecologic surgery, an incisional endometrioma should be considered. Surgical excision and hormone therapy are effective treatment approaches in these patients.Öğe Side specific differences of tumor budding on non-metastatic colon cancer(Verduci Publisher, 2022) Sogutcu, N.; Gumus, S.; Balkan, A. Z. Abidin; Bilge, H.; Cakabay, B.OBJECTIVE: Recent literature suggests that tumor budding (TB) may have a significant clinical impact on colorectal cancers. Our study aims to reveal the effect of TB on the long-term outcomes of patients and to reveal whether there is a difference in tumor location and TB in colonic cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A cohort of 100 patients with non-metastatic colon cancer was included in the study. The clinicopathological information of the patients was reviewed. Patients' preparations were reevaluated to identify TB as: low, medium, and high and represent 0-4 buds, 5-9 buds, and 10 or more buds per 0.785 mm2, respectively. Long-term oncological outcomes of patients were analyzed. The recurrence, metastasis, and final status of the patients were deter-mined during the follow-up period. RESULTS: Low TN was associated with < 65 year (p = 0.048), absence of lymphatic metastasis (p = 0.003), and absence of perineural invasion (p = 0.023). High TB was associated with higher pT stage (p = 0.017) and tumor stage (p = 0.005). Additionally, right-sided tumors had a high TB score than left side (82.3% vs. 23.6%, p = 0.011). Patients with high TB had lower overall survival, but these were not statically significant. According to multiple regression analysis, mortality risk was associated with age (p = 0.046), pN status (p = 0.003) and TB (p = 0.040). CONCLUSIONS: High TB is associated with mortality in colon cancer and is more common in right colonic carcinoma.
