Öğe Abdominal trauma due to blank cartridge guns(Elsevier Science Bv, 2006) Korkmaz, Ozgur; Yilmaz, H. Gulsen; Tacyildiz, BrahimObjectives: Blank cartridge guns that are used as weapons of defense are being used widely because of gaps in the law. Both the original weapon and those with modifications are able to cause serious injury. Materials and Methods: In this study, seven patients who sustained abdominal injuries caused by blank cartridge guns which were modified to shoot metal shot, during 2005, were studied. All patients had laporotomies with the diagnosis of penetrating abdominal trauma. Operative findings, postoperative complications, Abdominal Trauma Index, Injury Severity Score and Trauma Score were recorded. Results: There was one woman and six men in the cohort. The mean age was 27.1 +/- 17.2 years. Six patients were younger than 30 years old. Two patients had a single organ injury, one patient had a large abdominal wall defect, while four patients sustained multiple organ injuries. The mean length of hospitalization was 9.6 +/- 2.1 days. Postoperative complications (wound infection and pneumonia) were seen in two patients. The mean scores of Abdominal Trauma Index, Injury Severity Score and Trauma Score were as 12.3 +/- 9.3; 9.15 +/- 5.9; 12.7 +/- 1.6 respectively. Conclusion: Although blank cartridge guns are accepted as harmless, physicians should be aware of the risk of serious injuries threatening human life. Legislative action should be taken to lessen the impact of these weapons.Öğe Perforated gastric carcinoma(Kare Publ, 2006) Korkmaz, Ozgur; Yilmaz, H. Gulsen; Tacyildiz, IbrahimOBJECTIVES In this study, we aimed to discus morbidity, mortality and surgical procedures of the patients who had been operated on with the indication of gastric tumour perforation. METHODS A total of 29 patients (25 males, 4 females; median age 54.31 +/- 14.42 years) who underwent emergency operation were studied. The following variables were assessed: pathololic features, rate of morbidity and mortality, causes of reoperation and factors related with outcome. RESULTS A total of 29 (12%) patients with perforated gastric carcinoma were retrospectively reviewed among 241 consecutive cases of gastric cancer operated in Dicle University General Surgery Department. The complication rate was 51.7 percent. Initially, 22 patients had palliative operations. Three patients had a potentially curative procedure at the emergency operation. Overall, post-operative mortality was 20.7% (6/29). CONCLUSION In our region, gastric cancer perforation is encountered in younger patients with higher proportion. The stage of the tumor is advanced and the diagnosis of peritonitis is delayed. So, these factors decrease the rates of curative surgery.Öğe SCHWANNOMA OF THE BREAST: REPORT OF A CASE(Aves, 2007) Korkmaz, Ozgur; Yilmaz, Hatice Gulsen; Ozekinci, Selver; Tacyildiz, Ibrahim Halil; Akgun, YilmazSchwannoma is a slow-growing tumor that frequently occurs in the extremities, the trunk and the head region. We report a case of benign schwannoma of the breast in a 76-year-old woman. The palpable mass was localized in the upper outer quadrant of the right breast. Complete excision of the mass was done and pathology revealed a schwannoma.Öğe An unusual etiology for adult intussusception: post-vagotomy jejunojejunal invagination(Turkish Soc Gastroenterology, 2010) Korkmaz, Ozgur; Kece, Can; Yilmaz, Hatice Gulsen; Akgun, Yilmaz[Abstract Not Available]
