Çalışmada ayrıca yöntemin, postoperatif serum kalsiyum, parathormon seviyelerindeki değişimleri üzerindeki etkileri incelenerek, Çukurova Üniversitesi Genel Cerrahi Kliniği olarak kendi verilerimizi literatüre sunma amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Ocak 2012 ile Şubat 2017 yılları arasında Çukurova Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Genel Cerrahi AD polikliniğine başvuran ve çalışmaya dahil edilen 527 hasta nöromonitorizasyon kullanılan (Grup1; n=241), nöromonitorizasyon kullanılmayan (Grup 2; n=286) olmak üzere randomize edilerek iki gruba ayrıldı. Hastaların, yaş, cinsiyet, postoperatif patoloji sonuçları, yapılan ameliyatlar, preoperatif ve postoperatif serum kalsiyum ve parathormon değerleri, sinir bulma süresi, operasyon süresi, geçici ve kalıcı ses kısıklıkları ve komplikasyonlar istatiksel olarak incelendi. Bulgular: Monitör kullanılan ile kullanılmayan gruplar arasında geçici ve kalıcı ses kısıklığı açısından istatistiksel anlamlı fark saptanmadı. Operasyon öncesi ve sonrası serum kalsiyum ve Parathormon seviyeleri arasında monitör kullanılmayan grupta belirgin düşme tespit edilmesine rağmen istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark saptanmadı. Gruplar arasında sinir bulma ve operasyon süreleri karşılaştırıldığında monitör kullanılan grupta anlamlı şekilde düşük saptandı. Sonuç: İOSM’nin kullanımının sinir bulma aşamasını hızlandırdığı ve buna bağlı olarak operasyon süresini kısalttığı gösterilmiştir. İstatistiksel olarak anlamlı olmasa da sinir hasarını önlemede olumlu katkı sağlamıştır.Objective: Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve injury is an important complication that is rare but disruption of life quality when occurs. The aim of this prospective randomized study is to compare the results of intraoperative nerve monitoring (IOSM) and conventional visual nerve dissection (IOSM) during thyroidectomy. We also aimed that determine the effect of IONM on the postoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy rate, duration of nerve finding and operation time, changes of postoperative serum calcium and Parathormone levels and presenting our own data to the literature as Çukurova University General Surgery Clinic. Materials and Methods: 527 patients were chosen and included to study between January 2012 and February 2017 from Çukurova University General surgery clinic. Patients randomized into two groups which are neuromonitorisation group (Group 1; n = 241) and no neuromonitorisation group (Group 2; n = 286). Patients' age, gender, postoperative pathology results, surgical procedures, preoperative and postoperative serum calcium and parathormone values, duration of nerve finding, duration of operation, temporary and permanent hoarseness were evaluated statistically. Results : There was no statistically significant difference between the groups with and without monitor using. There was a significant decrease in serum calcium and parathormone levels before and after the operation but there was no significant difference between the groups. In terms of duration of nerve finding and operation time significantly lower in the monitor used group. Conclusion: The use of the IOSM has been shown to speed up the nerve finding phase and thus shorten the duration of the operation. Although not statistically significant, it contributed positively to the prevention of nerve damage

The Effect of Lymph Node Dissection on Gallstone Formation in Patients Undergoing Total Gastrectomy for Gastric Adenocarcinoma

WOS: 000485683800007Objective: Formation of gallbladder stone is frequently observed after resection for gastric cancer. Extended lymph dissection is shown to be among risk factors. Materials and Methods: We compared patients with limited lymphatic dissection (D1) and extended lymphatic dissection (D2) in terms of gallstone formation and complications. Results: We observed gallbladder stone formation in 13 (12.8%) patients. Gallbladder stone formation was observed in 11.1% of patients in the D1 group and in 14.3% of patients in the D2 group, but no statistically significant difference was found between lymphatic dissections. Of 13 patients, 5 (38.4%) were symptomatic and 3 (23.1%) developed choledocholithiasis. Five patients who were symptomatic were operated without any problems. The groups did not show a statistically significant difference in terms of cumulative survival times. While patients who underwent D2 dissection had more formed gallbladder stone, there were no significant differences between the groups. Conclusion: The complications related to gallbladder stone developed after gastrectomy can be safely managed

Mide kanserini taklit eden primer mide tüberkülozu

Daha önceden herhangi bilinen bir hastalığı olmayan yemeklerden sonra epigastrik ağrı ve kilo kaybı şikayeti olan, radyolojik ve endoskopik olarak mide kanseri düşünülen ancak endoskopik biyopsi ile tanı konulamayan 42 yaşında kadın hastaya laparotomi ile primer mide tüberkülozu tanısı konuldu. Anti-tüberküloz tedavi sonrası klinik, radyolojik ve endoskopik tam yanıt elde edildi.A 42-year-old female patient with no previous known diseases who had complaints of postprandial epigastric pain and weight loss and who could not be diagnosed by endoscopic biopsy, although gastric cancer was suspected radiologically and endoscopically, was diagnosed with primary gastric tuberculosis by laparotomy and frozen section. Following anti-tuberculosis treatment, a complete clinical, radiological, and endoscopic response was achieved

Body mass index and complications following major gastrointestinal surgery: a prospective, international cohort study and meta-analysis.

AIM: Previous studies reported conflicting evidence on the effects of obesity on outcomes after gastrointestinal surgery. The aims of this study were to explore the relationship of obesity with major postoperative complications in an international cohort and to present a meta-analysis of all available prospective data. METHODS: This prospective, multicentre study included adults undergoing both elective and emergency gastrointestinal resection, reversal of stoma or formation of stoma. The primary end-point was 30-day major complications (Clavien-Dindo Grades III-V). A systematic search was undertaken for studies assessing the relationship between obesity and major complications after gastrointestinal surgery. Individual patient meta-analysis was used to analyse pooled results. RESULTS: This study included 2519 patients across 127 centres, of whom 560 (22.2%) were obese. Unadjusted major complication rates were lower in obese vs normal weight patients (13.0% vs 16.2%, respectively), but this did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.863) on multivariate analysis for patients having surgery for either malignant or benign conditions. Individual patient meta-analysis demonstrated that obese patients undergoing surgery for malignancy were at increased risk of major complications (OR 2.10, 95% CI 1.49-2.96, P < 0.001), whereas obese patients undergoing surgery for benign indications were at decreased risk (OR 0.59, 95% CI 0.46-0.75, P < 0.001) compared to normal weight patients. CONCLUSIONS: In our international data, obesity was not found to be associated with major complications following gastrointestinal surgery. Meta-analysis of available prospective data made a novel finding of obesity being associated with different outcomes depending on whether patients were undergoing surgery for benign or malignant disease
