Hemangiomas of the breast are incidentally seen in mastectomy cases. Diagnosis of these tumors using conventional imaging methods is rare. Core needle biopsy and aspiration biopsy cannot help the diagnosis. Case: A 69-year-old woman presented to the outpatient clinic with a sudden hematoma on a slow-growing mass in the right breast with a 1-year history. After breast ultrasonography and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging supported a 5 × 4 × 2 cm hemangioma, fine needle aspiration biopsy was performed and sent to pathology after excisional biopsy because of the hematinic material. The pathological findings of the mass were positive for breast hemangioma, and no disease recurrence has been observed in the last six months. Conclusions: Preoperative diagnosis of breast hemangiomas is difficult. Surgical excision is recommended if the v...

Material and Method: Patients were scanned retrospectively using the hospital database. Patients who underwent ERCP due to malignancy, biliary tract injury and benign strictures were excluded from the study. 61 patients who were not successful with basic ERCP techniques such as endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) and mechanical lithotripsy (ML) were included in the study. 750 mg/day UDCA was given to the patients for three months and plastic stent was applied. After the treatment, ERCP was tried again. Results: Among the patients who underwent stent+UDCA, three (4.9%) patients had perioperative bleeding, one (1.6%) patient had peroperative perforation, four (6.6%...

Gereç ve Yöntem Hastaların yaş, cinsiyet gibi demografik bilgileri, serolojik ve radyolojik tetkik sonuçları, kistlerin sayısı, Gharbi sınıflamasına göre tipi, boyutu, lokalizasyonu, operasyon şekli ve süresi, erken ve geç dönem komplikasyonları, hastanede kalış süreleri, mortalite ve morbidite verileri hastane kayıt sisteminden geriye dönük tarandı ve veri tabanı oluşturularak analiz edildi. Bulgular Hastaların yaş ortalaması 35.28 ±16.12 olup, %42.9’u kadın (6/14) ve %57.1’i erkek (8/14) hastalardan oluşmaktaydı. Hastaların en sık başvuru nedeni sırasıyla ağrı (%57.1) ve sarılık (%21.4) şikayetleriydi. Hastaların tamamına tanı aşamasında (Bilgisayarlı Tomografi) BT ve (Ultra...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of demographic characteristics, biochemical parameters, amount of blood transfusion, and trauma scores on morbidity in patients with solid organ injury following trauma.Material and Method. One hundred nine patients with solid organ injury due to abdominal trauma during January 2005 and October 2015 were examined retrospectively in the General Surgery Department of Dicle University Medical Faculty. Patients’ age, gender, trauma interval time, vital status (heart rate, arterial tension, and respiratory rate), hematocrit (HCT) value, serum area aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) values, presence of free abdominal fluid in USG, trauma mechanism, extra-abdominal system injuries, injured solid organs and their number, degree of injury in abdominal CT, number of blood transfusions, duration of hospital stay, time of operation (for those undergoing operation), trauma scores (ISS, RTS, Glasgow ...

In this study, we aimed to retrospectively evaluate the patients who underwent emergency upper GI endoscopy for foreign body ingestion in our clinic. Methods: Between 2015 and 2022, we evaluated 68 patients who underwent emergency upper GI endoscopy with a prediagnosis of foreign body ingestion. The evaluation included factors such as age, gender, presenting complaints, foreign body type, localization, and treatment parameters. Results: Out of the 68 patients included in the study, 21 (30.89%) were female, and the mean age was 54.00 years. Among them, 43 (63.23%) presented with no active complaints, 23 (33.82%) with dysphagia and odynophagia, and two (2.94%) with vomiting. The swallowed objects were classified as follows: coin (n=2), pin (n=5), battery (n=11), drug plaque (n=6), esophageal foreign body (n=7), piece of meat (n=5), chicken bone (n=4), fish bon...
