    Comparison of corifollitropin alfa and daily recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone in poor responder patients undergoing in vitro fertilization cycles
    (2017) Akarsu, S.; Demir, S.; Gode, F.; Işık, A.Z.; 29379660
    Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the effect of corifollitropin alfa (CFA) and recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) in poor-responder patients undergoing antagonist cycles. Materials and Methods: The study was a retrospective analysis of the treatment results of 214 poor responder patients who had been admitted to the In Vitro Fertilization Unit of İzmir Medical Park Hospital between November 2014 and November 2016. Intracytoplasmic sperm injections were performed in 38 patients (group 1) with CFA, and the remaining 176 (group 2) with rFSH for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation. Results: The age, body mass index, anti-müllerian hormone level, duration of infertility, duration of induction and antral follicle number were similar in the two groups. There was no difference in the total aspirated oocyte counts, mature oocyte ratio, fertilization rate, implantation rate, and clinical pregnancy rates between the two groups. The implantation rate was 9/38 (23.6%) in group 1 and 42/176 (23.8%) in group 2, whereas the clinical pregnancy rates were 16.3% and 17.2%, respectively. Conclusion: No difference was found in terms of oocyte count, fertilization rate, implantation rate, and clinical pregnancy rates of CFA or rFSH use in the antagonist cycles in poor-responder patients. © 2017 by Turkish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology.

    Tunnel Widening After Single- Versus Double-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Randomized 8-Year Follow-Up Study
    (2017) Beyaz, S.; Guler, U. O.; Demir, S.; Yuksel, S.; Cinar, B. M.; Ozkac, G.; Akpinar, S.; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5788-5116; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5375-635X; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7906-5039; 28840325; K-8820-2019; AAJ-4844-2021; AAL-4474-2021
    The purpose of this study was to compare the single-bundle (SB) and double-bundle (DB) surgical techniques for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with regard to tunnel widening, isokinetic muscle strength, and clinical outcomes over an 8-year follow-up period. This study included 31 patients with ACL injury who underwent ACL reconstruction via the SB (n = 16) or the DB (n = 15) technique. Isokinetic and concentric strength measurements of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles were conducted at postoperative 6 months and postoperative 8 years, and 3D-CT scans of the knee joints were performed on the 2nd, 3rd and 6th month, and the 8th year postoperatively. Clinical evaluations were performed at 8 years postoperatively with the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC), Tegner, and Lysholm knee scoring systems. There was marked widening of the parts of the femoral tunnel close to the knee joint in both the SD and the DB groups. There was no difference between the two groups in terms of clinical results and isometric muscle strength at postoperative 8 years; however, there was a significant difference between the preoperative and 6 months postoperative clinical and strength results in both group (P < 0.05). There was no difference between the groups in IKDC score, Lysholm score, Tegner activity scale, and anterior drawer test at postoperative 8 years. On evaluation of the anteromedial bundles alone, the DB group had greater widening than the SB group. In this study, we have found that the tunnels continue to enlarge after 6 months. However, that has no impact in patients comfort and that did not made any change in our daily routine. On the other hand, we found that the reconstruction of the double-band ligament technique is useless for non-professional athletes.
