    (2015) Kilic, Dalokay; Uysal, Cagri; Akdur, Aydincan; Kayipmaz, Cagri; Tepeoglu, Merih; Boyvat, Fatih; 0000-0002-9894-8005; 0000-0002-8726-3369; 0000-0001-6236-0050; 25742838; H-7700-2019; F-4230-2011; AAK-5222-2021; AAA-3068-2021
    We report a very rare case of a 55-year-old man with chest wall metastatic tumor caused by seeding of hepatocellular carcinoma after percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for hepatic tumor 42 months after the initial operation. The patient was managed with aggressive full-thickness chest wall resection and reconstruction with a Prolene (Ethicon, Somerville, NJ) and methyl methacrylate sandwich graft and subsequent musculocutaneous free-flap transposition.

    A Comparison of Two Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Techniques with Respect to Acute Kidney Injury
    (2015) Beyazpinar, Deniz Sarp; Gultekin, Bahadir; Kayipmaz, Afsin Emre; Kayipmaz, Cagri; Sezgin, Atilla; Giray, Tufan Akin; Kavalci, Cemil; 0000-0003-2529-2946; 0000-0003-4619-4034; AAC-2597-2020; AGG-1308-2022; ABA-7388-2021; ABA-9675-2021; AGQ-5015-2022
    Background: This study aims to compare the conventional coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery and on-pump beating heart bypass grafting (OPBHB) with respect to acute kidney injury and subsequent dialysis requirement. Methods: Between January 2012 and October 2013, medical records of 77 patients who underwent conventional CABG and 76 patients who underwent OPBHB for coronary artery disease in our clinic were retrospectively analyzed. Results: There was no significant difference in preoperative renal function test results between the groups. However, there was a significant difference in cardiopulmonary bypass time and length of intensive care unit stay (p<0.05). Seven (9.21%) of 76 patients in OPBHB group and 11 (14.28%) of 77 patients in CABG group developed acute kidney injury; however, it did not indicate a statistically significant difference between the groups (p>0.05). One patient in OPBHB group and four patients in CABG group also needed dialysis. Conclusion: Our study results suggest that OPBHB is superior to the conventional CABG in terms of acute kidney injury and, more importantly, development of acute renal failure in patients with a serum creatinine level of 1-1.3 mg/dL.

    Decompression of Left Ventricle During Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Support as a Step to Transplant
    (2016) Gultekin, Bahadir; Ersoy, Ozgur; Akkaya, Ilknur; Kayipmaz, Cagri; Pirat, Aras; Sezgin, Atilla; 27805509; ABA-7388-2021
    Objectives: Left ventricular distention can be recognized during the use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as a key complication. Left ventricular decompression may decrease pulmonary pressure, minimize ventricular distention, and allow myocardial recovery. Materials and Methods: We applied venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to 4 patients while on a wait list for cardiac transplant. Results: Two patients with severe heart failure developed high end-diastolic pressures leading to left ventricular distention. We used atrial venting methods to decrease the pressure. Conclusions: Here, we discussed the strategies to manage ventricular distention by conservative, interventional, and surgical means.
