    Background and aim: Today, voluntary donation of peripheral blood stem cells by healthy donors for allogeneic hemopoietic cell transplantation is common worldwide. Such donations are associated with small but measurable risks of morbidity and mortality. Most complications are associated with citrate infusion during cell collection. We studied the effects of citrate infusion on the QTc and other vital parameters during and after peripheral stem cell apheresis in volunteers. Method: To ensure that donors were healthy, screening included taking a detailed medical history, physical examination, and laboratory measurements of plasma calcium and magnesium. Corrected QT (QTc) values were assessed using a 12-lead electrocardiographic platform that derived QTc values automatically. Results: In all, 141 apheresis procedures were performed. The mean QTc values at baseline, at 2 and 4 h during the procedure, and at 30 min after the procedure, were 347.6 +/- 59.5, 349.9 +/- 52.8, 391.8 +/- 54.0, and 404.8 +/- 59.2 ms, respectively. The baseline and 2 h QTcs did not differ significantly, but the baseline QTc did differ significantly from the 4 h and 30 min after the procedure values. The plasma levels of calcium and magnesium did not significantly differ before and after the procedure. Conclusion: QTc prolongation may develop during leukopheresis, particularly if the procedure takes more than 2 h. Thus, to enhance donor safety, QTc measurement should be standard for all donors. In addition, any family history of sudden death should be noted, to prevent the development of possible fatal arrhythmia in susceptible donors.

    (2016) Solmaz, Soner; Korur, Asli; Gereklioglu, Cigdem; Asma, Suheyl; Buyukkurt, Nurhilal; Kasar, Mutlu; Yeral, Mahmut; Kozanoglu, Ilknur; Boga, Can; Ozdogu, Hakan; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5086-5593; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0895-4787; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3856-7005; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9580-628X; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8902-1283; AAD-5616-2021; AAE-1457-2021; AAL-3906-2021; ABC-4148-2020; AAD-6222-2021; AAD-5542-2021
    Introduction: Leukemic transformation (LT) of both Philadelphia (Ph) -positive and -negative myeloprolifetarive neoplasms (MPNs) is a well-known subject. However sufficient data are not available in literature from Turkey about the frequency of second malignancies (SMs) except IT in patients with MPNs. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the frequency of SMs in Ph-positive or -negative MPN cases. Materials and Methods: A total of 438 patients diagnosed with classical MPN according to WHO 2008 diagnostic criteria were included in the study. Results: SMs were detected in 15 out of 438 patients (3.4%). In this study, cancer incidence rate was found higher (1149.8/100.000 person-years for males and 540.8/100.000 person-years for females with MPNs) compared with Turkey data. Conclusion: SM frequency is significantly higher than normal population in patients with MPNs. Therefore these patients should be carefully examined for SM symptoms and signs.

    (2016) Buyukkurt, Nurhilal; Kozanoglu, Ilknur; Boga, Can; Ozdogu, Hakan; Yeral, Mahmut; 0000-0002-0895-4787; 0000-0002-5268-1210; 0000-0002-8902-1283; 0000-0002-9580-628X; 0000-0002-9680-1958; AAE-1457-2021; AAE-1241-2021; AAD-6222-2021; AAD-5542-2021; ABC-4148-2020
    Intrahepatic cholestasis, a rare complication of sickle cell anemia, is characterized by marked hyperbilirubinemia, acute hepatic failure, and an often fatal course. In this report, we present patients with homozygous hemoglobin S and one patient with sickle-beta thalassemia disease who have intrahepatic cholestasis. Despite automated red blood cell exchange transfusion, which successfully decreased the hemoglobin S level to less than 30% of total hemoglobin level in the peripheral blood, basic biochemical laboratory examination revealed signs of cholestasis with a serum bilirubin level of up to 50 mg/dL in the first case, 30 mg/dL in the second, and 10 mg/dL in the third. The patients underwent plasma exchange, which improved their clinical condition except one. These cases suggest that plasma exchange may have a role in improving the clinical condition of patients with sickle cell disease complicated with intrahepatic cholestasis (SCIC) that fails to respond to automated red blood cell exchange therapy

    (2018) Kasar, Mutlu; Yeral, Mahmut; Solmaz, Soner; Buyukkurt, Nurhilal; Asma, Suheyl; Gereklioglu, Cigdem; Boga, Can; Ozdogu, Hakan; Basturk, Bilkay; 0000-0003-3856-7005; 0000-0002-9580-628X; 0000-0002-0895-4787; 0000-0001-5335-7976; 0000-0002-8902-1283; 0000-0002-9680-1958; 0000-0002-8784-1974; 29527991; AAL-3906-2021; ABC-4148-2020; AAE-1457-2021; AAI-7831-2021; AAD-6222-2021; AAD-5542-2021; AAD-6918-2021
    Objectives: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant is a curative treatment option for many hematologic diseases. The existence of a fully compatible donor for recipients is the first condition for minimized transplant-related mortality and morbidity. The best donor for hematopoietic stem cell transplant is an HLA-matched sibling donor. The possibility of finding an HLA-matched sibling is less than 30% worldwide. Hematopoietic stem cell transplant is needed for an increasing number of patients every year, but the ability to find a fully compatible donor has limited its use. Materials and Methods: From August 2012 to May 2017, we screened 412 adult patients who required AHSCT and their families for HLA tissue groups who were seen at our center (Baskent University Adana Dr. Turgut Noyan Research and Medical Center Hematology Unit). To screen tissue groups at our center, we perform lowresolution typing for HLA-A, B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB. If an HLA genotype cannot be identified, verification typing is done using high-resolution testing. Results: We found matched family donors in 227 (55%) of 412 patients screened at our center. The ratio of HLAmatched related donors was 83% for 279 patients who received allogeneic stem cell transplant. Conclusions: The likelihood of finding eligible unrelated donors has been gradually increasing, in part due to the development of the National Bone Marrow Bank. However, a careful screening for related donors is still important. Our findings indicate the importance of careful examination of family genealogy and of careful family screening in our region.

    Pathology, Classification, Clinical Manifestations and Prognosis of Langerhan's Cell Histiocytosis: A Single Center Experience
    (2022) Hasbay, Bermal; Kocer, Nazim Emrah; Kayaselcuk, Fazilet; Canpolat, Emine Tuba; Buyukkurt, Nurhilal; Erbay, Ayse
    Objective: The aim of the study is to raise awareness about clinical features, histopathological and radiological analyzes and treatment details of this rare disease. Methods: A total of 55 Langerhans cell histiocytosis patients, diagnosed between the year 2006 and October 2020 in our department were included in the study. The patients were evaluated in terms of age, gender, tumor localization, risk groups, treatment modalities, recurrence, and outcome of the disease. Results: Twenty-three out of 55 patients were children and 32 were adults. The ages of the patients were between 7 months and 72 years. Thirty-seven of the cases were male and 18 were female. The most common clinical complaint in both groups was pain and swelling. The duration between the onset of the patient complaints and admission to the hospital varies between 7 days-12 months in children, and 10 days-23 years in adults. Forty-three of the cases had single organ involvement and 12 had multiorgan involvement. The most frequently affected organ in both groups was bone. Forty of the 55 patients had follow-up data and the treatment modalities are as follows: Nine patients radiotherapy, 8 patients chemotherapy+steroid, 7 patients chemotherapy, 2 patients chemotherapy+radiotherapy+steroid, 1 patient steroid, 2 patients chemotherapy+radiotherapy. Eleven patients were followed up without additional treatment after surgery. Median follow-up from the time of biopsy was 45.9 months in children and 41.9 months in adults. Conclusions: As a result, diagnosis requires a high degree of suspicion and final diagnosis is based on the histological examination of the lesions and biopsies.

    (2022) Ulu, Bahar Uncu; Dal, Mehmet Sinan; Hindilerden, Ipek Yonal; Akay, Olga Meltem; Mehtap, Ozgur; Buyukkurt, Nurhilal; Hindilerden, Fehmi; Gunes, Ahmet Kursad; Yigenoglu, Tugce Nur; Basci, Semih; Cakar, Merih Kizil; Acik, Didar Yanardag; Korkmaz, Serdal; Ulas, Turgay; Ozet, Gulsum; Ferhanoglu, Burhan; Nalcaci, Meliha; Altuntas, Fevzi; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0895-4787; 34514960; AAE-1457-2021
    The prognosis is poor for relapsed or refractory (R/R) classical Hodgkin Lymphoma (cHL) patients. The brentuximab vedotin (Bv) and bendamustine (B) combination has been used as a preferable salvage regimen in R/R cHL patient trials. We retrospectively evaluated response rates, toxicities, and the survival in R/R cHL patients treated with the BvB combination. In a multi-centre real-life study, 61 R/R HL patients received intravenous doses of 1.8 mg/kg Bv on the first day plus 90 mg/m(2) B on the first and second days of a 21-day cycle as a second-line or beyond-salvage regimen. Patients' median age at BvB initiation was 33 (range: 18-76 years). BvB was given as median third-line treatment for a median of four cycles (range: 2-11). The overall and complete response rates were 82% and 68.9%, respectively. After BvB initiation, the median follow-up was 14 months, and one- and two-year overall survival rates were 85% and 72%, respectively. Grade 3/4 toxicities included neutropenia (24.6%), lymphopenia (40%), thrombocytopenia (13%), anaemia (13%), infusion reactions (8.2%), neuropathy (6.5%), and others. The BvB combination could be given as salvage regimen aiming a bridge to autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT), in patients relapse after ASCT or to transplant-ineligible patients with manageable toxicity profiles.
