Item Intravesical BCG Immunotherapy: Sepsis and Multiorgan Failure Developed After Traumatic Catheterization(2014) Cicek, Tufan; Togan, Turhan; Erinanc, Hilal; Ugur, Murat; Gonulalan, Umut; Cifci, Egemen; 0000-0003-1401-6356; AAL-1268-2021Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) instillation is a prophylactic therapy using for treating bladder cancer to prevent tumour progression and recurrence. Both local and systemic complications can arise after the installation. Although local complications are common, this therapy is generally well tolerated. Systemic complications are rarely than local complications but can be fatal. We report a case who died from severe complications such as sepsis, pneumonia, renal failure and granulomatous hepatitis after receiving the first maintanence installation of intravesical BCG immunotherapy for bladder transitional cell carcinoma.Item Transpaeritoneal Laparoscopic Simple Nephrectomy: A Single Center Experience(2014) Cicek, Tufan; Sen, Erhan; Gonen, Murat; Gonulalan, Umut; Kosan, Murat; Ozturk, Bulent; 0000-0003-1944-1722; AAJ-8576-2021; AAA-7140-2021Purpose: In this study, we planned to evaluate the efficacy and perioperative outcomes of transperitoneal laparoscopic simple nephrectomy at Baskent University Konya Application and Research Center. Material and Methods: The demographic and perioperative data of patients who underwent transperitoneal laparoscopic simple nephrectomy at Baskent University Konya Application and Research Center Urology clinic between February 2005 and November 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. Operative time, perioperative laboratory results, the durations of hozpitalization and follow-up, perioperative complications and demographic characteristics of each patient were recorded. Results: Overall, 58 patients were included. 27 patients were male (46%) and 31 patients were female (54%). The mean age was 45.3 +/- 17.12 (6-79). The mean operative time was 104.4 +/- 36.5 (40-185) minutes. The mean hospitalization duration was 2.7 +/- 0.7 (2-5) days. The mean preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin levels were 13.7 +/- 1.74 and 12.4 +/- 1.73 mg/dl, respectively. Postoperative hemoglobin levels were statistically significatly lower than preoperative hemoglobin levels (p<0.001). 4 patients (%6.9) needed blood transfusion. 5 patients had grade I, 4 patients had grade II and 2 patients had grade III complications according to modified Clavien classification system. Conclusion: Transperitoneal laparoscopic simple nephrectomy seems to be a safe and efficacious treatment option as having low complication rates.Item Early and Late Complications of Urinary Diversions after Radical Cystectomy(2016) Kosan, Murat; Gonulalan, UmutOne of the strongest predictive factors for the early and late postoperative complications and morbidity of radical cystectomy is the type of urinary diversion following cystectomy. In this paper, we reviewed English-language literature on urinary diversions after cystectomy and their early and late complications. All types of urinary diversions have potential risks of diversion-related metabolic complications, infection, intestinal obstruction and renal deficiency. Although there is no agreement on the ideal urinary diversion, orthotopic neobladder without an external stoma is the most popular type of diversion in appropriate patients due to the protection of body image. Ileal conduit is another frequently selected urinary diversion for elderly patients with comorbidity. Both orthotopic neobladder and ileal conduits are well tolerated options with low morbidity. Nevertheless, postoperative early and late complications, such as urinary tract infections, pyelonephritis, urinary leakage, stomal stenosis, urolithiasis and morphological changes in the upper urinary tract should be kept in mind.
