They are also important factors for increased morbidity and mortality. The aims of this study were to evaluate the number of urinary tract infections, to identify possible donor/receiver-based risk factors, and to evaluate the impact of these infections on graft function. Materials and Methods: Medical records of patients who had undergone kidney transplant between 2010 and 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Our study included 145 patients (49 women [33.8%] and 96 men [66.2%]), with mean age of 35.2 +/- 12.4 years. There were 105 episodes of urinary tract infections in 55 of 145 patients (37.9%) during the first year after transplant. Female sex (P = .001), glomerulonephritis as primary kidney disease (P = .04), pretransplant diabetes (P = .05), and presence of ureteral stent (P = .03) were significant risk factors for the development of urinary tract infections. The most frequent pathogens identified were Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Mean glomerular filtration rate at 12 months was significantly lower in patients with urinary tract infection than in patients without infection (80 +/- 25 vs 68 +/- 28 mL/min; P = .006). Conclusions: In kidney transplant recipients, urinary tract infections are common complications and have negative outcomes on graft function. These infections remain an important disease that requires frequent investigations and new ways of approach for prevention.Item THE CHANGE OF FRONTAL QRS-T ANGLE AFTER RENAL TRANSPLANTATION IN DIALYSIS PATIENTS(2020) Acibuca, Aynur; Yilmaz, Mustafa; Okar, Sefa; Kus, Murat; Caliskan, Kenan; Torer, Nihan; Torun, Dilek; Moray, Gokhan; Muderrisoglu, Haldun; Haberal, Mehmet A.Item LIVER TRANSPLANTATION FOR PRIMARY SCLEROSING CHOLANGITIS(2020) Akdur, Aydincan; Karakaya, Emre; Bovyat, Fatih; Yildirim, Sedat; Caliskan, Kenan; Haberal, MehmetItem LONG-TERM RESULTS OF LIVING DONOR KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION(2020) Akdur, Aydincan; Karakayali, Feza Yarbug; Caliskan, Kenan; Moray, Gokhan; Arslan, Gulnaz; Haberal, Mehmet A.Item RISK FACTORS FOR URINARY TRACT INFECTION AFTER KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION: A RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS(2019) Tekkarismaz, Nihan; Ozelsancak, Ruya; Micozkadioglu, Hasan; Caliskan, Kenan; Demiroglu, Yusuf Ziya; Haberal, MehmetItem Deceased-donor transplantation activities in Turkey(2019) Haberal, Mehmet; Akdur, Aydincan; Moray, Gokhan; Karakayali, Feza Yarbug; Yildirim, Sedat; Caliskan, Kenan; Torgay, Adnan; Arslan, GulnazItem Deceased-donor transplantation activities at Baskent University(2019) Haberal, Mehmet; Kirnap, Mahir; Akdur, Aydincan; Moray, Gokhan; Karakayali, Feza Yarbug; Yildirim, Sedat; Caliskan, Kenan; Torgay, Adnan; Arslan, GulnazItem Unusual Findings in Appendectomy Specimens of Adults: Retrospective Analyses of 1466 Patients and a Review of Literature(2014) Yabanoglu, Hakan; Caliskan, Kenan; Aytac, Huseyin Ozgur; Turk, Emin; Karagulle, Erdal; Kayaselcuk, Fazilet; Tarim, Mehmet AkinBackground: Diseases and tumors of the appendix vermiformis are very rare, except acute appendicitis. Objectives: This retrospective study was conducted to document the unusual findings in appendectomy specimens. Patients and Methods: Data of 1466 adult patients were gathered retrospectively. Appendectomy was performed in 1169 and in 297 patients following a diagnosis of acute appendicitis and during other abdominal operations, respectively. The data of 57 (3.88 %) patients who were pathologically reported to have unusual appendix findings were retrospectively collected. The records were analyzed according to patients' age, gender, clinical presentations, operative reports, pathological reports and follow up. Results: Unusual pathologic examination findings were detected in the appendectomy specimens of 57 patients with a mean age of 48.34 +/- 19. Twenty-nine patients (50.8%) were male and 28 (49.2%) were female. Normal appendix tissues were observed in specimens of 26 (45.6%) patients and inflamed appendix in 31 (54.3%). The most common unusual finding was parasitic diseases of the intestine. Pathological diagnosis of malignancy and benign features were reported in specimens of 14 and 43 patients, respectively. Macroscopic evaluation of appendectomy specimens during surgery might result in negligence of the presence of unusual pathology. Conclusions: Even if the macroscopic appearance of the specimen is normal or acute appendicitis, we suggest routine histopathological examination.Item Mucormycosis with Orbital Apex Syndrome in a Renal Transplant Recipient(2015) Haberal, Mehmet; Kursun, Ebru; Turunc, Tuba; Demiroglu, Yusuf Ziya; Yabanoglu, Hakan; Demir, Senay; Caliskan, Kenan; Moray, Gokhan; Arslan, HandeMucormycosis is a rarely encountered invasive fungal infection with high mortality. Solid organ transplantation is one of the risk factors for mucormycosis. Mucormycosis can be classified in six different groups according to the anatomical localization; rhinocerebral, pulmonary, cutaneous, gastrointestinal, disseminated, and other less common involvements. This paper presented a mucormycosis case with rhinoorbitocerebral involvementin a renal transplantation receiver, which manifested with orbital apex syndrome.Item Laparoscopic Repair of Morgagni Hernia(2015) Arer, Ilker Murat; Yabanoglu, Hakan; Aytac, Huseyin Ozgur; Caliskan, Kenan; Torer, NurkanMorgagni hernia is a congenital herniation of abdominal contents into the thoracic cavity through a retrosternal diaphragmatic defect and make up about 1 % - 5 % of all types of congenital diaphragmatic hernias. Surgical repair of Morgagni hernias is usually indicated when patients are symptomatic and have a high risk of strangulation or incarceration of the contained viscera. 71-year-old male patient admitted to emergency department with a 2-day history of abdominal pain, vomiting and obstipation. Laparoscopic repair for Morgagni hernia was performed. Laparoscopic repair for Morgagni hernia with mesh repair is secure, satisfactory and easily performed.
