Item Gastric Polyps: A Retrospective Analysis of Endoscopic Biopsies: A Single Center Study in Central Anatolia(2019) Erinanc, Hilal; Unler, Gulhan Kanat; Gokturk, Huseyin Savas; Ozgur, Gulsum TekeObjective: Gastric polyps accounts for %6 of gastrointestinal endoscopy. Geographical differences occur in the prevalence of them. We aimed to determine the spectrum of gastric polyps. Matherial and method: Data including demographics, medical history and histological characteristics of polyps and Helicobacter pylori were obtained retrospectively. Results: Of the 24568 endoscopies performed, 184 patients were identified as having gastric polyps. The most frequently encountered were hyperplastic polyps (62%), followed by fundic gland polyps (19,3%) and adenomatous polyps (3, 8%). The corpus (36,4 %) was the most common site and the antrum (25%) was the second. Female patients were more affected than male patients (64,7%). Majority of the polyps (88%) were smaller than 1 cm in diameter. The mean age was 62,10+13,4 (range:30-90) years. Fundic gland polyps were observed at younger age (mean age: 56,58) compared to other gastric polyps. Intestinal metaplasia was more frequently encountered in hyperplastic polyps than in fundic gland polyps. Conclusion: In this study, hyperplastic polyps are the most common in our population however there was no association between the hyperplastic polyps and H. pylori infection. H. pylori infection ratio was similar in both hyperplastic polyps and fundic gland polyps however all of the patient have chronic gastritis. This findings suggest chronic gastritis also play role in hyperplastic polyps development. The study also showed that H. Pylori infection is still common in our country and further studies need to find efficacy of H.pylori treatment.Item A Rare Cause of Acute Dysphagia: Abscess of the Base of the Tongue(2015) Ozgur, Gulsum Teke; Akdogan, Mehmet Volkan; Unler, Gulhan Kanat; Gokturk, Huseyin Savas; 25802771Dysphagia represents a difficulty in passage of solid or liquid foods from the oral cavity into the stomach and is considered as an alarm symptom of gastrointestinal system. It often indicates an organic disease and needs to be explained. In this paper, a case of 61-year-old manwith posterior tongue abscess is presented.Item Is there any association between colonic polyps and gastric intestinal metaplasia?(2016) Unler, Gulhan Kanat; Ozgur, Gulsum Teke; Gokturk, Huseyin Savas; Korkmaz, Huseyin; Erinanc, Ozgur Hilal; 27210777Background/Aims: Chronic gastritis progression is a multistep process of atrophy, intestinal metaplasia (IM), and dysplasia, which may lead to invasive carcinoma. In this study, we identified an association of colonic polyps with gastric IM in patients undergoing colonoscopy. Materials and Methods: This retrospective case-control, cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary-care institution in Turkey. Pathology and endoscopy reports were reviewed. The study group comprised 400 patients with colonic adenomatous polyps, and the control group comprised 360 patients without colonic adenomatous polyps on colonoscopy. Results: The risk of gastric IM was 1.42-fold higher in the study group (p<0.05). The risk of IM in patients aged >= 50 years with colonic polyps was 3.35-fold higher than in those aged <50 years (p<0.05). The risk of Helicobacter pylori infection in the study group was 1.07-folder higher than that in the control group (p<0.05). H. pylori infection prevalence was higher only in patients with high-grade colonic polyp dysplasia (p<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the proportion of incomplete IM between the groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study observed increased rates of gastric IM with colonic polyps. An increased risk of gastric IM was associated with higher grades of polyp dysplasia.
