Item Predictive Factors Affecting the Success of Nephrectomy for the Treatment of Nephrogenic Hypertension: Multicenter Study(2021) Vuruskan, Ediz; Ercil, Hakan; Unal, Umut; Alma, Ergun; Anil, Hakan; Sumbul, Hilmi Erdem; Deniz, Mehmet Eflatun; Goren, Mehmet Resit; 33873196Introduction: The aim of our study is to evaluate the predictive factors affecting the success of treatment with nephrectomy in patients with poorly functioning kidney and nephrogenic hypertension. Methods: Data for patients who underwent nephrectomy with a diagnosis of nephrogenic hypertension in 3 centers between May 2010 and January 2020 were analyzed. In the postoperative period, if the blood pressure (BP) was below 140/90 mm Hg without medical treatment, it was accepted as complete response; if the arterial BP was below 140/90 mm Hg with medical treatment or less medication, it was accepted as partial response; and if BP did not decrease to normal values, it was accepted as unresponsive. Demographic characteristics, duration of hypertension, preoperative and postoperative BP values, and presence of metabolic syndrome were statistically evaluated. Results: Our study consisted of 91 patients with a mean preoperative hypertension duration of 23.3 +/- 12.1 months. Among patients, 42 (46.2%) had complete response, 18 (19.8%) had partial response, and 31 (34.0%) had no response. Preoperative systolic and diastolic BP values were not effective on treatment success (p = 0.071, p = 0.973, respectively), but the increase in age and hypertension duration (p = 0.030 and p < 0.001, respectively) and the presence of metabolic syndrome (p = 0.002) significantly decreased the complete response rates. Conclusions: Preoperative hypertension duration, advanced age, and presence of metabolic syndrome are predictive factors affecting the response to treatment in patients who undergo nephrectomy due to nephrogenic hypertension.Item Papillary renal cell carcinoma within a renal oncocytoma: Case report of very rare coexistence(2014) Ozer, Cevahir; Goren, Mehmet Resit; Egilmez, Tulga; Bal, Nebil; 25553171Renal oncocytomas accounts for 3% to 9% of primary renal neoplasms. The coexistence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) within the oncocytoma is extremely rare. We report the case of an asyptomatic 74-year-old man with papillary RCC within oncocytoma managed with left radical nephrectomy.Item Author response: Papillary RCC and oncocytoma: Longer follow-up reported(2015) Ozer, Cevahir; Goren, Mehmet Resit; Egilmez, Tulga; Bal, Nebil; 26085864Item Bilateral renal leiomyoma with 5 year follow-up: Case report(2015) Goren, Mehmet Resit; Erbay, Gurcan; Ozer, Cevahir; Goren, Vinil; Bal, Nebil; 26664510Renal leiomyomas are exceptionally rare benign tumours of the kidney. Although the renal leiomyomas usually do not metastasize, the differential diagnosis between renal leiomyomas and malign lesions (leiomyosarcoma or renal cell carcinoma) cannot be done by radiological examinations, but is possible by histological examination. Surgery is the preferred treatment. After surgery, the prognosis is excellent without recurrence. Although uterine leiomyomas can be multicentric, renal leiomyomas have been single lesions. We report an incidentally detected case of bilateral renal leiomyoma in a 50-year-old woman with a 5-year follow-up. We also review the literature and discuss clinical, radiological and histological features of renal leiomyomas.Item Distribution and number of Cajal-like cells in testis tissue with azoospermia(2017) Hasirci, Eray; Turunc, Tahsin; Bal, Nebil; Goren, Mehmet Resit; Celik, Huseyin; Kervancioglu, Enis; Dirim, Ayhan; Tekindal, Mustafa Agah; Ozkardes, Hakan; 0000-0002-7936-2172; 0000-0003-2898-485X; 0000-0002-2001-1386; 0000-0002-7277-449X; 0000-0002-4060-7048; 0000-0002-4147-2966; 0000-0003-3465-9092; 28359405; ABD-4332-2020; AAJ-5689-2021; Y-6143-2019; AAH-1052-2020; U-9270-2018; AAI-7997-2021; AAA-3033-2021; AAM-4475-2021We investigated the number and distribution of Cajal-like cells in patients with azoospermia. A total of 99 patients with non-obstructive azoospermia were divided into subgroups [19 patientsin hypospermatogenesis group (S1), 40 patients in maturation arrest group (S2), 20 patients in a Sertoli cell-only syndrome (S3), and 20 patients in a testicular atrophy and fibrosis group (S4)], and 20 patients with obstructive azoospermia group (SO). Sections stained with a c-kit antibody were studied by light microscopy to determine the number and distribution of Cajal-like cells in peritubular and perivascular areas of testis. The number of Cajal-like cells were higher in all the non-obstructive groups than in the obstructive group (S0: 2.43 cells/mm(2), S1: 3.14 cells/mm(2), S2: 4.00 cells/mm(2), S3: 4.57 cells/mm(2), S4: 3.86 cells/mm(2)) but statistically significantly different (p < 0.05) in the S2 and S3 subgroups only. Distribution of Cajal-like cells were similar in all groups. The number and distribution of Cajal-like cells in non obstructive groups suggest that these cells may affect spermatogenesis. This cellular type can be responsible for the regulation of cellular motility or spermatogenesis. Electrophysiological and electron microscopic studies are needed to better define morphology and function of Cajal-like cells in the testis, especially totally the normal testis tissue.
