    Importance of Laparoscopy in Predicting Complete Cytoreduction at Advanced Stage Ovarian Cancer
    (2022) Durdag, Gulsen Dogan; Alemdaroglu, Songul; Baran, Safak Yilmaz; Serbetcioglu, Gonca Coban; Ozmete, Ozlem; Ezer, Ali; Celik, Husnu; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4335-6659
    Purpose Laparoscopy has been used in evaluation of ovarian cancer to assess the extent and surgical resectability of the disease, and to avoid futile laparotomy, where primary cytoreduction is not suitable. Aim of this study is to investigate the contribution of laparoscopy in predicting 'no gross residue' in advanced stage ovarian cancer. Methods Data of advanced stage ovarian cancer patients, who underwent diagnostic laparoscopy for prediction of complete cytoreduction due to an alternative model, are analyzed retrospectively. Accordingly, in the absence of obvious mesenteric retraction or extensive tumoral implants on small intestine in laparoscopic assessment, cases were deemed surgically resectable, and the operation was continued with laparotomy to achieve complete cytoreduction. Clinical features of the patients, surgical details, complete and optimal cytoreduction rates, and perioperative complications were evaluated. Results Out of 243 patients with advanced stage ovarian/tubal/peritoneal cancer, laparoscopy was performed at 93 patients, 77 of whom underwent primary cytoreduction subsequently. Complete cytoreduction (no gross residue) and optimal cytoreduction (< 1 cm residual tumor) rates were 75.3 and 100%, respectively. None of the patients had suboptimal surgery. Morbidity and mortality rates were acceptable. Conclusion Laparoscopic evaluation prior to cytoreductive surgery can highly contribute to prediction of complete or optimal cytoreduction in suitable patients. However, experience and skills of the surgeon, as well as technical equipment of the center, may affect surgery; therefore, the model to predict residual tumor should be individualized according to the set up and the surgical team of each center.

    (2021) Dogan Durdag, Gulsen; Alemdaroglu, Songul; Aka Bolat, Filiz; Yilmaz Baran, Safak; Yuksel Simsek, Seda; Celik, Husnu; 0000-0002-5064-5267; 0000-0003-4335-6659; 0000-0001-5874-7324; 0000-0003-3191-9776; 0000-0003-1185-9227; 33608802; AAI-9594-2021; AAI-8400-2021; AAK-7016-2021
    Purpose Surgery consists the main treatment of endometrial cancer; however, decision of lypmhadenectomy is controversial. Intra-operative frozen section (FS) is commonly used in guiding surgical staging; nevertheless, there are different reports regarding its adequacy and reliability. Aim of this study is to assess accuracy of FS in predicting paraffin section (PS) results in patients with endometrium cancer. Methods Data of 223 cases, who were operated for endometrial cancer at a tertiary hospital in 2012-2019, were analyzed retrospectively. Histological type, grade, tumor diameter, depth of myometrial invasion, and cervical and adnexal involvement in frozen and paraffin section were evaluated. Positive and negative predictive values and accuracy of frozen results in predicting paraffin results for each parameter was assessed. Statistical significance was taken as 0.05 in all tests. Results Accuracy of FS in predicting PS results were 76.23% for histology, 75.45% for grade, 85.31% for depth of myometrial invasion, and 95.45% for tumor diameter. Surgery, based on FS results, caused undertreatment in 4 patients, while metastatic lymph node ratios were found in only 35.3-50.0% of cases who had high risk parameters at FS. Conclusion Our FS results have reasonable accuracy rates in predicting PS results, in comparison with the previous literature. However, even if the high risk parameters detected in FS predict PS accurately, absence of lymph node involvement in all cases with high risk parameters indicates that FS-based triage cannot prevent unnecessary lymphadenectomies.

    Laparoscopic para-aortic lymphadenectomy: Technique and surgical outcomes
    (2021) Durda, Gulsen Dogan; Alemdaroglu, Songul; Baran, Safak Yilmaz; Yaginc, Didem Alkas; Simsek, Seda Yuksel; Celik, Husnu; 0000-0003-4335-6659; 0000-0001-5874-7324; 0000-0001-8309-3537; 0000-0003-1185-9227; 32961327; AAI-8400-2021; AAK-2461-2021; AAL-1923-2021
    Objective: Pelvic and para-aortic lymph node dissection is an important part of staging surgery. Aim of this study is to evaluate perioperative outcomes of patients, who underwent laparoscopic para-aortic lymphadenectomy for gynecological cancer in a single center over a period of 7 years, based on body mass index (BMI), and to present the surgical technique in steps. Methods: Data of patients who underwent para-aortic lymphadenectomy at gynecological oncology department of a tertiary center in between March 2013 and July 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were evaluated in two groups according to their BMI (< 30 kg/m(2) as non-obese and >= 30 kg/m(2) as obese groups). Surgical technique is described in steps. Perioperative outcomes of the two groups were evaluated. Results: A total of 230 patients were included in the study. BMI was >= 30 at 58.46 % of the patients. Perioperative features were not significantly affected by the patient's BMI with the presented surgical technique, however, collected para-aortic lymph node numbers were higher in the group with BMI <30, though sufficient number of lymph nodes were achieved in both groups. Conclusion: Although some technical difficulties may be encountered, laparoscopic para-aortic lymphadenectomy is feasable in gynecologic oncological surgery independent of BMI. However, surgical experience is important. (C) 2020 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.

    (2020) Yilmaz Baran, Safak; Alemdaroglu, Songul; Durdag, Gulsen Dogan; Yetkinel, Selcuk; Yuksel Simsek, Seda; Kalayci, Hakan; Simsek, Erhan; 0000-0003-4335-6659; 0000-0002-5064-5267; 0000-0002-2165-9168; 32037908; AAK-7016-2021; AAK-7016-2021; AAK-7016-2021; AAK-7016-2021; AAK-7016-2021
    Objective: This study evaluated the association between proteinuria levels and maternal, and perinatal outcomes of preeclampsia patients and determined the cutoff values for predicting severe complications. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the records of 412 patients with proteinuric preeclampsia. Results: Median proteinuria levels were significantly higher in patients with severe maternal and adverse perinatal outcomes than in those without such outcomes, except in cases of placental abruption and late preterm delivery. Conclusion: Proteinuria levels may aid in diagnosing preeclampsia and indicating early intervention. The revised guidelines do not suggest that proteinuria encountered during pregnancy is clinically insignificant.

    (2020) Yuksel, Seda; Serbetcioglu, Gonca Coban; Alemdaroglu, Songul; Yetkinel, Selcuk; Durdag, Gulsen Dogan; Simsek, Erhan; Celik, Husnu; 0000-0002-5064-5267; 0000-0002-3285-5519; 0000-0003-4335-6659; 0000-0002-2165-9168; 31610294; AAK-7016-2021; AAI-9594-2021; AAI-9974-2021; AAI-8400-2021; AAL-1530-2021
    Objective: The objective of this retrospective observational study is to analyse the properties of laparoscopic hysterectomy cases that are performed for benign indications and also endometrial cancer indications. Operation time, postoperative complicaton rate, blood transfusion need, and hospitalization time are compared according to benign and malign indications and also body mass index of the patients. Material and methods: Patients who were operated between September 2012 and December 2017 are included in this study. Patients' age, body mass index, medical histories, operation indications, operation time, pathology reports, pre and postoperative hemoglobine values and postoperative complications are obtained from medical records.Body mass index is classified as underweight for <19 ; normal for 19-25 ; overweight for 25-30 and obese for >= 30. Results: Operation and hospitalization times were significantly higher for high BMI and malign gynecologic indication groups than lower BMI and benign gynecologic indication groups (p:0.0001). Complication rates and transfusion needs were similar in between malign and benign gynecologic disease groups (p :0.443; P:0.670 respectively) and also in between high and lower BMI groups (P:0.813 ; P:0.468 respectively). Conclusion: Laparoscopic approach for hysterectomy operations in high BMI patients and endometrial cancer patients seem to be safe in terms of postoperative complication and bleeding that necessitate transfusion.

    Aim: Single pregnancy patients with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) were divided into two groups according to the conception method, as spontaneous and in vitro fertilization (IVF). We aim to compare the maternal, laboratory and perinatal characteristics of both groups. Materials and method: The records of 10,929 patients who gave birth in the center between October 2011 and July 2019 were analyzed retrospectively from the data processing system records. Maternal, laboratory and perinatal characteristics of 109 single pregnancies (spontaneous n: 91; IVF n: 18) diagnosed with ICP were compared. Findings: The maternal demographic data of both groups were similar (p: .05). In both groups, gestational week, gestational age at birth, birth weight, neonatal intensive care admission rate, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, umbilical cord pH, the 5-minute APGAR score, and the presence of pregnancy complications were similar (p > .05). Result: Although ICP is reported with a higher incidence in IVF pregnancies, ICP findings and prognosis are similar to those of spontaneous pregnancies.

    (2020) Durdag, Gulsen Dogan; Alemdaroglu, Songul; Durdag, Emre; Simsek, Seda Yuksel; Turunc, Tuba; Yetkinel, Selcuk; Baran, Safak Yilmaz; Celik, Husnu; 0000-0001-6939-5491; 0000-0002-2165-9168; 0000-0002-5064-5267; 0000-0003-4335-6659; 32500164; AAK-1734-2021; AAL-1530-2021; AAI-9594-2021; AAK-7016-2021; AAI-8400-2021; ABF-6439-2020
    Introduction and hypothesis Sacrocolpopexy is considered to be the gold-standard procedure for apical compartment prolapse. However, complications such as sacral hemorrhage, small bowel obstruction, port site herniation, mesh erosion, mesh exposure, and occasionally discitis may occur. The aim of this study is to show laparoscopic treatment of L5-S1 discitis 3 months following laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy. Methods Two surgical interventions of a case with narrated video footage is presented. Results Laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy following hysterectomy in the first part and re-laparoscopy because of a diagnosis of discitis refractory to medical treatment, and removal of mesh along with anterior L5-S1 discectomy for curative debridement in the second part is demonstrated. Conclusion Frequency of postoperative discitis has been increased by the widespread use of a laparoscopic approach. In order to reduce the complication rate, surgical technique allowing the needle to penetrate only the depth of the anterior longitudinal ligament and usage of monofilament suture for mesh attachment is recommended. In treatment, removal of the sacral mesh, and even extensive tissue debridement, may be necessary.

    Background and Aim The incidence of fetomaternal complications during pregnancy is high for women with sickle cell disease (SCD), which is the most common hematologic genetic disorder worldwide. Prophylactic red blood cell exchange (pRBCX) has been shown to be efficient, safe, and feasible for preventing complications. The aim of this study was to observe maternal, perinatal, and neonatal outcomes of pregnancies in which pRBCX was. Method This was a single-center, retrospective, cross-sectional study, which recruited 46 consecutive adult pregnant women with SCD between January 2012 and June 2019. Obstetric features, SCD-related complications, and fetomaternal outcomes were compared between the 27 patients who received prophylactic exchange and the 19 who did not (therapeutic exchange was performed in 7 and was not performed in 12 cases). Results Painful crises, preeclampsia, and preterm birth rates were significantly higher in the group that did not receive prophylactic exchange (control group;P= .001,P= .024, andP= .027, respectively). There was one maternal mortality in the control group (P= .41). Incidence of adverse fetal or maternal complications was significantly higher in the control group (P= .044 andP= .007, respectively). Conclusions Our center's experience over a 7.5-year period, as described above, demonstrates that pRBCX in SCD affects the course of pregnancy positively by ameliorating negative fetomaternal outcomes.
