    (2014) Pekoz, Burcak Cakir; Alkan, Ozlem; Giray, Semih; Demir, Senay; Altinkaya, Naime; 0000-0001-7526-3460; 0000-0003-1348-8167; 0000-0002-4209-9075; 0000-0002-0722-3181; AAM-4169-2021; AAM-5169-2021; AAK-9310-2021; AAH-1091-2020
    Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare dementing disease and is thought to caused by a prion. It is characterized by rapidly progressive dementia, ataxia, myoclonus, akineticmutism and eventual death. Brain biopsy or autopsy is required for a definitive diagnosis of CJD. Diffusion-weighted imaging became an important tool for early diagnosis of CJD because of the high sensitivity. We present 59-year-old female patient diagnosed as sporadic CJD with typical MR imagings.

    Wernicke Encephalopathy after Gastrointestinal Surgery
    (2015) Saygi, Semra; Savas, Tulin; Alkan, Ozlem; Erol, Ilknur
    We herein describe a child operated for acute abdomen who developed Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE) secondary to prolonged total parenteral nutrition (TPN) that lacked vitamin B1 supplementation. The author concluded that surgeons, child neurologists, pediatricians and radiologists need to be aware of the predisposing factors and symptoms of WE. Clinicians need to keep in mind that ophthalmoplegia, ataxia or altered mental status could be findings of WE.

    (2016) Torer, Birgin; Cetinkaya, Bilin; Arslan, Alevi; Alkan, Ozlem; Erol, Ilknur; Gulcan, Hande; 0000-0002-3530-0463; 0000-0003-0866-7339; 0000-0003-4444-0027; 0000-0001-7526-3460; AAK-4825-2021; AAF-1346-2021; V-1112-2019; AAM-4169-2021
    Cardiac rhabdomyomas are the most comman cardiac tumors in children. They are hamartomatous benign tumors composed of myocytes. They often presents as multiple lesions involving the ventricular cavities. Rhabdomyomas are usually detected in utero by fetal echocardiography. Although patients with cardiac rhabdomyomas are generally asymptomatic these tumors may cause heart failure, severe arrhyhmias and sudden death. Cardiac rhabdomyomas are often associated with tuberosclerosis and they may be the earliest manifestation of tuberosclerosis. Here, we report a newborn infant with antenatally detected cardiac rhabdomyomas associated with tuberosclerosis and we want to emphasize that other diagnostic features of tuberosclerosis should be evaluated in patients with cardiac rhabdomyomas.

    Complications of Formaldehyde Injection for a Cystic Mass of the Neck
    (2018) Caylakli, Fatma; Yilmaz, Ismail; Alkan, Ozlem; 30197813
    Formaldehyde is a colorless reactive chemical with suffocating and pungent odor. It is irritant to mucous membranes and can enter the body by either oral ingestion or inhalation. Formaldehyde is toxic to living tissue. In this report, we present the case of a 22-year-old woman who was treated with formaldehyde injection for a cystic mass of the neck with developing complications.
