    (2014) Gursu, Hazim Alper; Varan, Birgul; Ozkan, Murat; Tokel, Kursat; Erdogan, Ilkay; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0707-2678; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6719-8563; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6759-1795; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6887-3033; AHI-4502-2022; ABB-1767-2021; AAF-3253-2021; ABB-2220-2021
    Background: This study aims to evaluate mid-term follow-up results for patients with transposition of great arteries to whom Senning procedure was performed. Methods: Files of 95 child patients (63 boys, 22 girls; mean age 15.2 +/- 23.9 months; range 1 month to 12.5 years), who were diagnosed with transposition of great arteries and underwent atrial switch operation in our institute, were retrospectively evaluated. In the follow-ups; physical examination, electrocardiography, and echocardiography were performed. In addition, ambulatory electrocardiography monitorization was conducted on 25 patients. Results: Out of 95 patients who were performed atrial switch operation, 10 died in the postoperative period. The mean follow-up period was 33.4 +/- 43.7 months (1-16 years; mean 18 months). During the follow-ups, arrhythmia was detected in 25.8% of the patients, stenosis of pulmonary venous baffle was detected in 21.2%, systolic dysfunction of the right ventricle was detected in 19%, severe tricuspid valve insufficiency was detected in 18.9%, and baffle leak was detected in 15.3%. Of the patients, 11.7% were operated a second time, and 8.2% were reoperated due to stenosis of pulmonary venous baffle. Conclusion: Short and mid-term results of Senning procedure are not satisfactory. Patients should be monitored for possible right ventricle dysfunction, arrhythmia, systemic valve insufficiency, and stenosis of the tunnel.

    A Paratyhroid Adenoma Case in Intensive Care Unit: Prognosis and Treatment Approach
    (2015) Altun, Dilek; Demir, Guray; Tulubas, Evrim; Cukurova, Zafer; Turhan, Ahmet; AAR-7467-2020
    Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. More than 80% of the patients are asymptomatic and are usually diagnosed with incidentally detected high serum calcium levels. Concominant elevated levels of serum calcium (Ca++) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) is important in definitive diagnosis. Parathyroidectomy is the definitive treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism. Here, we report a patient with high serum calcium levels related to parathyroid adenoma and treated in intensive care unit (ICU). 54 years old female patient who is under treatment of osteoporosis had the symptoms of muscle weakness, fatigue, dizziness, vomiting, dehydration, polyuria and depression. High serum Ca+ and PTH levels were returned to normal after surgical excision.
