Item The Course of Renal Function After Radical Cystectomy with Ileal Conduit Diversion for Bladder Cancer(2019) Oze, Cevahir; Goren, Mehmet Resit; Egilmez, Tulga; Kilinc, Ferhat; Guvel, Sezgin; 0000-0002-7850-6912; 0000-0002-2001-1386; 0000-0001-6037-7991; AAM-2222-2020; Y-6143-2019Objective: We evaluated the course of the renal function and potential risk factors for renal deterioration in patients who had undergone radical cystectomy with ileal conduit diversion. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study evaluated 121 patients, including 114 male and 7 female who underwent radical cystectomy with ileal conduit diversion. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated and postoperative changes in renal function were reviewed. The clinical variables influencing renal function were evaluated. Results: The median follow-up period was 35.6 months (range, 12.2 to 139.6 months). The mean eGFR was 78.37 +/- 27.58 mL/min/1.73 m(2) before surgery and 90.14 +/- 29.68 mL/min/1.73 m(2) at 5 years postoperatively. The comparison of preoperative eGFR and the last follow-up eGFR showed the no statistically significant difference (p=0.195). Statistical analysis showed that development of postoperative urinary tract obstruction and postoperative urinary tract infection were significant adverse factors (p=0.008, p=0.026, respectively). Conclusion: Thirty two patients (53.3%) developed renal deterioration during the follow-up period. Development of urinary tract obstruction and urinary tract infection in the postoperative period were found to be significant adverse factors affecting renal function.Item Spleen Salvaging Treatment Approaches in Non-parasitic Splenic Cysts in Childhood(2016) Gezer, Hasan Ozkan; Oguzkurt, Pelin; Temiz, Abdulkerim; Ince, Emine; Ezer, Semire Serin; Kocer, Nazim Emrah; Demir, Senay; Hicsonmez, Akgün; 27574347The aim of this study was to evaluate our experience with primary non-parasitic splenic cysts (NPSC) which are relatively rare in children and consist almost exclusively of single case reports or small case series in the literature. The medical records of all patients who presented to our clinic with NPSC between 2005 and 2015 were evaluated retrospectively. There were 22 children whose ages ranged from 2 months to 14 years (mean 9.2 +/- 4.7 years). The size of the cysts was in the range of 5 to 200 mm (mean 55.4 +/- 48.2 mm). Ten patients underwent surgery for splenic cysts. Partial splenectomy (n = 2), total cyst excision (either open n = 4 or laparoscopically n = 1), and total splenectomy (n = 3) were performed. The non-operated patients were asymptomatic and followed with ultrasound (US). The follow-up period in non-operated patients ranged from 6 months to 5 years (mean 2.27 +/- 1.29 years). Complete regression was observed in four (33 %) non-operated patients. The regressed cyst measurements were 10, 16, 30, and 40 mm, respectively. Approximately half of the NPSC is diagnosed incidentally. Small (< 5 cm) asymptomatic cysts should be under regular follow-up with US/physical examination for regression. If surgery is required, we prefer open cyst excision as it gives excellent results and preserves splenic immune function.Item Early and Late Complications of Urinary Diversions after Radical Cystectomy(2016) Kosan, Murat; Gonulalan, UmutOne of the strongest predictive factors for the early and late postoperative complications and morbidity of radical cystectomy is the type of urinary diversion following cystectomy. In this paper, we reviewed English-language literature on urinary diversions after cystectomy and their early and late complications. All types of urinary diversions have potential risks of diversion-related metabolic complications, infection, intestinal obstruction and renal deficiency. Although there is no agreement on the ideal urinary diversion, orthotopic neobladder without an external stoma is the most popular type of diversion in appropriate patients due to the protection of body image. Ileal conduit is another frequently selected urinary diversion for elderly patients with comorbidity. Both orthotopic neobladder and ileal conduits are well tolerated options with low morbidity. Nevertheless, postoperative early and late complications, such as urinary tract infections, pyelonephritis, urinary leakage, stomal stenosis, urolithiasis and morphological changes in the upper urinary tract should be kept in mind.
