    Stereotaxic Biopsy Experience
    (2020) Dere, Umit Akin; Sahinturk, Fikret; Sonmez, Erkin; Gulsen, Salih; Yilmaz, Cem; Altinors, Mehmet Nur
    Aim: To review the outcomes and complications of stereotactic biopsy procedures performed at Neurosurgery Department of Baskent University and make an overall evaluation of the stereotactic biopsy system. Materials and Methods: Medical files of 151 patients who underwent stereotaxic biopsy procedure between 1996 and 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.The , age and gender of the patients, intracranial localization of the lesion and histopathologic diagnosis were evaluated. Result: The series included 84(55.6%) males and 67 (44.4%) females. The average age was 47.7 and the age spectrum was between 26-84 years of age. In 102 cases (67.55%) lesions had lobar localization and in 42 lesions (27.82%) the pathology was deep seated lesion. In 7(4.6 %) there were multiple lesions. A histopathologic diagnosis was obtained in 125 (82.79 %) cases. In 16 (%10.59 %) it was reported as brain tissue and in 10 cases (6.62 %) the histopathologic diagnosis was gliosis. A second stereotactic bipsy procedure was performed in 8 cases while in one patient a third biopsy became necessary. Thirteen patients underwent craniotomy and tumor excision as further therapy. Conclusion: Stereotactic biopsy sampling of intracranial space occupying lesions is a safe, simple and highly diagnostic method. In some cases it may contribute to further therapy. The problems encountered are inconclusive diagnosis, inadequate representation of the specimen due to its limited nature and some technical difficulties.

    The Necessity of Sector Carrying Capacity in Multinational Companies' FDI Location Choice
    (2019) Baskici, Cigdem; Ercil, Yavuz; AAI-6607-2020
    The aim of this study is to define the carrying capacity as a new criterion in multinational companies' foreign direct investment (FDI) location choice. The validity of such a definition requires the existence of a causal relationship between FDI and the number of companies at the investment location. As carrying capacity is a function of the sector population, FDI refers to the decisions of foreign investors regarding location choice. With this in mind, the company numbers and FDI data used belonging to 34 sub-sectors of Agriculture, Industry and Services sectors in Turkey between the years of 2006-2016 were analyzed. The Granger causality test was applied to investigate the causal relationship between the company numbers and FDI. As a result of the findings, a causality relationship between the number of companies and FDI was determined in 29 of the 34 sub-sectors. A causality relationship could not be found in 2 sub-sectors. Analysis was not possible in the remaining 3 sub-sectors because of a lack of data. The results show that carrying capacity can be used as decision criterion in multinational companies' FDI location choice. In addition to this main result of the study, predictions for the investment decision are presented in the light of the analyses along with evaluations of the carrying capacity of the Agriculture, Industrial and Services sectors.
