Item Microscopic study of human nasal cavity microanatomy using semi-thin resin embedding and methylene blue staining(2019) Firat, Aysegul; Onerci-Celebi, Ozlem; Tuncel, Alican; Ergun, Mine; Hayran, MurvetThe nasal cavity is a part of the respiratory tract which humidifies, filters, and warms the air we breathe, as well as being the organ of olfaction. It is easily accessible in terms of morphological and histopathological evaluation for clinical and research purposes. There have been many studies and textbooks showing the histological evaluation of the nasal cavity's three functional regions: the vestibule, respiratory, and olfactory. The present study aimed to examine the nasal mucosa in a detailed manner in 11 predetermined anatomic areas. Specimens were collected from six fresh-frozen cadavers using a standard punch biopsy procedure. Microscopic evaluation was done on the nasal mucosa, glands, blood vessels, muscles, connective tissue, and neural anatomy. Also, examined and described were the epithelial cell and glandular transitions in the mucosal lining. The microscopic investigation of these features in the nasal cavity provided important information for both clinical and research purposes.Item Non-Hematologic Malignancies Metastasing to the Bone Marrow: A Record-Based Descriptive Study From A Tertiary Center(2019) Aytan, Pelin; Kocer, Nazim Emrah; Yeral, Mahmut; Gereklioglu, Cigdem; Kasar, Mutlu; Buyukkurt, Nur Hilal; Asma, Suheyl; Ozdogu, Hakan; Boga, CanThe aim of this study is to assess the cases of nonhematologic maiignancies that had bone marrow (BM) metastasis with respect to hematologic abnormalities, radiologic findings and pathologic findings. All of the patients with BM investigation were retrospectively evaluated. The patients with BM metastasis by a non-hematologic malignancy were assessed. Data regarding patient characteristics including peripheral blood evaluation findings, imaging findings, BM evaluation results and survival were obtained from patient files and computer based electronic database. 30 cases were detected among 1831 BM aspirations and biopsies. The most common malignancies were breast (36.7%), prostate (13.3%), gastric(13.3%) and lung (13.3%) adenocarcinomas. 90.9% and 75% of the cases had positive radiologic findings with PET/CT and CT respectively. 43.3% of the patients died during the study period and the median time from BM assessment to death was 2 months. Anemia, thrombocytopenia and leukopenia were present in 90%, 73.3% and 20% respectively. Lactate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase were elevated in 90% and 80% respectively. In 76.2% a leukoerythroblastic blood picture was present. All the cases were diagnosed with biopsy and aspiration detected infiltration in 40% and in 4 metastatic patients (13.3%) the aspiration was false negative. In 46.7% the aspiration resulted with dry tap. Grade 3 fibrosis was present in 76.7%. BM assessment is a minimally invasive technique and provides very beneficial clinical data, however, because the survival is very short after BM assessment and the PET/CT has a considerable sensitivity it is not necessary to confirm BM metastasis in patients whose tumor stage is already known.Item Cancer detection rates of different prostate biopsy regimens in patients with renal failure(2014) Hoscan, Mustafa Burak; Ozorak, Alper; Oksay, Taylan; Perk, Hakki; Armagan, Abdullah; Soyupek, Sedat; Serel, Tekin Ahmet; Kosar, AlimWe aimed to evaluate the cancer detection rates of 6-, 10-, 12-core biopsy regimens and the optimal biopsy protocol for prostate cancer diagnosis in patients with renal failure. A total of 122 consecutive patients with renal failure underwent biopsy with age-specific prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels up to 20 ng/mL. The 12-core biopsy technique (sextant biopsy + lateral base, lateral mid-zone, lateral apex, bilaterally) performed to all patients. Pathology results were examined separately for each sextant, 10-core that exclude parasagittal mid-zones from 12-cores (10a), 10-core that exclude apex zones from 12-cores (10b) and 12-core biopsy regimens. Of 122 patients, 37 (30.3%) were positive for prostate cancer. The cancer detection rates for sextant, 10a, 10b and 12 cores were 17.2%, 29%, 23.7% and 30.7%, respectively. Biopsy techniques of 10a, 10b and 12 cores increased the cancer detection rates by 40%, 27.5% and 43.2% among the sextant technique, respectively. Biopsy techniques of 10a and 12 cores increased the cancer detection rates by 17.1% and 21.6% among 10b biopsy technique, respectively. There were no statistical differences between 12 core and 10a core about cancer detection rate. Adding lateral cores to sextant biopsy improves the cancer detection rates. In our study, 12-core biopsy technique increases the cancer detection rate by 5.4% among 10a core but that was not statistically different. On the other hand, 12-core biopsy technique includes all biopsy regimens. We therefore suggest 12-core biopsy or minimum 10-core strategy incorporating six peripheral biopsies with elevated age-specific PSA levels up to 20 ng/mL in patients with renal failure.Item Magnetic Resonance Guided Stereotactic Biopsy of Intracranial Lesions: Analysis of 310 Cases(2018) Kardes, Ozgur; Durdag, Emre; Civi, Soner; Suner, Halil Ibrahim; Tufan, KadirObjective: Stereotaxic biopsy is an important surgical procedure that provides definite diagnosis in brain lesions. It is possible to obtain diagnosis with minimal invasive manner in deeply located and critical localized lesions. There are large case series in the literature. We aimed to present our experience of magnetic resonance (MR) guided 310 stereotaxic biopsies in this study. Method:We retrospectively evaluated age and gender distribution, locations of the lesions, histopathologic results, and complications of 310 cases which MR guided stereotactic biopsied was performed in our clinic between 2012 and 2018. In addition, technical information was also provided. Results:Stereotactic frame application was performed with local anesthesia and surgical procedure was performed by under general anesthesia. Of 310 patients 169 were male (55%) and were 141 female (45%). Mean age was 57.28 (3-87). 184 of the lesions were hemispheric (59%), and the most common diagnosis was glioblastoma multiforme (34.19%). 8 patients were not diagnosed (2%). Complications developed in 13 cases (4%) and 2 of cases were died in the early phase due to the procedure (0.6%). Histopathological diagnostic success was 99% Conclusion:The results of our study show that the stereotactic biopsy procedure applied in the MRI guideline is reliable and feasible with low complication rate and high effectiveness in cases where definitive histopathologic results are required for treatment planning.
