Publication Metadata only Differences in PET/CT standardized uptake values involvement and survival compared to histologic subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2021) BOZKURTLAR, EMİNE; Ercelep, Ozlem; Alan, Ozkan; Telli, Tugba A.; Tuylu, Tugba B.; Arikan, Rukiye; Demircan, Nazim Can; Simsek, Eda T.; Babacan, Nalan A.; Kaya, Serap; Dane, Faysal; Bozkurtlar, Emine; Ones, Tunc; Lacin, Tunc; Yumuk, Perran FuldenPurpose: Lung adenocarcinoma is histologically diverse but has distinct histologic growth patterns. There is no consensus on the clinical benefit of this histologic model. We aimed to evaluate the differences in the distribution of the preoperative primary tumor positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) standardized uptake values (SUVs) and survival in the lung adenocarcinoma subtypes. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the data of 107 patients with resected lung adenocarcinoma who had preoperative PET/CT between 2005 and 2017 in a single center. Patients had lepidic, acinar, papillary, micropapillary, and solid histologic subtypes. We compared fluorodeoxyglucose SUVs and survival data of histologic subtypes. Results: The median age of the patients was 62 years (40-75), 76.4% were male, the median SUVmax was 9.4 (1-36.7), and the median follow-up time was 29 months (3-135 months). The median overall survival (OS) was 71 months and the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 33 months. SUVmax was significantly different in histologic subtypes: values for papillary, micropapillary, solid, acinar, and lepidic subtypes were 9.7, 8, 12, 9.1, and 3.9, respectively (p= 0.000). Solid predominant adenocarcinoma had significantly higher SUVmax than the other subtypes (p= 0.001). Lepidic predominant adenocarcinoma had significantly lower SUVmax than the other subtypes (p= 0.000). There was no significant difference in OS between histologic subtypes (p= 0.66), but PFS was significantly different between the groups (p= 0.017), and the solid subtype had a shorter PFS than the other histologic subtypes. Conclusion: Lung adenocarcinoma consists of a diverse group of diseases. Different SUVmax values are seen in different histologic subtypes of nonmetastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Solid predominant types have high SUVmax values while lepidic predominant types have lower SUVmax values. The solid subtype had a shorter PFS than the other histologic subtypes.Publication Metadata only Histopathological evaluation of post-mortem pulmonary specimens excised from ICU patients with COVID-19: Do we know what we do not know(2023-05-06) ERMERAK, NEZİH ONUR; BOZKURTLAR, EMİNE; KOCAKAYA, DERYA; GÜL, FETHİ; KARAKURT, SAİT; ERMERAK N.

The aim of this study is to assess the safety and performance outcomes of EBUS-TBNA in elderly. Methods It was a retrospective observational study; patients who received EBUS-TBNA between September 2016 and January 2018 were evaluated. We analyzed patient's characteristics, doses of midazolam, and lidocaine used, regions of lymph node biopsies, and complications. Also, functionality and general physical status of patients over 65 years of age were evaluated. Results During study period 132 cases of EBUS-TBNA were evaluated. 39 (29.5%) cases were aged 70 years, and over. There were more comorbidities in older group. Performance status of older group was worse. Furthermore, when evaluated according to American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), the older group was found to be composed of the riskier patients. When patients aged between 65 and 69, and over 70 compared, older patient's Barthel, EQ 5-D, SGA, and G8 scores were found to be worse. Despite that, there was no difference in the frequency, and types of complications between both groups. Diagnostic performance was not different between age groups. Conclusions Independent from comorbidities, general health status, and functionality EBUS-TBNA procedure in 70-year-old and over patients is a safe minimally invasive procedure.Publication Metadata only Pulmoner nodül rezeksiyonu yapılan olgularda klinik radyolojik bulguların malign histopatolojik tanılar ile korelasyonu(2023-05-09) OLGUN YILDIZELİ, ŞEHNAZ; KOCAKAYA, DERYA; ERMERAK, NEZİH ONUR; BOZKURTLAR, EMİNE; ERYÜKSEL, SEMİHA EMEL; ÇİMŞİT, NURİ ÇAGATAY; YILDIZELİ, BEDRETTİN; KARAKURT, SAİT; OLGUN YILDIZELİ Ş., GİVİVİ S., KOCAKAYA D., ERMERAK N.

Since endotracheal lesion gives no symptom until tracheal lumen nearly occluded, the diagnosis of endotracheal metastasis could be challenging. F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography may be crucial to detect this unusal distant metastasis of colon cancer. Herein, we report FDG avid endotracheal lesion that was confirmed as metastasis from colon cancer in 56-year-old female patient.Publication Metadata only Pulmoner arter sarkomanın cerrahi sonuçları: Histoloji sağkalımı etkiler mi(2023-08-01) BOZKURTLAR, EMİNE; OLGUN YILDIZELİ, ŞEHNAZ; MUTLU, BÜLENT; KOCAKAYA, DERYA; BEKİROĞLU, GÜLNAZ NURAL; YILDIZELİ, BEDRETTİN; Başar V., Olgun Yıldızeli Ş., Bozkurtlar E., Ercelep ., Mutlu B., Kocakaya D., Bekiroğlu G.
