    Duplication of the mandible in Klippel-Feil syndrome
    (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2013) DURMUŞ KOCAASLAN, FATMA NİHAL; Kocaaslan, Nihal Durmus; Satir, Tevfik; Celebiler, Ozhan; Numanoglu, Ayhan
    The duplication of the mandible is an extremely rare case, which was first described by McLaughlin in 1948 as a case report of duplication of the mouth, the tongue and the mandible. Betty in 1956 and Davies in 1973 reported similar cases. The duplication of the mandible may be associated with the Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS). A low hairline, short neck with cervical vertebral fusion and painless limitation of the head movement are the characteristic findings of this syndrome. The incidence of the syndrome varies from 1/30,000 to 1/40,000. Although autosomal recessive inheritance was suggested, no familial inheritance was found in some cases. A very rare case of mandibular duplication in association with KFS, whose duplicated mass was removed following distraction, has been reported.

    Evaluation of residual tumors and recurrence rates of malignant melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer of head and neck region
    (MARMARA UNIV, FAC MEDICINE, 2019-10-31) SAÇAK, BÜLENT; Durmus Kocaaslan, Fatma Nihal; Alakus, Ali Conor; Sacak, Bulent; Celebiler, Ozhan
    Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate residual tumors and recurrence rates of malignant melanoma (MM) and a nonmelanoma skin cancer of (NMSC) head and neck region. Patients and Methods: Medical data of a total of 398 lesions of 323 patients who underwent surgical excision for a basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and malignant melanoma (MM) were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were classified according to age, sex, location of the tumor, histopathological diagnosis, lesion diameter, excision diameter, surgical margin status, and residual lesions and recurrence rates. Results: There were 244 lesions (61.3%) in 189 males and 154 lesions (38.7%) in 134 females. The most common type of skin cancer was BCC in 268 lesions (67%), followed by SCC in 122 (31%), and MM in eight (2%), respectively. Recurrence was seen in 3% of the NMSC cases and in 25% of the MM cases. There was a statistically significant correlation between the histopathological diagnosis and recurrence rates. Compared to NMSC, MM cases had a higher risk for recurrence (p=0.029). Conclusion: Our study results suggest that recurrence is associated with the localization and type of the tumor, but not with the age or sex of the patient.

    Management of palatal fistulas and a simple surgical algorithm proposal
    (MARMARA UNIV, FAC MEDICINE, 2020-01-31) DURMUŞ KOCAASLAN, FATMA NİHAL; Kocaaslan, Fatma Nihal Durmus; Memic, Zuhra; Yalcin, Dogus; Celebiler, Ozhan
    Objectives: Despite improved techniques in repair of cleft palate, failure of healing of palatal structures resulting in a palatal fistula is one of the major challenges in the practice of reconstructive surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate treatment success and failure in patients with palatal fistulas following cleft palate repair. Patients and Methods: Totally 44 patients with a history of cleft palate who underwent surgery for palatal fistula were included in this study undertaken between January 1999 and August 2014. Fistulas were classified as anterior and posterior according to the repair technique and were repaired using one of the following techniques: buccal mucosal flap, tongue flap or mucoperiosteal flap. Results: Success rate for anterior fistulas was 71.42% with tongue flap and 76.92% with mucoperiosteal flap. Success rate for posterior fistulas was 84.62% with mucoperiosteal flap and 75% with buccal mucosal flap. Difference in success rates between the anterior and posterior fistulas was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Our study results suggest the use of mucoperiosteal flaps for both anterior and posterior fistulas smaller than 5mm as the first choice, guided by the principle of replacing absent tissue with similar tissue.

    Use of abdominal negative pressure wound therapy in different indications: a case series
    (MA HEALTHCARE LTD, 2019) EROL, BÜLENT; Kocaaslan, Fatma Nihal Durmus; Ozkan, Melekber Cavus; Akdeniz, Zeynep; Sacak, Bulent; Erol, Bulent; Yuksel, Mustafa; Celebiler, Ozhan
    Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is a widely used wound management system. Several articles have been published on the advantages and complications of this system. Abdominal dressing negative pressure system (abdominal NPWT) is a newer technology, developed and used in open abdomen cases. The adherence of the sponge to the intra-abdominal organs is prevented by a polyurethane foam. This study presents a number of case series where an abdominal NPWT (ABThera, KCl, US) has been used to treat other vital organs, helping to prevent complications such as organ rupture and fatal bleeding.

    Distraction chondroneogenesis on rabbit's ear cartilage [Tavşan kulak ki{dotless}ki{dotless}rdag̀i{dotless}nda distraksiyon kondroneogenezisi]
    (2013) DURMUŞ KOCAASLAN, FATMA NİHAL; Durmuş Kocaaslan F.N., Çelebiler O., Numanog̀lu A., Türköz H.K.
    Objective: Application of distraction is an alternative to bone graft or fap operations for repairing bone defects. Bone can be extended in width and length without using a new donor area. Operation time is shortened and failures are reduced without any concern about graft or fap loss. However, there are no distraction methods known for generating new cartilage as an alternative to graft or fap applications in repairs of cartilage defects This experimental study was planned to determine whether or not chondroneogenesis can be obtained via application of distraction. Methods: Fourteen New Zealand rabbits were used in this study. Distractions at a rate of 0.50 mm/day, 0.25 mm/day and 0.25 mm on alternate days were applied on 3 rabbits consecutively and the ideal distraction rate was determined as 0.25 mm once every two days. On alternate days 0.25 mm of distraction was applied for two months aiming to generate 7.5 mm of new cartilage. Results: In the rabbits in which 0.25 mm of distraction on alternate days had been applied, regular new cartilage formation was observed. Conclusions: According to these findings, the slow metabolic rate of avascular cartilage tissue affects distraction rates and rhythms. However, by applying distraction and taking advantage of the regenerative capacity of the perichondrium, it is possible to generate new and regular chondrocytes and extend the cartilage.

    Margin-Controlled, Staged Surgical Excision in the Treatment of High-Risk Basal Cell Carcinomas of the Head and Neck Region
    (SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2019) SALMAN, ANDAÇ; Ucar, Ayse Nigar Durmus; Kocaaslan, Fatma Nihal Durmus; Salman, Andac; Demirkesen, Cuyan; Bayram, Filiz Erdem; Bayramicli, Mehmet
    Background: The most common skin cancer is basal cell carcinoma (BCC), and the gold-standard treatment for high-risk tumours is Mohs surgery. However, alternative methods are needed for high-risk tumours in countries where the performance rate of Mohs surgery is low. Objectives: The objective of this article is to investigate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of margin-controlled, staged surgical excision (MCSSE) in high-risk tumours as a possible treatment alternative. Methods: A retrospective cohort study, including patients diagnosed with high-risk BCC in the head and neck region and treated with MCSSE between 2003 and 2010, was conducted. Results: During the study period 50 tumours in 47 patients were treated, with low adverse event rates and high patient satisfaction rates. Of the 50 tumours, 1 recurred at the 12-month follow-up. Conclusions: Despite the small sample size and relatively short follow-up period, the present study shows that MCSSE might be a feasible alternative for the treatment of high-risk BCCs in institutions where Mohs surgery is not performed. Future studies on long-term recurrence rates are needed.
