Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Management of Thyroid Gland Invasion in Laryngeal and Hypopharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma(Springer, 2015-11-07) Arslanoglu, Secil; Eren, Erdem; Ozkul, Yilmaz; Ciger, Ejder; Kopar, Aylin; Onal, Kazim; Etit, DemetThe objective of this study was to determine the incidence of thyroid gland invasion in laryngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma; and the association between clinicopathological parameters and thyroid gland invasion. Medical records of 75 patients with laryngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma who underwent total laryngectomy with thyroidectomy were reviewed, retrospectively. Preoperative computed tomography scans, clinical and operative findings, and histopathological data of the specimens were evaluated. There were 73 male and two female patients with an age range of 41-88 years (mean 60.4 years). Hemithyroidectomy was performed in 62 (82.7 %) and total thyroidectomy was performed in 13 patients (17.3 %). Four patients had histopathologically proven thyroid gland invasion (5.3 %). In three patients, thyroid gland involvement was by means of direct invasion. Thyroid gland invasion was significantly correlated with thyroid cartilage invasion. Therefore, prophylactic thyroidectomy should not be a part of the treatment policy for these tumors.Article Fungal Sinusitis Due To Mucormycosis in a Diabetic Immunosuppressed Patient With Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)(J infection Developing Countries, 2024) Ece, Gulfem; Ciger, Ejder; Acar, Celal; Cagirgan, Seckin; Cetin, OgulcanIntroduction: Mucormycosis is an acute onset, invasive, fungal infection, characterized by organ involvement, and caused by Mucor, Rhizopus, or Absidia. Our aim was to present a case of mucormycotic infection and emphasize its importance in a diabetic immunosuppressed patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Case presentation: A 68-year-old hypertensive and diabetic male patient with a diagnosis of AML developed respiratory failure and exhibited diffuse bilateral consolidation in high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT). The treatment plan involved chemotherapy with cytarabine (200 mg/m2/day for 7 days) and daunorubicin (60 mg/m2/day for 3 days) starting on 20 July 2022. Posaconazole prophylactic treatment was initiated on 23 July 2022, to prevent fungal infections. Five days later there was a black necrotic appearance on the left wing of the nose. The patient underwent excision of the left wing of the nose. Mucor was detected in the excision tissue both histopathologically and in culture. A culture under lactophenol cotton blue (LFCB) staining displaying hyphal structures of Mucor was obtained. The patient died of progressive pneumonia and sepsis. Conclusions: Mucormycosis is an infection with high mortality, and should be considered in the early stages of diagnosis when dealing with immunosuppression patients.Article Fungal Sinusitis Due To Mucormycosis in a Diabetic Immunosuppressed Patient With Acute Myeloid Leukemia (aml)(Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2024-10-31) Ece, G.; Ciger, E.; Acar, C.; Cagirgan, S.; Cetin, O.Introduction: Mucormycosis is an acute onset, invasive, fungal infection, characterized by organ involvement, and caused by Mucor, Rhizopus, or Absidia.

Copyright © 2024 Ece et al.Article Comparative Survival Function in Patients With Positive Surgical Margins Following Laryngectomy(Springer India, 2023-03-22) Özkul, Yılmaz; Ciğer, Ejder; Balci, Mustafa Koray; Kılavuz, Ahmet Erdem; Bayrak, Feda; Songu, Murat; İşlek, AkifAims: This study aims to make a comparative analysis of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall disease-specific survival (OS) in patients with laryngeal carcinoma. Materials and methods: The study was designed retrospectively. Sixteen patients with postoperative PSM and 30 with negative surgical margins (NSM) were included. Survival analysis and Long-Rank comparisons was performed for DFS and OS between groups. Results: PSM was a significant independent risk factor for loco-regional recurrence and disease-related mortality (p = 0.004, HR: 1.6, p = 0.002, HR: 3.2, respectively). DFS and OS were significantly longer in NSM group (p = 0.001 and 0.003, respectively). For PSM group, 2- and 5-year DFS rates were 57%; OS rates were 80% and 34% respectively. In NSM group, 2- and 5-year DFS rates were 96% and 83%; OS rates were found to be 96%. Conclusion: PSM had significant relation with poor prognosis.
