    Prognostic Value of Metastatic Lymph Node Ratio in Pancreatic Cancer
    (Springer India, 2018-10-26) Karaca, Can; Coker, Ahmet
    Lymph node involvement in pancreatic adenocancer is one of the strongest predictors of prognosis. However, the extent of lymph node dissection is still a matter of debate and number of dissected nodes varies widely among patients. In order to homogenize this diverse group of patients and more accurately predict their prognosis, we aimed to analyze the effect of metastatic lymph node ratio as an independent prognostic factor. We retrospectively analyzed medical recordings of 326 patients with pancreatic cancer who were treated in a tertiary medical oncology center over a 10-year period. Both in univariate and multivariate analyses, metastatic lymph node ratio proved to be a strong predictor of prognosis which was unaffected from heterogeneity of our patient population and can be used to facilitate predict prognosis of patients who underwent lymph node dissection to various extents and with future studies it can emerge as a successful tool for creating prognostic subgroups of the disease.

    Retrospective Evaluation of Candidemic Patients Among General Surgery Department in a Tertiary Care University Hospital
    (Turkish Surgical Assoc, 2019-09-23) Onal, Ugur; Metin, Dilek Yesim; Karaca, Can; Polat, Suleyha Hilmioglu; Ersin, Sinan; Tasbakan, Meltem Isikgoz
    Objective: Candida species are among the most important causes of hospital acquired blood borne infections, and with high rates of mortality and morbidity, these infections are still a major problem today. History of gastrointestinal surgery, administration of total parenteral nutrition and/or wide spectrum antibiotics and immune suppression following organ transplantations are considered serious risk factors for these infections. This study aimed to evaluate the patients from our general surgery department with diagnosed candidemia; by means of strain, treatment and prognosis. Material and Methods: Patients with positive blood cultures for Candida species who were treated in the wards and Ege University Faculty of Medicine general surgery department of surgical intensive care units of our between 2012 and 2017 were retrospectively analyzed by means of strain, treatment and prognosis. Results: A total of 50 patients were enrolled in the study. Mean age was 58.96 years and 54% of the patients were female. There were nine patients with organ transplantation (four liver and five kidney transplantations), six with intestinal perforation and three with anastomotic leakage. Isolated strains were Candida albicans (36%; 18/50), Candida tropicalis (14%; 7/50), Candida glabrata (12%; 6/50), Candida parapsilosis (8%; 4/50), Candida kefyr (6%; 3/50), Candida krusei (4%; 2/50), Candida pulcherrima (2%; 1/50), Cryptococcus neoformans (2%, 1/50), Geotrichum capitatum (2%, 1/50), Candida spp. (unidentified, 14%; 7/50) with decreasing frequency. The highest antifungal sensitivity rates (> 90%) were measured for amphotericin B, voriconazole and echinocandins among all isolates. One-month mortality rate was 43.4% (20/46). Documented eradication was achieved among 24 of the 33 patients who had control blood culture samples (72.7%), and mean eradication time was 7.6 days. Echocardiography was performed in 14% (7/50) and ophthalmic examination in 8% (4/50). Conclusion: Although C. albicans appears to be the dominant strain in patients with candidemia, frequencies of other strains are increasing. Early diagnosis and treatment of patients with candidemia is of vital importance due to high mortality and morbidity rates.

    Factors Affecting Bilirubin Levels Following Drainage Proceduresin Obstructive Jaundice
    (2019) Aydın, Cengiz; Çapar, Ahmet Ergin; Günay, Süleyman; Karaca, Avni Can; Ustun, Mehmet
    Introduction: Measuring serum bilirubin levels is easy and readily available invirtually every healthcare facility. It is practically used by physicians for thefollow up of the patients with obstructive jaundice.Despite its common use as amarker for follow up, the literature lacks clear data about its interpretation as aclinical marker.We don’t have clearly set prognostic rules and cutoff pointsespecially about the rate of bilirubin decrease following biliary drainageprocedures.We conducted a retrospective study to determine the likely factorsthat affect bilirubin levels following the interventional relief of obstructivejaundice.Material-Method: We retrospectively analyzed data from 73 patients withobstructive jaundice who underwent interventional drainage procedures over atime period of 4 years in a tertiary healthcare center.Results: Decrease in the bilirubin levels was most rapid in the first 48hour following the drainage. From the analyzed variables, only age andselected type of the drainage procedure significantly affected the rateof bilirubin decrease in our patient group. We failed to establish cutoffpoints that can accurately predict the patients with slower bilirubindecrease.Conclusion: Serum bilirubin level is an important and commonly usedmarker predicting the success of treatment and the prognosis of thepatients with obstructive jaudince. Type of drainage and the ageproven to significantly affect the rate of bilirubin decrease regardless ofunderlying pathology
