Öğe Ancient schwannoma of the parotid gland: A case report and review of the literature(Churchill Livingstone, 2006) Bayindir, T; Kalcioglu, MT; Kizilay, A; Karadag, N; Akarcay, MSchwannomas are encapsulated benign tumours arising from nerve sheath cells, of which ancient schwannoma is one of five variants. Since the first description, only a few ancient schwannomas have been reported in different locations in the head and neck region. In the parotid gland, this tumour is very rare. In this report, a 41-year-old female patient with an ancient schwannoma of the parotid gland is presented and the data of this patient compared with other (comparable) cases described in the literature.

This study investigated the role of the antioxidant defense system in regeneration among Wistar-albino male rats subjected to 70% partial hepatectomy after a pretreatment period of 2 weeks with eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) rich fish oil (FO), first pressed virgin olive oil (00), or vitamin E. The control group of 10 rats underwent PH only. On postoperative day 3, all rats were humanely killed. Liver sections of animals treated with FO or vitamin E showed significant increases in regeneration within both liver parenchyma and cut surface compared with the control group (P < .05). Liver sections of 00 displayed an insignificant increase in liver regeneration (P > .05), with less increase in parenchyma than of the cut surface. The enhancement of the liver parenchymal regeneration in the FO group was significantly greater than that of the vitamin E group. Concerning liver function tests (LIFT), there was no significant difference among the groups. When the treatment groups were compared to the control group glutathione (GSH) levels were increased and content of malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were decreased. Based on these results, we concluded that after 70% PH in rats, the liver parenchyma and cut surface regeneration were greatest with FO and least with 00 treatment. Both FO and vitamin E served to improve the antioxidant defense system more than 00 treatment.Öğe The effects of methylene blue on lung injury in septic rats(Karger, 2006) Demirbilek, S; Sizanli, E; Karadag, N; Karaman, A; Bayraktar, N; Turkmen, E; Ersoy, MOPurpose: We aimed to investigate the effects of methylene blue (MB) on NO production, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, antioxidant status and lipid peroxidation in lung injury during different stages of sepsis in rats. Material and Methods: Rats were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 20): group C, sham operated; group CMB, sham operated and receiving MB (25 mg/kg, i.p.); group S, sepsis; group SMB, sepsis and receiving MB (25 mg/ kg, i.p.). Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The MB dose was administered after CLP. Each group was subdivided into two subgroups (n = 10) which were sacrificed at 9 or 18 h after the surgical procedure. The levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) and MPO activity, total nitrite/nitrate and malondialdehyde (MDA) in the lung tissue were measured. Lung injury was graded from 1 (injury to 25% of the field) to 4 (diffuse injury) by the pathologist. Results: In group SMB, while SOD and CAT increased in both early and late sepsis periods, GSH-PX increased significantly only in the early sepsis period when compared with group S. Increase in lung MPO activity after CLP-induced sepsis was prevented by MB administration. MB significantly decreased to nitrite/nitrate and MDA levels both in early and late sepsis periods when compared with group S (p < 0.05). Group S showed a marked increase in neutrophil infiltration into the interstitial space and thickening of the alveolar septa, whereas the alveolar damage score was lower in the SMB group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: MB reduced the MPO activity and lipid peroxidation by both decreasing oxidative stress and NO overproduction in the lungs, which resulted in the attenuation of lung injury after CLP-induced sepsis in rats.

Cirrhotic liver and acute rejection after human liver transplantation.(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2006) Kirimlioglu, H; Kirimlioglu, V; Yilmaz, S; Karadag, N[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Maxillary brown tumor and uremic leontiasis ossea in a patient with chronic renal insufficiency(Dustri-Verlag Dr Karl Feistle, 2004) Taskapan, H; Taskapan, C; Baysal, T; Sahin, I; Ulu, R; Karadag, N; Kirimlioglu, VFindings of renal osteodystrophy in cranial bones are not uncommon and include osteomalacia, osteosclerosis, erosion of the cortical bone, brown tumors and resorption of the lamina dura. However, massive thickening of the cranial vault and facial bones, called uremic leontiasis ossea, have been reported very rare. In the present article, we describe the case of an uncooperative female patient with a brown tumor, involving the left maxillary sinus and massive thickening of the cranial vault and facial bones, secondary to severe secondary hyperparathyroidism during 8 years of regular hemodialysis treatment.Öğe Uterine metastasis from infiltrating ductal carcinoma of breast in a patient receiving tamoxifen(Churchill Livingstone, 2002) Meydanli, MM; Karadag, N; Ataoglu, O; Kafkasli, AThe established relationship between tamoxifen and the development of endometrial cancer causes differential diagnostic problems between metastatic and primary uterine neoplasms. A 45-year-old woman underwent modified radical mastectomy because of left-breast cancer. She presented with abnormal vaginal bleeding 6 years later, while still on tamoxifen therapy. The endometrial curettage revealed undifferentiated adenocarcinoma. She underwent total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salphingoopherectomy as well as pelvic and periaortic lymphadenectomy. Microscopic examination revealed neoplastic cells which formed sheets and duct-like structures in the endometrium. The pattern was not that of a primary endometrial tumour and an immunohistochemical staining was performed using human breast gross cystic disease fluid protein-15 (GCDFP-15) which was found out to be positive in the tumour cells. A diagnosis of metastatic ductal carcinoma of the breast in the uterus was rendered. Uterine metastasis should be kept in mind in patients with a history of breast cancer who are on tamoxifen therapy. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
