Öğe 8-year old patient with giant hydatid cyst consulted with chest wall asymmetry(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2015) Uygun, Saime Sundus; Aribas, Olgun Kadir; Pekcan, SevgiCystic echinococcosis, a zoonotic disease, is common in Turkey and is caused by the Echinococcus granulosus tapeworm. We describe the case of an 8-year-old girl who was admitted to hospital with chest wall asymmetry after a fall from height, without any other symptoms. Cystic lesion was identified on radiology, and serology supported the diagnosis of hydatid cyst. The patient underwent thorax surgery. Postoperatively, she was treated with benzimidazoles for 2 months. Rarely, hydatid cysts can reach a size sufficiently large to cause chest deformity.Öğe The effect of costal cartilage resection on the chest watt development: a morphornetric evaluation(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2007) Calik, Mustafa; Aribas, Olgun Kadir; Kanat, FikretObjective: In repair of thoracic wall deformities, there is a debate in the literature regarding the optimal age and the type and number of costal cartilage resections. We evaluated the effect of costal. cartilage resections on the chest wall development in young rabbits. Methods: Fifty apparently healthy, 6 weeks of age, mate New Zealand white rabbits were evaluated in five groups, each including 10 subjects. Group I served as control for the observation of normal thoracic development. Rabbits in group 2 underwent partial and rabbits in group 3 underwent total resections of the right third and fourth costal cartilages; those in group 4 underwent partial and rabbits in group 5 underwent total resections of the right third to sixth costal, cartilages. Anteroposterior, horizontal and vertical diameters of the chest were measured before operation and repeated at 24 weeks of age. Results: Upper and lower anteroposterior diameters of the thoracic wall and horizontal diameters of the left hemithorax differed significantly among groups (p = 0.011, p = 0.004, and p = 0.002, respectively). Upper anteroposterior diameter was 49 mm in group 1 and 44 mm in group 3 (p = 0.009). Lower anteroposterior diameter in group 5 (66 mm) was significantly less than that in group 1 (70 mm) (p = 0.039) and there was also a statistically significant difference between group 4 (71 mm) and group 5 (66 mm) (p = 0.002). Horizontal diameters of the left hemithorax in group 3 (32 mm; p = 0.005) and 5 (32 mm; p = 0.008) were significantly different when compared to group 1 (26 mm). Growth in right hemithorax was statistically less than that in left side in all operated groups except in group 2. Conclusions: Thoracic resections in young rabbits have demonstrated that the costal cartilage resection is not an innocent procedure as it severely affects the chest watt development especially in anteroposterior direction and the thoracic growth is markedly retarded when growth centers of the ribs are not preserved and/or four or more ribs are resected.

A delay in diagnosis is common because the symptoms mimic those of bronchial asthma. We report the case of a 42-year-old woman who was treated for asthma for 2 years before a diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma of the trachea was made. To our knowledge, only 33 patients with pleomorphic adenoma of the trachea have been reported. We treated our patient by performing circumferential segmental tracheal resection and end-to-end anastomosis. A dynamic Y-stent was implanted for tracheal stenosis soon after the operation and it was removed 2 years later. The patient is now asymptomatic and no recurrence has been detected in the 5 years since diagnosis.Öğe Rib fractures: Could we accelerate the healing?(EUROPEAN RESPIRATORY SOC JOURNALS LTD, 2015) Calik, Mustafa; Calik, Saniye Goknil; Aribas, Olgun Kadir; Baltaci, Abdulkerim Kasim[Abstract not Available]Öğe An uncommon extrapulmonary sequestration located in the upper posterior mediastinum associated with the azygos lobe in a child(MOSBY-ELSEVIER, 2007) Koksal, Yavuz; Unal, Ekrem; Aribas, Olgun Kadir; Oran, Bulent[Abstract not Available]
