    The effect of stump ligation techniques on operative time in laparoscopic appendectomy
    (20 haziran 2021) Kutluer, Nizamettin; Aksu, Ali; Kanat, Burhan Hakan; Aday, Ulaş; Böyük, Abdullah; Doğan, Serhat
    Introduction: We aimed to evaluate the effect of stump ligation techniques on operative time in laparoscopic appendectomy. Material and methods: The patients who underwent laparoscopic appen dectomy in our General Surgery Clinic between January 2016 and August 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. The effects of stump ligation tech niques used in the operations on operative times were evaluated. Results: Sixty consecutive patients were screened and 3 groups, 20 patients in each group, were formed based on stump ligation techniques. Extracor poreal knotting – loop ligation was used in Group 1; intracorporeal knotting was used in the Group 2; hem-o-lok clip was used in Group 3.There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of gender distribution and mean age. However, there was a significant difference be tween the hem-o-lok clip group (Group III) and the intracorporeal knot group (Group II) in terms of operative time. Group III had a shorter operative time. The Group III patients had the shortest operative time, while the Group II patients had the longest operative time (p < 0.05). Conclusions: We can speculate that hem-o-lok clip among the stump liga tion techniques reduces the cost, is a safe method and shortens the opera tive time. However, prospective randomized studies with a large sample size comparing different techniques are needed to determine the ideal treat ment procedure. At the same time, stapler use may be considered in cases where the base of the appendix is too inflamed or necrosed. It is known that the use of a stapler and endoloop is more expensive than all other tech niques. However, the most important issue for the surgeon is patient safety; therefore the most appropriate technique should be preferred.

    The effects of sponges soaked with chlorhexidine gluconate and metronidazole on safety of colonic anastomosis in an experimental model of peritonitis
    (2021) Kanat, Burhan Hakan
    BACKGROUND: The present study aims to evaluate the use of the chlorhexidine gluconate and metronidazole impregnated compresses concerning anastomosis safety in the left colonic anastomosis in the presence of peritonitis. METHODS: This study was conducted on 21 Wistar-Albino-rats divided into three equal groups. After median laparotomy, the whole layer of the left colon was cut 2 cm over the pelvic peritoneum. The faeces were spread around the injury for fecal contamination. Then, fasia and skin were closed with 3/0 silk. After one day period, relaparatomy was performed. The abdomen was cleared isotonic sodium chloride with impregnated material before starting colonic anastomosis in the first group and then double layer colonic anastomosis was performed. In the second Group-II, abdomen was cleared with the metronidazole impregnated compresses then double layer colonic anastomosis was performed. In the group-III, abdomen was cleared with the chlorhexidine gluconate impregnated compresses then double layer colonic anastomosis was performed. Tissue hydroksiproline levels and anastomosis bursting pressures were measured and histopathologic findings on the anastomosis line were evaluated on the postoperative tenth day by performing relaparatomy. RESULTS: The highest anastomosis bursting pressure was found in Group-III (p<0.05). The highest tissue hydroksiproline level was found in Group-III (p<0.005 Group I-III, Group II-III). When histopathologic findings were evaluated by comparing the three groups in this study, the healing of the intestine tissue score was statistically insignificant between group-II and III, for both group-II and III, healing score was statistically significant higher than Group-I (p<0.05 Group I–III and Group I-II). CONCLUSION: Cleaning the abdomen before the anastomosis using antibacterial soaked material increased resection safety in the presence of peritonitis and anastomosis safety in primary anastomosis.

    Giant Fibroadenomas in Young Women
    (Galenos Yayinevi, 2020-06-09) Kanat, Burhan Hakan; Kutluer, Nizamettin; Arslan Solmaz, Özgen; Bozdağ, Pınar
    Objectives: In this study, we consider a fibroadenoma with a size >5 cm as a giant fibroadenoma (GFA). This definition is not universally acceptedbut has been used in several studies. We retrospectively presented fibroadenoma cases that were treated in our clinic, together with a review of thecurrent literature.Materials and Methods: The GFA cases that were surgically treated in our clinic between January 2016 and December 2019 were retrospectivelyreviewed. The data were collected from patient files, discharge reports, surgical notes, pathology reports, patient follow-up forms, and digitalrecords. Patients whose data were not fully available were excluded from the study. The patients were analyzed in terms of age, duration ofsymptom, macroscopically size of the mass and location.Results: Eight patients were analyzed. The mean age of the patients was 31.5±5.8 (23-41) years. The mean time of diagnosis before the operationwas 36.75±14.49 (18-60) months. The lesion was in the left breast for five patients (62.5%) and in the right breast for three patients (37.5%). Themean size of fibroadenomas was 52.5±2 (50-56) mm.Conclusion: There is not a consensus in the ideal treatment protocol of GFAs. A careful physical examination and radiological examination aresufficient for diagnosis, but a biopsy will be beneficial in the context of a GFA. We think that excision should be done in the treatment of GFAs.

    Is body mass index and obesity surgery mortality score important in perioperative complications of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy before discharge?
    (Colegio Brasileiro de Cirurgia Digestiva, 2021) Bozan, Mehmet Buğra; Kutluer, Nizamettin; Aksu, Ali; Azak Bozan, Ayşe; Kanat, Burhan Hakan; Büyük, Abdullah
    Background: Morbid obesity surgery and related complications have increased with time. Aim: To evaluate the relationship between perioperative complications before discharge and preoperative body mass index and obesity surgery mortality score in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Method: 1617 patients who met the inclusion criteria were evaluated retrospectively. The patients were examined in terms of demographic data, presence of comorbidities, whether there were complications or not, type of complications and obesity surgery mortality score. Results: Complications were seen in 40 patients (2.5%) and mortality wasn’t seen in the early postoperative period before discharge. The mean age of patients with complications was 36.3±10.02 years (19-57) and without complications 34.12±9.54 (15–64) years. The preoperative mean BMI values of patients with and without complications were 45.05±3.93 (40–57) kg/m2 and 44.8±3.49 (35–67) kg/m2 respectively. According to BMI groups 40–45 kg/m2, 45–50 kg/m2 and 50 and over, there was not any statistical significance seen in three groups in terms of complication positivity and major-minor complication rates. There was not any statistical significance seen between the patients with and without major-minor complications and obesity surgery mortality score. Conclusion: There was not any relation between perioperative laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy complication rates before discharge and BMI and obesity surgery mortality scores.

    Is gastroscopy necessary before bariatric surgery?
    (World J Gastrointest Endosc, 2022) Kanat, Burhan Hakan; Doğan, Serhat
    Obesity is the abnormal accumulation of fat or adipose tissue in the body. It has become a serious health problem in the world in the last 50 years and is considered a pandemic. Body mass index is a widely used classification. Thus, obese individuals can be easily classified and standardized. Obesity is the second cause of preventable deaths after smoking. Obesity significantly increases mortality and morbidity. We thought of preparing a publication about routine procedures for the preoperative evaluation of obesity. The question that we asked as bariatric and metabolic surgeons but which was not exactly answered in the literature was "Is esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) necessary before bariatric surgery? " We found different answers in our literature review. The European Association of Endoscopic Surgery guidelines recommend EGD for all bariatric procedures. They strongly recommend it for Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). As a result of a recent study by the members of the British Obesity & Metabolic Surgery Society, preoperative EGD is routinely recommended for patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy, even if they are asymptomatic, but not recommended for RYGB. It is recommended for symptomatic patients scheduled for RYGB. According to the International Sleeve Gastrectomy Expert Panel Consensus Statement, preoperative EGD is definitely recommended for patients scheduled for sleeve gastrectomy, but its routine use for RYGB is controversial. However, a different view is that the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy recommends endoscopy only for symptomatic patients scheduled for bariatric surgery. In the literature, the primary goal of EGD recommended for sleeve gastrectomy has been interpreted as determining esophagitis caused by gastroesophageal reflux. In the light of the literature, it is stated that this procedure is not necessary in America, while it is routinely recommended in the European continent. Considering medicolegal cases that may occur in the future, we are in favor of performing EGD before bariatric surgery. In conclusion, EGD before bariatric surgery is insurance for both patients and physicians. There is a need for larger and prospective studies to reach more precise conclusions on the subject.

    Use of silver nitrate application as mini-invasive treatment of pilonidal sinus disease
    (Editura Celsius, 2021) Kanat, Burhan Hakan; Yazar, Fatih Mehmet; Kutluer, Nizamettin; Solmaz, Özgen Arslan; Bozan, Mehmet Buğra; Çay, Ferhat; Eröz, Erhan; Saçlı, Atakan
    Objective: To investigate the cure rate and adverse effects of silver nitrate application for treatment of pilonidal sinus disease (PSD). Methods: Number of sinus pit orifices, and complications with silver nitrate application and debridement for sacrococcygeal PSD between January 2015 and July 2018 were analyzed in this retrospective study. Data were obtained from surgical, discharge, and outpatient follow-up records. Among 56 patients who were treated with silver nitrate stick, 11 patients with incomplete hospital records were excluded from the study. Demographic data including age, gender, length of follow-up, number of silver nitrate applications, number of involved sinuses and recurrence and complication rates were recorded. Results were expressed as frequencies, means, and range of values. The Mann Whitney U and chi square tests were used to evaluate significance. Results: Mean age was 24.3 ± 5.18 (range, 14-36) years, and recurrence occurred in 4 (8.9%) patients. Complications developed in 10 (22.2%) patients and included abscess, erythema, and necrosis in 5 (11.1%), 2 (4.4%), and 3 (6.6%) patients, respectively. The recurrence rate was significantly higher in patients who developed abscesses during the follow-up period (p = 0.001) than those who did not. There was no statistically significant correlation between the recurrence rate and number of sinuses or the number of silver nitrate applications. Conclusion: Low morbidity and high healing rates achieved with silver nitrate provide support for this application as a feasible and effective conservative outpatient treatment for PSD in certain patients.
