Bazex Syndrome: Acrokeratosis Paraneoplastica in Association With Simultaneous Multiple Genitourinary Tumors
(Elsevier Inc., 2000) Atilla, M.K.; Yilmaz, Y.; Bekerecioglu, M.; Akpolat, N.; Kösem, M.; Aydin, S.
We report a patient with Bazex (Bazex-Dupre-Christol) syndrome in association with multifocal basal cell carcinoma, epidermoid carcinoma of the lung, adenocarcinoma of the prostate, and possibly undifferentiated carcinoma of the bladder. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a patient with Bazex syndrome that consisted of four tumors, including two genitourinary tumors. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc.
A Case With Bifid Mandibular Condyle Causing Mandibular Dislocation
(2011) Isik, D.; Sunay, M.; Bekerecioglu, M.
Bifid Mandibular condyle is a rare case, which is usually diagnosed after radiological examination or after physical examination of a patient who refers with temporomandibular joint disorders and pain. It is usually unilateral. A bifid mandibular condyle and mandibular dislocation were diagnosed in a 6-year-old boy who presented difficulty in closing his mouth. The patient had a history of trauma, due to a fall while running three months ago. Extracondyle was found to be located bilaterally close to the superomedial region of the zygomatic arch and was seen to be stuck at the temporal fossa. In this case, the extracondyle pulled the real mandibular condyle to the anterior by settling at zygomas' superomedial region. In this case, bifid mandibular condyle was the reason for mandibular dislocation.
Fibrosarcomatous Change in Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans
(1996) Ugras, S.; Kutluhan, A.; Bekerecioglu, M.; Karakok, M.
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans which included fibrosarcomatous areas is rarely seen. In one case, we estimated the proportion of area of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans and fibrosarcomatous area. We also estimated mitotic rate, cellularity, and cytologic anaplasia in these areas. Histologically, the fibrosarcoma area showed a cellularity, mitotic figures, and cytologic anaplasia exceed those seen in the dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans area. The proportion of the fibrosarcoma area was 89%. In both dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans and fibrosarcoma areas, giant cells, necrosis and haemorrhagea was absent. In conclusion, we believe that the dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans which included fibrosarcomatous areas may be an intermediate type between dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans and fibrosarcoma.
Otorhinolaryngological Aspects of Xeroderma Pigmentosum
(1999) Kutluhan, A.; Bekerecioglu, M.; Güney, E.; Metin, A.
Objective: to evaluate the probable presence of otorhinolaryngological pathology accompanied by head and neck region skin findings in patients with Xeroderma pigmentosum. Methods: a total of 19 patients with Xeroderma pigmentosum were investigated for otorhinolaryngological findings. The patients gave their anamnesis and underwent physical examination, audiological tests and endoscopic examination. Results: various malignancies developed in 14 patients on the sun-exposed areas of the head and neck region. Multiple malignancies were found in six of them. There was no other pathological condition secondary to this rare clinical entity. Conclusion: Xeroderma pigmentosum causes skin lesions. Some otolaryngological findings such as rhinitis, sinusitis etc. were thought to be coincidental. Copyright (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
Squamous Carcinoma in a Pressure Sore With a Very Short Latency Period
(2003) Tan, O.; Atik, B.; Bekerecioglu, M.; Tercan, M.; Bayram, I.
Malignancy in a chronic pressure sore is rare among Marjolin's ulcers. Carcinomas arising in pressure sores are highly aggressive and usually fatal. Although carcinomas in pressure sores are generally well-differentiated squamous carcinomas, they can show quite an aggressive course and do not respond either to chemotherapy or radiotherapy. The mortality rate is high despite wide surgical resection. It must be kept in mind that carcinomas may arise in pressure sores and treatment must be early and aggressive. We report a squamous carcinoma arising in a pressure sore that had a very short latency period. The related literature was reviewed.
