An Alternative Method for the Treatment of Osteoid Osteoma
(Professional Medical Publications, 2011) Guner, Savas; Ceylan, M. Fethi; Guner, S. Ilkay; Kalender, Ali Murat; Sahan, Mehmet Hamdi
Osteoid osteoma is a small, self-limiting osteogenic tumor. The success of the treatment depends on complete resection or destruction of the nidus. Open excision or en bloc excision was the classical treatment of osteoid osteoma before the development of minimally invasive percutaneous methods. Computed tomography guidance is required in the operating room in most of the percutaneous procedures. This enables accurate localization of the tumor and tumor excision can be performed with less bone tissue resection. We performed an alternative treatment that enables surgeons working in clinics where this equipment does not exist, to perform easy resection of the tumor through a mini incision. Mini incisional surgery seems to be an efficient and reliable treatment for osteoid osteoma.
A Case of Wooden Foreign Body Retained in the Calcaneus
(Professional Medical Publications, 2011) Guner, Savas; Ceylan, M. Fethi; Isik, Daghan; Guner, S. Ilkay; Ediz, Levent
Detection of wooden foreign bodies in the extremities still remains a problem despite the developments in imaging methods. Direct X-Rays, ultrasonography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are utilized for detection of foreign bodies in the body. In this report, we have presented a case in which no findings suggestive of a foreign body were detected on ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging, and which underwent a surgical intervention with the prediagnosis of osteomyelitis of the calcaneus.
Compartment Syndrome Due To Extravasation of Iodixanol Contrast Medium: Case Report
(Ortadogu Ad Pres & Publ Co, 2012) Guner, Savas; Ceylan, M. Fethi; Avcu, Serhat; Guner, S. Ilkay; Dogan, Ali
Compartment syndrome due to extravasation of contrast medium is quite rare. The content of the contrast medium, the osmolarity, the ionic/non-ionic structure and the amount of extravasated medium are important factors in the pathogenesis of extravasation injury. Many extravasations are of small volumes causing minimal swelling and erythema. Extravasations of large volumes are important in the development of compartment syndrome due to the non-ionic contrast medium. Early diagnosis is very important in the contrast medium extravasations and conservative treatment is effective in most of the patients. If compartment syndrome develops after extravasation, emergency fasciotomy should be performed immediately. To the best of our knowledge, compartment syndrome due to extravasation of a non-ionic contrast medium, iodixanol, has not previously been reported in the English literature. In this article, a case of extravasation and compartment syndrome due to the administration of iodixanol for thoracic tomography and its treatment was first reported.
Technical Details of Using Sural Flap in Pes Equinovarus Surgery: a Preliminary Report on the Technique
(Springer, 2012) Isik, Daghan; Ceylan, M. Fethi; Guner, Savas; Gokalp, M. Ata; Atik, Bekir
Pes equinovarus is a congenital disease that can be successfully treated with serial casting and percutaneous achillotomy at the newborn stage in most of the cases. Complex surgical interventions are required for patients presenting at advanced age for correction of this deformity. The main problem encountered in the treatment for neglected pes equinovarus cases is repairing the posteromedial skin defect of the ankle due to surgical correction of this deformity. The sural flap is frequently used in the repair of a number of skin defects on the ankles, although reports on the use of this flap in pes equinovarus surgery are scarce. In this article, the technical details of sural flap application in cases with neglected pes equinovarus and the preliminary results of three extremities treated with this method have been presented.
Upper Extremity Injuries Due To Threshing Machine
(Turkish Assoc Trauma Emergency Surgery, 2012) Isik, Daghan; Ceylan, M. Fethi; Tekin, Hakan; Karadas, Sevdegul; Guner, Savas; Canbaz, Yasin
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to report the patients who were admitted to our hospital with upper extremity injuries due to threshing machine, to determine the most appropriate classification, to estimate the treatment modalities, and to discuss the prevention methods. METHODS Twenty-five patients who had suffered injuries sustained by a threshing machine were retrospectively investigated. The patients were analyzed with respect to age, gender, admission month, hospitalization period, the type of injured tissue, and the treatment modality. RESULTS Twenty-four of the patients were male and one was female, and the mean age of the patients was 19.4 (2-51) years; 60% of the patients were under the age of 15. The patients were admitted most commonly in the month of August. CONCLUSION We believe that shielding the rotating components of farming machinery that cause injuries, informing and educating farming families (by physicians), forbidding the entrance of children to areas with agricultural machines, providing information to children in schools (in those regions with developing agriculture) about agricultural accidents and,. their prevention methods, and adjusting the working hours of farming personnel, especially in the hottest Months of the year, may be beneficial in preventing accidents due to farming machinery.
