Öğe Diagnosis of Pulmonary Hydatid Cyst by Bronchoscopy(Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2015) Yasar, Z.; Acat, M.; Turgut, E.; Onaran, H.; Dincer, H.E.; Arda, N.; Çetinkaya, E.Hydatid cyst is a parasitic infestation caused by Echinococcus granulosus. Lungs are the second most common site of involvement after liver. The diagnosis of complicated pulmonary hydatid cysts may not be easy because hydatid cyst disease mimics tuberculosis, lung cancer, empyema, or abscess. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy can be a valuable tool in the diagnosis of the infestation by visualization of hydatid cyst membrane. Here, we report the case of a 33-year-old woman who presented with hemoptysis and chest discomfort and was diagnosed with a hydatid cyst by fiberoptic bronchoscopy. © 2015 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

In recent years, endoscopic treatment has increasingly been used to treat benign endobronchial lesions. Methods: Data from all adult patients diagnosed with a histologically proven endobronchial hamartoma and lipoma were collected between 2009 and 2014 at our clinic in the Yedikule Chest Diseases Education and Research Hospital. Results: 9 patients were included in the study; 6 patients were diagnosed with endobronchial hamartoma(66%) and 3 had endobronchial lipoma. Six patients were symptomatic. All patients underwent rigid bronchoscopy and biopsies taken during treatment were diagnostic in all cases. Lesions were mostly located at the lobar bronchus. Seven (77%) cases were successfully treated and there were no complications because of the procedure. Two patients was sent for lobectomy because of inadequate debulking. Recurrence was not seen in any patient. Conclusion: Interventional bronchoscopic techniques may be a safe and effective method for diagnosing and treating endobronchial benign tumors. © Mattioli 1885.Öğe A rare case of tracheal lymphoma presenting with severe tracheal stenosis(Mattioli 1885 S.p.A., 2015) Ozgul, A.; Yasar, Z.A.; Sahin, U.; Acat, M.; Tecimer, T.; Çetinkaya, E.Primary malignant lymphoma of the trachea is rare and its underlying mechanism remains unknown. Primary tracheal tumors are also very rare causes of airway obstructions. This case report features a 60 year-old woman who presented with the complaint of dyspnea. A mass narrowing the tracheal lumen posteriorly in the subglottic area and mediastinal lymphadenopathy was detected by computed tomography scan and a rijit bronchoscopy was performed. This showed polypoid, variable-sized, irregular nodules causing narrowing of the tracheal lumen over a 3 cm segment in the middle part of the trachea and a mass protruding into the tracheal lumen from the posterior part of the proximal trachea. Multiple biopsy was carried out from the nodules and the airway obstruction was treated with Argon Plasma Coagulation (APC). After removal of the debris, tracheal lumen patency was obtained. The histopathology examination revealed a small lymphocytic primary non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma of the trachea. To our knowledge, this is the first case of small lymphocytic primary tracheal lymphoma in the literature. © Mattioli 1885.Öğe Results of bronchoscopic excision in typical carcinoid tumors of the lung in Turkey(Medical Association of Zenica-Doboj Canton, 2017) Boyaci, H.; Çörtük, M.; Gül, S.; Tanriverdi, E.; Özgül, M.A.; Dinçer, H.E.; Çetinkaya, E.Aim Carcinoid tumors of the lung are the tumors originating from the neuroendocrine cells. Surgical excision remains the gold standard for the treatment. Treatment with interventional bronchoscopic excision has also been reported as an alternative option in typical carcinoid tumors of the lung. The aim of this study was to present results and outcomes in patients who were bronchoscopically treated and followed-up. Methods Data of 14 patients, who had undergone bronchoscopic excision due to typical carcinoid tumor of the lung between April 2008 and July 2015 were retrospectively evaluated. Bronchoscopic excision procedures were performed under general anesthesia, while control bronchoscopies were carried out with flexible bronchoscopy. Time between the first and last bronchoscopies was accepted as the follow-up duration. Results A total of 14 patients was evaluated with eight (57.1%) males. Mean age was 43.57±14.07 (23-68) years. The most common symptoms were shortness of breath and coughing. Mean of 5.69±3.35 (2-12) bronchoscopy procedures were performed in the patients during the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up. Mean follow-up duration was 32.0±19.22 months. At the long-term follow-up, two patients developed 50% stenosis and one patient developed granulation tissue in the endobronchial treatment site. None of the patients developed recurrence during the mean 32-month follow-up. Conclusion Endobronchial treatment is a safe and successful treatment method in well selected typical carcinoid tumor cases that are centrally located, having no radiological suspicion of local or distant metastasis, distally visible but not located on the bronchi with a wide base on bronchoscopy. © 2017, Medical Association of Zenica-Doboj Canton.
