Publication Open Access Pulmonary Edema in the Acute Stage of Rheumatic Fever Treated with Double-Valve Replacement in a Pediatric Patient(2020-03-01T00:00:00Z) Yozgat, Yilmaz; Uzuner, Selcuk; YEŞİLBAŞ, OSMAN; Ogur, Mustafa; YAKUT, KAHRAMAN; Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; Temur, Hafize Otcu; AY, YASİN; YOZGAT, YILMAZ; UZUNER, SELÇUK; YAKUT, KAHRAMAN; AY, YASİNCardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) is a rare clinical condition of acute rheumatic fever (ARF) in the early stage. Generally, CPE can be convalesced by steroid and anticongestive treatment. Herein, we describe a case of a 14-year-old boy with ARF presenting with bilateral pulmonary edema secondary to acute mitral and aortic insufficiency. In this case, the pulmonary edema of ARF was successfully managed by combined surgical replacements of both valves.Publication Metadata only Recurrent Elevation of Troponin Levels in Acute Myocarditis: Is it a Sign of Ventricular Tachycardia?(2020-07-01T00:00:00Z) Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; YEŞİLBAŞ, Osman; UZUNER, SELÇUK; SARITAŞ, BETÜL; ERGÖR, Serap Nur; OTÇU TEMUR, Hafize; YOZGAT, Yılmaz; YEŞİLBAŞ, OSMAN; UZUNER, SELÇUK; SARITAŞ, BETÜL; ERGÖR, SERAP NUR; OTÇU TEMUR, HAFİZE; YOZGAT, YILMAZPublication Open Access Subdural empyema, brain abscess, and superior sagittal sinus venous thrombosis secondary to Streptococcus anginosus(2021-01-01T00:00:00Z) YEŞİLBAŞ, Osman; YOZGAT, Can Yılmaz; Tahaoglu, Irmak; BURSAL DURAMAZ, BURCU; TÜREL, Özden; TEKİN, NUR; UZUNER, SELÇUK; Abdallah, Anas; YEŞİLBAŞ, OSMAN; YOZGAT, YILMAZ; BURSAL DURAMAZ, BURCU; TÜREL, ÖZDEN; TEKİN, NUR; UZUNER, SELÇUKStreptococcus anginosus can be frequently isolated from brain abscesses, but is a rare cause of the liver, lung, and deep tissue abscesses. In this report, we present a patient with subdural empyema, brain abscess, and superior sagittal cerebral venous thrombosis as complications of rhinosinusitis whose purulent empyema sample yielded S. anginosus. A 13-year-old female patient was referred to our pediatric intensive care unit with altered mental status, aphasia, and behavioral change. On a brain computed tomography scan, subdural empyema extending from the left frontal sinus to the frontal interhemispheric area and left hemispheric dura was detected. Intravenous ceftriaxone, vancomycin, and metronidazole treatments were started. Subdural empyema was surgically drained. Postoperative brain magnetic resonance venography imaging showed superior sagittal sinus thrombosis. Cultures obtained from purulent empyema sample revealed S. anginosus. On the third day of hospitalization, a brain computed tomography scan showed brain edema, especially in the left hemisphere and significantly increased subdural empyema that had been previously drained. She was reoperated and decompressive craniectomy was performed. On the fifth day, partial epileptic seizures occurred. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed a brain abscess on the interhemispheric area. The magnetic resonance imaging findings of abscess formation improved on 30th day and she was discharged on the 45th day after the completion of antibiotic therapy.Publication Metadata only Williams Syndrome Presenting with Intractable Staphylococcus aureus Endocarditis(2020-02-14T04:00:00Z) Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; UZUNER, SELÇUK; Yesilbas, Osman; BURSAL DURAMAZ, BURCU; YOZGAT, Yılmaz; İŞCAN, AKIN; TÜREL, Özden; UZUNER, SELÇUK; YEŞİLBAŞ, OSMAN; BURSAL DURAMAZ, BURCU; YOZGAT, YILMAZ; İŞCAN, AKIN; TÜREL, ÖZDENPublication Metadata only Development of Myocardial Infarction in a 12-Year-Old Female after the Use of Inhaled Salbutamol(2020-12-01T00:00:00Z) Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; UZUNER, SELÇUK; OTÇU TEMUR, Hafize; ERGÖR, Serap Nur; GULİYEVA, AYNUR; Tahaoglu, Irmak; Coban, Senay; YOZGAT, YILMAZ; UZUNER, SELÇUK; OTÇU TEMUR, HAFİZE; ERGÖR, SERAP NUR; GULİYEVA, AYNUR; YOZGAT, YILMAZAnomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) accounts for 0.023% of all cases reported in pediatric patients. According to literature, only a handful of ALCAPA patients are able to reach adulthood. Clinical manifestations of ALCAPA range from fatigue during exercise to sudden death in adulthood. Herein, we described a 12-year-old symptomatic patient with ALCAPA who had severe chest pain after using salbutamol treatment for presumed asthma. ALCAPA is one of the curable versions of myocardial ischemia and infarction in childhood. Due to clinical findings in conjunction with electrocardiogram and echocardiography, a computed tomography scan with coronary angiography was performed and the diagnosis of ALCAPA was confirmed. We presented this case because ALCAPA-related myocardial ischemia and infarction in children are rare with only sporadic cases reported. This case illustrated the need for close monitoring and surgery as the best treatment for ALCAPA associated with myocardial infarction.Publication Metadata only Lifesaving Treatment of Aortic Valve Staphylococcus aureus Endocarditis: Daptomycin and Early Surgical Therapy(2021-11-01T00:00:00Z) Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; UZUNER, SELÇUK; AY, YASİN; Temur, Hafize Otcu; Bursal Duramaz, Burcu; TÜREL, Özden; ÇALIM, Muhittin; Buyukpinarbasili, Nur; Yozgat, Yilmaz; UZUNER, SELÇUK; AY, YASİN; BURSAL DURAMAZ, BURCU; TÜREL, ÖZDEN; ÇALIM, MUHITTIN; YOZGAT, YILMAZInfective endocarditis (IE) is an uncommon infection in children. The recommended treatment for native valve endocarditis secondary to methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus infection is antistaphylococcal penicillins such as nafcillin or oxacillin. If the initial therapy fails in IE, it can lead to catastrophic results. Nowadays, daptomycin is the best alternative antimicrobial agent to treat children with severe infections, when standard antimicrobial therapy does not yield a result. Herein, in this article, we described a case of a 16-year-old boy who had aortic valve S. aureus endocarditis with septic embolization and stroke. The patient was successfully treated only with daptomycin as well as surgical therapy in the early phase of the infection.Publication Open Access A 13-Year-Old Boy Who Has Kawasaki Disease Shock Syndrome Presents with Parotitis(2020-03-01T00:00:00Z) YOZGAT, Yılmaz; UZUNER, SELÇUK; Demir, Aysegul Dogan; OĞUR, MUSTAFA; Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; TÜREL, Özden; YOZGAT, YILMAZ; UZUNER, SELÇUK; OĞUR, MUSTAFA; TÜREL, ÖZDENWe report a 13-year-old boy who (initially) had symptoms of toxic shock-like syndrome and mumps. Then, the patient was hospitalized in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) because of his ongoing hemodynamic instability (low blood pressure of 70/30 mm Hg and capillary refill time of > 4 seconds). During his stay in the PICU, the patient was treated with fluid resuscitation and vasoactive infusion and at the same time was diagnosed with Kawasaki disease shock syndrome (KDSS), when giant right coronary artery aneurysms were detected on echocardiographic examination. This case illustrates the risk of KDSS in patient who carries both parotitis and toxic shock-like syndrome. The clinicians should be cautious about detecting any types of coronary artery aneurysms in such patients. This is the first case of KDSS associated with parotitis reported in the literature.Publication Open Access Dermatological Manifestation of Pediatrics Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome Associated with COVID-19 in a 3-Year-Old Girl.(2020-06-04T00:00:00Z) Yozgat, CY; Uzuner, S; Duramaz, BB; Yozgat, Yılmaz; Erenberk, U; Iscan, A; Turel, O; UZUNER, SELÇUK; YOZGAT, YILMAZ; ERENBERK, UFUK; TÜREL, ÖZDENPublication Metadata only Balanced Double Aortic Arch Causing Persistent Respiratory Symptoms Mimicking Asthma in an Infant(2020-09-01T00:00:00Z) OTÇU TEMUR, Hafize; Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; UZUNER, SELÇUK; Ugurlucan, Murat; YAZAN, HAKAN; ÇAKIR, Erkan; YOZGAT, Yılmaz; OTÇU TEMUR, HAFİZE; UZUNER, SELÇUK; YAZAN, HAKAN; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; YOZGAT, YILMAZDouble aortic arch (DAA) is a common form of complete vascular ring. The state of the condition leads to upper airway impediment and compression of the esophagus. A balanced DAA is an extremely rare anomaly. The anatomical aberration cannot be easily diagnosed with echocardiography when an infant has chronic respiratory distress. Herein, we present the case of an 11-month-old girl who had chronic respiratory distress and a balanced DAA.Publication Metadata only A 13-Year-Old Boy Who Has Kawasaki Disease Shock Syndrome Presents with Parotitis(2020-03-01) YOZGAT Y.; UZUNER S.; DOĞAN DEMİR A.; OĞUR M.; YOZGAT C.
