Publication Metadata only The in vitro effects of iloprost with other vasodilators on the human internal thoracic artery.(2010-04-01T00:00:00Z) Cantürk, EMİR; ARSLAN, C; ALTıNOK, A; ÖZYAZGAN, S; BESIRLI, K; BOZKURT, AK; AKKAN, G; CANTÜRK, EMIR; AKKAN, AHMET GÖKHANPublication Open Access Should Sinus of Valsalva be Replaced in Patients with Dilated Ascending Aorta and Aortic Valve Diseases?(2018-06-01) KÖKSAL, CENGİZ; CANTÜRK, EMIR; KÖKSAL, CENGİZIntroduction: The aim of this study is to investigate the change in the dimension of sinus of Valsalva in patients who underwent supracoronary ascending aorta replacement with aortic valve replacement. Methods: A total of 81 patients who underwent supracoronary ascending aorta replacement with aortic valve replacement were included. Ten of 81 patients died during the follow-up. The patients were divided into three groups according to the aortic valve diseases. Group I (n=17) included patients with bicuspid valves, group II (n=30) included patients with stenotic degenerative valves, and patients with aortic regurgitation constituted group III (n=24). In preoperative and follow-up periods, the sinus of Valsalva diameter of the patients was evaluated by echocardiographic examination. The mean age was 54.1±15.1 years. Twenty-eight (34.6%) patients were female and 12 (14.8%) patients were in New York Heart Association functional class III. Results: There was no early mortality. Late mortality was developed in 10 (12.4%) patients, 8 (9.9%) due to non-cardiac reasons. Late follow-up was obtained in 71 patients with a mean of 60±30.1 months postoperatively. During follow-up, the increase in the diameter of the sinus of Valsalva was significant in Group I (P<0.01), while in Group II and III it was insignificant (P>0.05). Conclusion: To avoid the risks associated with sinus of Valsalva dilatation, it is reasonable to replace the sinus of Valsalva in the setting of aortic valve replacement and ascending aorta replacement for bicuspid aortic valve with a dilated ascending aorta and relatively normal sinuses of Valsalva in young patients.

Transthoracic echocardiography and cine-angiography revealed infundibular, valvular pulmonary stenosis and a small subaortic ventricular septal defect. Infundibular resection, transannular pericardial patch replacement and pulmonary valve reconstruction with pericardium were performed. New pulmonary valve was evaluated with multislice computed tomography.Publication Metadata only Dosimetric evaluation of right coronary artery in radiotherapy for breast cancer(2019-09-01T00:00:00Z) Altinok, Ayse; Askeroglu, Orbay; Doyuran, Mine; Caglar, Mustafa; CANTÜRK, Emir; Erol, Cengiz; Bese, Nuran; CANTÜRK, EMIRComparison with control groups of untreated patients suggests that right-breast-cancer patients who receive radiotherapy have a higher rate of heart disease. Dose constraint for heart has been established to minimize radiotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity during left breast cancer treatment. Additionally, it is suggested to minimize the dosage on left anterior descending (LAD) artery. Right coronary artery (RCA), is the second largest artery, after left main coronary artery, supplying the heart. A dose evaluation study is not present for RCA; the proximal part of which is included in the irradiation field during breast cancer treatment of right breast. To investigate the presence of a correlation, doses resulting from right and left breast radiotherapy on proximal RCA (pRCA), LAD, and heart are evaluated in this study. Forty breast cancer patients who went under breast-conserving surgery are the subject of this study. Four groups were established; right breast, right breast and internal mammary (IM), left breast and left breast, and IM. pRCA, LAD, and heart volumes were contoured for each group on the planning tomographies. Resultant doses of tangential fields planning on these volumes were compared using dose-volume histograms. Mean and maximum doses of pRCA were statistically compared between groups. The highest mean and maximum point doses (192 to 284 cGy) were found in the right breast + IM group (p < 0.05). The mean and maximum doses only in the right breast and left breast + IM group did not differ statistically. However, the mean and maximum pRCA doses in these 2 groups were higher than only the left breast group (p < 0.05). pRCA receives high doses during radiotherapy of right and left breast especially if IM is included. This may predispose to coronary artery disease. (C) 2018 American Association of Medical Dosimetrists. Published by Elsevier Inc.
