Moğolların Anadolu'ya gelişinin kaçınılmaz bir sonucu olarak Orta Anadolu'da sıkışan Türk unsurları, Anadolu'da Bizans İmparatorluğu'nun elinde kalan son toprak parçası olan Batı Anadolu kıyılarına yönelerek; bu coğrafyanın da fethini tamamlamışlardı. Bu bağlamda iki menderes nehri arasında kalan verimli topraklar da, Aydınoğullarının hâkimiyet sahası olarak şekillenmişti. Aydın Bey ve Mehmed Bey ile başlayan fütûhat hareketinin neticesinde, bir asırdan fazla siyasî ömrü olan bir beylik kurmuşlardı. Latinlerin oldukça etkin olduğu ve canlı bir kıyı ticaretinin bulunduğu bir coğrafyada kurulan Aydınoğulları, kaçınılmaz olarak faal bir askerî faaliyet içerisindeydiler. Bu tezde XIV. yüzyılın başlarında kurulan ve XV. yüzyılın ortalarına doğru kat'i bir surette Osmanlı hâkimiyetine giren Aydınoğullarının kuruluş sürecinden, dağılma dönemlerine kadar sürdürdükleri her türlü askerî faaliyetleri incelenerek, genel bir panoramasının çıkarılması hedeflenmiştir.

rpose: This study aims to determine the risk factors associated with multi-drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDR-Pa) infections. Methods: A case control study was conducted at the Dicle University Hospital which is 1150-bed tertiary care teaching hospital in Diyarbakir, Turkey. The study cases were recruited from patients with nosocomial MDR-Pa infections. Two control cases were arranged to compare risk factors of MDR-Pa infections. One of the control groups was composed of patients with non-MDR-Pa infections and the other group with non-MDR Gram-negative bacterial infections except P. aeruginosa. Results: Overall, 225 patients were included in the study, 75 with MDR-Pa infections, 150 control cases (75 non-MDR-Pa and 75 MDR Gram-negative non P. aeruginosa infections). The incidence of MDR-Pa infections was found as 3.1/1,000 admissions. Multivariate analysis showed that multiple invasive procedures (Relative Risk 24.57 (95% Confidence Interval 4.45135.73) p 10 days) (RR 4.68 (CI=2.09-10.49) p 10 gün) (RR 4.68 (CI = 2.09 10,49) p

Paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis (PLE), a rare and diagnostically-challenging encephalopathy, is frequently associated with an underlying malign neoplastic tumor. Epileptic symptoms are uncommon but can be the first sign of the disease. We present a patient admitted to our intensive care unit (ICU) unit with epileptic seizure and a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) of six. All tests and investigations that had been utilized for this patient's diagnosis, including blood tests, serological analyses, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), electroencephalogram (EEG) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) test results were evaluated. The patient had been diagnosed with ovarian carcinoma within the last year. The patient's cancer history, her most recent complaints and MRI results were strongly suspicious for paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis. Her neurological condition improved rapidly in a few days with steroid therapy. This case showed that any neurological deterioration based on an ovarian oncologic disease can bring PLE to mind. The possibility of PLE must be taken into consideration in patients presenting with epileptic seizures after neoplastic diagnoses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Tetanus is an infection disease caused by Clostridium tetani with high mortality in which tonic muscle spasms are existed. A 60-year-old male patient had a trauma on his right foot ten days ago. His general condition was middle, conscious, cooperated, oriented enough and he had trismus and risus sardonicus. His pupils were isochoric, myotic, respiration was tachypneic (25/min), fever was 36.2oC, and he was tachycardic (128/min). He was intubated once his tachypnea increased, and mechanical ventilation was started. The case was scored as Ablett Grade III. Tracheostomy was opened in his seventh day after admitted intensive care unit. Weaning procedure was started to him when he was stable for respiratory and hemodynamically in twenty sixth day and discharged from intensive care unit to service in thirty second day. Preventing of complications and autonomic dysfunction, and controlling of muscular rigidity and spasms are general major therapeutic approaches in patients who are left over in intensive care unit. Also, we think that using of Bispectral index (BIS) will be effective for the therapeutic approachs to determining level of sedation., Tetanoz, Clostridium tetani'nin toksini ile oluşan, tonik kas spazmlarıyla seyreden, mortalitesi yüksek bir infeksiyon hastalığıdır. Altmış yaşında erkek hastanın, 10 gün önce sağ ayağı paslı çivi ile yaralanmış. Genel durum orta, bilinç açık, koopere ve oriante olan hastanın çenesinde kilitlenme ve risus sardonicus gözlendi. Pupiller izokorik ve miyotik, solunum takipneik (25/dak), ateş 36,2oC ve taşikardik idi (128/dak). Takipnesi artan olguya endotrakeal entübasyon uygulanarak mekanik ventilasyona başlandı. Bu haliyle olgu Ablett sınıflaması Grade III olarak değerlendirildi. Yoğun bakıma yatırılan olguya yedinci günde trakeostomi açıldı. Yirmi altıncı günde solunum ve hemodinamik olarak stabil olan hastada weaning işlemine başlanarak otuz ikinci günde servise devredildi. Uzamış yoğun bakım hastalarındaki komplikasyonların ve otonomik disfonksiyonların önlenmesi, musküler rijidite ve spazmın kontrolu genel major terapötik yaklaşımlardır. Ayrıca sedasyon düzeyinin belirlenmesinde Bispectral index (BIS)'in kullanılmasının terapötik yaklaşımlar açısından faydalı olacağı düşünüldü.

Kedi tırmığı hastalığı,Bartonella henseleae,zoonoz,lenfadenopati - Abstract
Cat scratch disease is slow progressing disease that is mostly seen in children and young adults and is characterized with regional lymphadenopathy. It is caused by Bartonella henseleae. The causative agent is commonly transmitted from cats to human. The disease is presented with regional lymphadenopathy, fever, fatigue and weakness. A 44-year-old woman admitted to General Surgery Policlinic with right axillary mass was interned. Axillary lymphadenopathy was detected in her physical examination and the aspiration cytology was performed. It was reported that the axillary lymphadenopathy was interpreted as the suspicion of axillary lymph node involvement of breast cancer. Subsequently, the excisional biopsy of axillary lymphadenopathy was performed and the histopathological examination revealed the granulomatous lymphadenitis consistent with cat scratch disease. Cat scratch disease should be kept in mind in patients admitted with axillary lymphadenopathy without infectious findings., Kedi Tırmığı Hastalığı; daha çok çocuklarda ve genç erişkinlerde görülen, bölgesel lenfadenopati ile karakterize yavaş seyirli bir enfeksiyon hastalığıdır. Hastalığın etkeni Bartonella henseleae’dır. Etken, sıklıkla kediler tarafından insanlara bulaştırılır. Hastalık; bölgesel lenfadenopati, ateş, halsizlik ve yorgunluk gibi yakınmalarla kendini gösterir. Genel Cerrahi polikliniğine sağ koltuk altında şişlik yakınmasıyla başvuran 44 yaşında bayan hasta yatırıldı. Fizik incelemesinde sağ aksiller lenfadenopati saptanan hastanın, lenf bezinden ince iğne aspirasyon biyopsisi yapıldı. Biyopsi sonucu; “meme kanserine bağlı aksiller lenf bezi tutulumu şüphesi” olarak bildirildi. Daha sonra yapılan aksiller lenf bezi eksizyonel biyopsisinin histopatolojik incelemesi; “Kedi Tırmığı Hastalığı ile uyumlu granülomatöz lenfadenit” olarak tanımlandı. Enfeksiyon bulgusu vermeyen aksiller lenfadenopati ile başvuran hastaların ayırıcı tanısında, nadir de olsa, Kedi Tırmığı Hastalığı düşünülmelidir.

Convulsion is an infrequent side effect of beta-lactam antibiotics. A nine-years-old boy patient admitted to the emergency room with fever, coughing, and dyspnea. Patient was hospitalized with diagnosis of empyema and ESBL positive Pseudomonas aeruginosa was isolated on blood agar culture of empyema material. The patient was treated with imipenem/cilastatin and amikacin and improved clinically, but developed convulsion with tonic-clonic myospasms at 18th day of therapy. The treatment of imipenem withdrawn because of its close relation with convulsions, and antiepileptic therapy was started. We could not find any other possible etiologic cause of convulsion by physical examination and laboratory evaluation. The patient was discharged with full recovery at 21th day of hospitalization.

Giriş ve Amaç: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, birçok antibiyotiğe karşı doğal dirençli olup yüksek morbidite ve mortalite ile seyreden ciddi hastane enfeksiyonlarına neden olabilir. Gelişen dirençlerin bir araya gelmesi ve antibiyotikler arasında çapraz direnç gelişimi, `'çoklu antibiyotik dirençli'' P. aeruginosa (ÇADPa) sorununu ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Bu çalışmada hastanemizde yatan hastalarda ÇADPa enfeksiyonlarının risk faktörleri araştırıldı.Materyal ve Metot: Dicle Üniversitesi Hastanesinde ÇADPa enfeksiyonu için risk faktörlerini belirlemek amacıyla prospektif olarak vaka-kontrol çalışması yapıldı. Hastalara, klinik örneklerden ÇADPa izole edilen bakterilerin kaydedilmesi ile ulaşıldı. ÇADPa ile hastane enfeksiyonu gelişen hastalar vaka grubu olarak alındı. İki farklı kontrol grubu oluşturuldu. Her vakadan sonra gelen uygun ilk hasta kontrol grubuna dahil edildi. Birinci kontrol grubunda (K?1) çoklu antibiyotik direnci olmayan P. aeruginosa suşları vardı. İkinci kontrol grubuna (K?2) ise çoklu antibiyotik direnci olmayan Gram negatif bakterilerin yaptığı hastane enfeksiyonları alındı. Vaka ve kontrol hastalarının demografik özellikleri, laboratuvar değerleri ve muhtemel ÇADPa risk faktörleri kaydedildi. ÇADPa suşlarının antibiyotik duyarlılıkları `'Disk Diffüzyon Testi'' (Oxoid) ile doğrulandı. ÇADPa gelişimi için risk faktörü olabilecek değişkenler tek değişkenli ve çok değişkenli lojistik regresyon analizi ile test edildi.Bulgular: Çalışmaya alınan hastalarda yaş ortalamaları vakaların 29,8 ± 27,2 yıl, K-1'de 29,2 ± 25,9 yıl, K-2'de 46,6 ± 24,8 yıl idi. Vakaların % 59'u, K-1'in % 69'u, K-2'nin % 61'i erkekti. Tek değişkenli analizde her iki grupta da çok sayıda değişken risk faktörü olarak görülmekteydi. Çok değişkenli analize göre K?1 ile karşılaştırıldığında anlamlı olan risk faktörleri; Karbapenem kullanımı (p

The use of devices and device-related infections (DRI) in Dicle University Hospital were evaluated. DRI were identified according to the definitions of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). DRI rates were calculated as the number of infections per 1000 device-days. During the one year period of 2006, 42843 patients were followed and 602 hospital infection episodes were detected in 545 patients. Of these infections, 174 were identified as DRI. Of 174 DRI, 78 were urinary tract infections (URI), 66 were mechanical ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) and 30 were central venous catheter infections (CVC). The rates of DRI (infection/1000 device-day) were 2.7 for CVC related bacteremia, 2.4 for URI and 12.7 for VAP. Accurate determination of the invasive procedure indications, removal of the device as early as possible will decrease the rate of DRI.

Laryngeal tuberculosis is rarely seen nowadays. Diagnostic delays are common in laryngeal tuberculosis because it might be confused with other diseases. It is usually accompanied by pulmonary tuberculosis and has a high risk of transmission. Therefore, it poses a serious problem in terms of public health. In this report, two cases of laryngeal tuberculosis are presented, a 25-year-old female and a 78-year-old male prediagnosed as gastroesophageal reflux and laryngeal cancer, respectively. Their diagnoses were delayed, and they have pulmonary tuberculosis as well. Both cases diagnosed by chest radiography and microbiological examination of sputum. In both cases, full recovery was achieved with a 6-month antituberculous treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Geyik, Mehmet Faruk/0000-0002-0906-0902; Tegin, Ibrahim/0000-0002-5661-7195 WOS: 000298927000020 Wagner's classification is the most widely used grading system in diabetic foot infections. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of the trace elements in diabetic foot infected patients graded with Wagner's classification. This prospective study was carried out on 50 diabetic patients with variable severity of foot infections and 50 age and sex matched healthy subjects in Dicle University, Turkey, between October 2006 and November 2008. Diabetic foot infections were graded according to Wagner classification and deep tissue cultures were performed from all diabetic foot infected patients. The atomic absorption spectrophotometer was used in the measurement of trace elements in the serum. serum zinc and copper levels were significantly elevated in patients with Wagner 3 and 4 compared to Wagner 2 and 1 graded patients and healthy controls. Also Wagner 1 and 2 graded patients had higher serum zinc levels compared to healthy controls (p < 0.001). This study confirms that trace elements may be used as a leading sign to determine the severity of infections in diabetic foot wounds and may be used to predict outcome of diabetic foot infections.

Geyik, Mehmet Faruk/0000-0002-0906-0902 WOS: 000297967400005 Objective: To evaluate the effect of trace elements in patients with Helicobacter pylori associated chronic gastritis Design: Prospective study Settings: Clinical services of the clinical microbiology and infectious diseases and gastroenterology clinics at Dicle University, Turkey Subjects:A total of 92 patients with variable severity of chronic gastritis (45 Helicobacter pylori positive and 47 Helicobacter pylori negative gastritis) and 90 age and sex matched healthy subjects were included in the study conducted between October 2006 and November 2008. Intervention: Histopathologic examination, culture of Helicobacter pylori and urease tests were performed for each patient. The atomic absorption spectrophotometer was used in the measurement of trace elements in the serum. Main Outcome Measures: Serum copper and zinc levels were significantly elevated in patients with Helicobacter pylori associated gastritis compared to Helicobacter pylori negative gastritis and healthy controls (p < 0.0001). Serum copper, zinc and Cu / Zn levels in patients with Helicobacter pylori negative chronic gastritis was not significantly different from the serum levels in healthy controls (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Our results suggest a relationship between Helicobacter pylori associated chronic gastritis and the elevation of trace element levels in serum. This study confirms that the elevation of trace element levels in serum (Cu and Zn levels) will be helpful in the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori associated chronic gastritis in the abscence of invasive procedures, and is useful in predicting the severity of infection in patients with chronic gastritis.

Genel ve Dahili Tıp - Abstract
Proteus mirabilis’e bağlı menenjit ve intrakraniyal apse gelişimi, özellikle neonatal dönemde ve immün yetmezliği olan bireylerde görülmektedir. Acil servise; üç gündür devam eden ateş, bulantı ve kusma yakınmalarıyla başvuran 35 yaşında erkek hastanın, 10 gün önce sol üst çeneden diş çektirdiği öğrenildi. Klinik ve laboratuar olarak akut bakteriyel menenjit ile uyumlu olan hastaya ampirik seftriakson 2x2 gr/gün parenteral başlandı. Kan ve beyin omurilik sıvısı (BOS)’nda P. mirabilis üreyen hastanın; yatışın yedinci gününde yakınmalarının tekrar başlaması üzerine, kranial MR çekildi. MR’da sol temporalde beyin apsesi saptanan hastaya cerrahi tedavi uygulandı. Cerrahi sonrası sekiz haftalık antibiyotik tedavisi ile tamamen iyileşme görüldü. Başvuru sırasında menenjitin dental cerrahiye bağlı oluştuğu düşünülen hastada, daha sonra çekilen temporal BT sonrası mastoidit tespit edildi. Olguda gelişen menenjit ve beyin absesinin mastoidite bağlı olduğu düşünüldü. Menenjit olgularında, duyarlı antibiyotiğe rağmen düzelme saptanmaması durumunda intrakranial apse düşünülmeli, erişkin ve immün yetmezliği olmayan olgularda da P. mirabilis’e bağlı menenjit gelişebileceği unutulmamalıdır. Meningitis and intracranial abscess due to Proteus mirabilis is seen especially in the neonatal period and among the patients with immune deficiency. It was learned that 35 years old male patient who applied to the emergency room with ongoing fever, nausea and vomiting for three days have had their upper left jaw tooth out 10 days ago. As clinical and laboratory to patients with acute bacterial meningitis empirical ceftriaxone 2x2 gr/day parenteral was started. The cranial MR of the patient, that has P. mirabilis producing in their blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) culture, was taken at the seventh day of hospitalization as his complaints started again. In the MR, abscess was detected in the left temporal brain of the patient and a surgical treatment was applied. Complete healing was seen eight week treatment with antibiotics after surgery. During application it was though that meningitis has occurred due to the dental surgery, however after the temporal BT, mastoiditis was detected. It was thought that meningitis and brain abscess developed on the patient was caused by mastoiditis. Even with sensitive antibiotics if no recovery is observed in patients with meningitis, intracranial abscess should be considered, also it should not be forgotten that in adults and patients with no immune deficiency meningitis due to P. mirabilis may develop.

Brain abscess ,Meningitis ,Proteus mirabilis - Abstract
Meningitis and intracranial abscess due to Proteus mirabilis is seen especially in the neonatal period and among the patients with immune deficiency. It was learned that 35 years old male patient who applied to the emergency room with ongoing fever, nausea and vomiting for three days have had their upper left jaw tooth out 10 days ago. As clinical and laboratory to patients with acute bacterial meningitis empirical ceftriaxone 2x2 gr/day parenteral was started. The cranial MR of the patient, that has P. mirabilis producing in their blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) culture, was taken at the seventh day of hospitalization as his complaints started again. In the MR, abscess was detected in the left temporal brain of the patient and a surgical treatment was applied. Complete healing was seen eight week treatment with antibiotics after surgery. During application it was though that meningitis has occurred due to the dental surgery, however after the temporal BT, mastoiditis was detected. It was thought that meningitis and brain abscess developed on the patient was caused by mastoiditis. Even with sensitive antibiotics if no recovery is observed in patients with meningitis, intracranial abscess should be considered, also it should not be forgotten that in adults and patients with no immune deficiency meningitis due to P. mirabilis may develop. © 2010 Düzce Medical Journal.

Amaç: Yoğun bakım ünite (YBÜ)’lerinin sıkça saptanan etkenlerinin ve bunların duyarlı oldukları antibiyotiklerin bilinmesi bunlara yönelik uygulanacak tedavilerin planlanmasında yarar sağlayabilir. Bu çalışmada nöroşirürji kliniği YBÜ’sinde alınan kültürlerden izole edilen etkenler ve antibiyotik duyarlılıklarının belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Dicle Üniversitesi Araştırma Hastanesi Nöroroşirurji Kliniği’nde 2001-2005 yılları arasında değişik etyolojilerle yatırılıp, nöroroşirurji YBÜ’sinde 48 saatten uzun süre takip edilmiş hastaların dosyaları retrospektif olarak incelenerek alınan kültürler değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Beş yıllık sürede ameliyat edilen toplam 2197 hastanın 457’sinin NYBÜ’sinde izlendiği ve bunlardan toplam 1155 kültür örneğinin alındığı belirlendi. NYBÜ’sinde izlenen 123 olgudan alınan 317 kültürü pozitif örneğin 73’ü beyin omurilik sıvısı, 45’i yara yeri aspiratı, 47’si derin trakeal aspirat (DTA), 96’sı idrar, 27’si kan, 29’u damar yolu kateter ucu incelemeleriydi. En sık Staphylococcus aureus, koagülaz negatif stafilokok (KNS) bakterileri saptandı. BOS, kan ve yara yeri örneklerinden KNS, idrar örneklerinden Eschericha coli; DTA’dan Klebsiella pneumoniae; kan kateterlerinden Pseudomonas aureginosa en sık üreyen bakterilerdi. İzole edilen Gram pozitif suşların hiç birinde vankomisine direnç saptanmadı. Gram negatif suşlarda ise en etkili antibiyotiğin imipenem olduğu belirlendi. Sonuç: Nöroşirürji YBÜ’sinde en sık S aureus, KNS ve P. aureginosa, bakterilerinin izole edildi. Enfeksiyon kontrol önlemlerinin sıkı uygulanmasıyla bu infeksiyon oranlarında düşme sağlanabilir. Aim: Knowing the most frequent causative agents and their sensitivities to antibiotics may contribute to use of appropriate antibiotics. In this study, we aimed to investigate the agents and their antibiotic sensitivity which is isolated from intensive care unit of neurosurgery clinic. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study was performed from 2001 to 2005 at the Neurosurgery intensive care unit of Dicle University, Diyarbakir. The patients charts who were followed up more than 48 hours in intensive care unit and their culture results were investigated. Results: There was 457 of 2197 patients which were operated in neurosurgery clinic and it was obtained 1155 culture samples from these patients in five years period. 317 positive cultures were obtained from 123 patients including 73 cerebrospinal fluid, 45 wound, 47 deep tracheal aspirate, 96 were urine samples, 27 blood samples and 29 venous catheters samples. Mostly Staphilococcus aureus and coagulase negative staphylococcus (CNS) were growth in cultures. From the cerebrospinal fluidd, blood and wound the most growth bacteria was coagulase negative staphilococcus, from the urine Eschericha coli, from deep tracheal aspiration. Klebsiella pnömonia, and from venous catheters Pseudomonas aureginosa was mostly showed reproduction. Conclusion: S. aureus, CNS and P. aureginosa were mostly isolated bacteria in neurosurgery intensive care unit. Nosocomial intensive care unit infections can be decreased by appropriate preventive measures

Geyik, Mehmet Faruk/0000-0002-0906-0902 WOS: 000262928800014 Aim: The main objective was to recognize the evaluation of surveillance program on the nosocomial infections (NIs) in Dicle University Hospital (DUH) Materials and Methods: A prevalence study was performed prospectively, at the DUH from 1997 to 2006. Active surveillance for NIs were performed by infection control team, using the criteria proposed by the Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention (CDC) and National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance System (NNIS) methodology. This team includes infection control doctor and two nurses, who visited hospital units three times a week. All cases with NI were recorded using a standard data collection form. Results: During ten years of follow up period, 3382 NI episodes were detected in 3075 patients out of 250209 inpatients. The overall incidence rates (NI/100) and incidence densities (NI/1000 days of stay) of NIs were 1.4% (range 0.8-2.5/100) and 1.7/1000 patients-days (range 0.7-2.5/1000), respectively. NIs were seen frequently in intensive care unit (20.1 episodes per 1000 bed-days), burn unit (14.5 episodes per 1000 bed-days), and neurology (3.7 episodes per 1000 bed-days). The most common NIs according to the primary sites were urinary tract infection (24%), bloodstream infection (22%), pneumonia (13%) and surgical site infection (13%). The most prevalent microorganisms were Escherichia coli (26%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (15%), coagulase-negative staphylococci (14%) and Staphylococcus aureus (13%). Amikacin and meropenem were the most effective agents against Gram-negative bacteria. Meticillin resistance among S. aureus isolates was 67% and all were sensitive to vancomycin. Conclusions: This study represents that the rate of NIs reduced with appropriate interventions. Surveillance and constant monitoring are effective along with educating the staff about infection control practices.

- Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the seroprevalence of hepatitis B and C infections among health-care workers in Elazig Harput State Hospital. Methods: Hepatitis B and C virus markers (HBsAg, Anti-HBs, Anti-HBc IgM, Anti-HBc IgG, Anti-HCV) of 498 health-care persons were retrospectively investigated in this study between July-August 2007 in Elazig Harput State Hospital. Results: A total 20 (4%) health-care workers were positive for HBsAg, 174 (34.9%) for anti-HBs, 4 (0.8%) for anti-HBs as well as anti-HBc IgG, and 2 (0.4%) for anti-HCV. There were no statistical significant differences in point of HBsAg positivity among health-care workers (p>0.05). Anti-HBs positivity was statistically significant high among nurses compared to the others health-care workers (p=0.001). A total 308 (61.8%) health-care workers were seronegative against hepatitis B. Conclusion: The high seronegativity rate against hepatitis B among health-care workers has shown to need to vaccination and education for hepatitis B infection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objectives: This study aims to investigate an epidemic of cutaneous anthrax in Tunceli Province, Eastern Turkey. Materials and methods: Seven cases with cutaneous anthrax, admitted to emergency room, were diagnosed and followed at Elazig Harput State Hospital in August 2011. The possible sources of epidemic and clinical characteristics of the patients were evaluated. Results: The mean age of seven cases with cutaneous anthrax was 34.1±8 years, of whom four were male and three were female. All patients were from the same village of Cemisgezek, Tunceli, and all of them had contacted with a dead animal. Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid-resistant Bacillus anthracis was recovered from a patient' wound. This resistance may be related with the inappropriate use of antibiotics in animal and animal husbandry practices. Conclusion: Most of natural originated anthrax cases are cutaneous. Although the incidence of anthrax has decreased in Turkey, the disease is still endemic in the eastern part of the country. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Tularemia is a zoonotic bacterial infectious disease; its causative agent is Francisella tularensis. Tularemia can lead to outbreaks. The infection may cause severe complications from cutaneous ulceration and regional lymphadenopathies on the transmitting area of the body to fever, pneumonia, or sepsis. Due to the difficulty of diagnosis, tularemia should be considered in the differential diagnosis; otherwise, it can be missed easily. Tularemia should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of patients with sore throat, lymphadenopathy, and neck mass. If not diagnosed timely and treated adequately, it can lead to mortality.

The adverse effects of Pegylated interferon used in the treatment of chronic viral hepatitis are quite frequent. Pegylated interferon alpha-2b was started to a 44-years old male patient with chronic hepatitis B at the dose of 1.5 mcg/kg/week subcutaneously. After the first dose of the treatment; incoherent speaking, confusion, sensation, and orientation disorder occurred in the patient. The delirium was understood to develop in the patient due to pegylated interferon alpha-2b after consultation of the neurology clinic. Haloperidol 2.5 mg three times daily was started for the treatment of delirium. After the first dose of haloperidol, the delirium condition was recovered. Severe neuropsychiatric adverse effects may occur due to interferon treatment. Thus, the first dose of interferon treatment should be given to patients by monitoring in hospital.

A 19-year-old male patient, referring with fatigue, sweating and fever for one week, hospitalized. His general condition was mode rate, conscious, and fever was 38.3°C/axillary, blood pressure was 100/60 mmHg, pulse rate was 72/mm. Rusty ton~e and splenomegaly was detected in his physical examination. Laboratory examination revealed leukocyte 2.500/mm3 (46% lymphocyte), Hb 13.8 gr/dl, Hct 40%, PLT 70.000/mm3, ESR 28/h, CRP 104 mg/l, ALT 40 U/L, AST 39 U/L and Widal test (Salmonella typhi 0 antigen) 1/160 titer were found to be positive, in this patient, Enteric fever was clinically considered because of febuis continue, dicrotic pulse and leucopenia. Ciprofloxacin was started at the dose of 2×500 mg/day orally. His fever complaint improved in 5th day of treatment, and S. typhi grew in blood medium. In 10th day of treatment, his general condition improved dramatically and the laboratory measurements were as follows: leukocyte 6.600/mm3 (23% lymphocyte.), PLY 172.000/mm3, ESR 9/h, CRP 1 mg/I, ALT 23 U/L, AST 14 U/L. Over 38°C fever complaint reoccurred. In all clinical and laboratorial investigations conducted on the patient any infection focus which may be the cause of fever wasn't detected. In 13th day of treatment, as the fever complaint was considered due to ciprofloxacin, the drug was avoided. After 12 hours without ciprofIoxacin, his fever improved. Ciprofloxacin related fever is a rare condition. When physicians are investigating the etiology of fever, they should remember that antibiotics may be cause of fever. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Meningitis and intracranial abscess due to Proteus mirabilis is seen especially in the neonatalperiod and among the patients with immune deficiency. It was learned that 35 years old malepatient who applied to the emergency room with ongoing fever, nausea and vomiting for threedays have had their upper left jaw tooth out 10 days ago. As clinical and laboratory to patientswith acute bacterial meningitis empirical ceftriaxone 2x2 gr/day parenteral was started. Thecranial MR of the patient, that has P. mirabilis producing in their blood and cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) culture, was taken at the seventh day of hospitalization as his complaints started again.In the MR, abscess was detected in the left temporal brain of the patient and a surgical treatmentwas applied. Complete healing was seen eight week treatment with antibiotics after surgery.During application it was though that meningitis has occurred due to the dental surgery, howeverafter the temporal BT, mastoiditis was detected. It was thought that meningitis and brain abscessdeveloped on the patient was caused by mastoiditis. Even with sensitive antibiotics if norecovery is observed in patients with meningitis, intracranial abscess should be considered, alsoit should not be forgotten that in adults and patients with no immune deficiency meningitis dueto P. mirabilis may develop, Proteus mirabilis’e bağlı menenjit ve intrakraniyal apse gelişimi, özellikle neonatal dönemdeve immün yetmezliği olan bireylerde görülmektedir. Acil servise; üç gündür devam eden ateş,bulantı ve kusma yakınmalarıyla başvuran 35 yaşında erkek hastanın, 10 gün önce sol üstçeneden diş çektirdiği öğrenildi. Klinik ve laboratuar olarak akut bakteriyel menenjit ile uyumluolan hastaya ampirik seftriakson 2x2 gr/gün parenteral başlandı. Kan ve beyin omurilik sıvısı(BOS)’nda P. mirabilis üreyen hastanın; yatışın yedinci gününde yakınmalarının tekrar başlamasıüzerine, kranial MR çekildi. MR’da sol temporalde beyin apsesi saptanan hastaya cerrahi tedaviuygulandı. Cerrahi sonrası sekiz haftalık antibiyotik tedavisi ile tamamen iyileşme görüldü.Başvuru sırasında menenjitin dental cerrahiye bağlı oluştuğu düşünülen hastada, daha sonraçekilen temporal BT sonrası mastoidit tespit edildi.

Belirtisiz hepatit A,oral-fekal yolla bulas ,Asymptomatic hepatitis A,oral-fecal contamination - Abstract
Hepatitis A infection is a common infectious disease seen especially in children of developing countries. Personal contact is very considerable among the fecal-oral contagious diseases. A 11-yearsold girl, referring to outpatient clinics of department of family medicine, has the history of contact with her hepatitis A infected friend. Flu-like symptoms arose in 15 days after the contact. Any abnormal parameter except anti-HAV Ig M positiveness wasn’t detected in the laboratory studies. Biochemical parameters were reported as normal during the one-year period of routine control. It was assigned that anti-HAV Ig M, being positive since the beginning of the disease, turned to negative in the 12th month. Because no hepatitis A case after a contact history was established in the literature, existing case was distinguished to present, Hepatit A virüs infeksiyonu gelismekte olan ülkelerde özellikle çocuklarda sik görülen bir infeksiyondur. Oral-fekal yolla bulasan hastalikta kisisel temas çok önemlidir. Aile hekimligi poliklinigine basvuran 11 yasinda bir kiz çocugunda, 25 gün önce hepatit A geçiren bir arkadasiyla temas öyküsü mevcuttu. Temastan 15 gün sonra hastada soguk alginligini animsatan sikayetler gelismisti. Yapilan laboratuvar incelemelerinde anti-HAV IgM pozitifligi disinda anormal bir deger bulunamadi. Bir yil boyunca düzenli araliklarla rutin takibe alinan hastanin biyokimyasal tetkikleri sürekli olarak normal bulundu. Hastaligin baslangicindan itibaren pozitif olan anti-HAV IgM’in 12. ayda negatiflestigi saptandi. Literatür incelemesinde temas sonrasi gelisen hepatit A olgusu saptanamadigi için mevcut olgu sunulmaya deger bulundu

Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a viral zoonotic infectious disease with a high mortality rate. CCHF virus is a member of the Nairovirus genus of the Bunyaviridae family. Infection is transmitted to humans by tick bite or by direct contact with the blood or tissues of infected humans or viraemic livestock. CCHF is endemic in the Central and Northern Anatolia regions of our country. In this article, three cases of CCHF from Eastern Anatolia of Turkey were presented. All of the patients completely recovered with supportive treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
A 14-year-old male child was hospitalized with complaints of a bronchial wheezing, cough, dyspnea, and sputum and a preliminary diagnosis of bronchial asthma and pneumonia. The patient was treated empirically for bronchial asthma and pneumonia, but gave neitherr clinical nor radiological response to treatment. On the high-resolution computerized tomography, a typical spiral image of Ascaris lumbricoides was identified inside a cavity in the upper lobe of the left lung with a diameter of 8x7 cm. Also,migratory pneumonic infiltrations progressing between the lower lobe and hilary region of the left lung were seen. Examination of the peripheral blood smear of the patient revealed eosinophilia (40%), while IgE was measured as 350 IU/mL. The patient was diagnosed as "Loeffler's syndrome" due to A. lumbricoides", and successfully treated with mebendazole 2x100 mg/day for three days. Loeffler's pneumonia should be considered when patients with bronchial asthma and pneumonia do not respond to specific treatment in developing countries. Radiological investigations may be available in the diagnosis of parasitic infections. In this case, early diagnosis by radiologic methods have prevented unnecessary drug use and related complications.

- Abstract
Hydatid disease is a parasitic infection caused by a tapeworm of the genus Echinococcus. There are three known species of Echinococcus that lead to the disease among humans. E. granulosus is the most common of the three. A 26-year-old man admitted to emergency room with a cough, dyspnea, tachycardia, and chest pain was hospitalized with suspected pneumonia. The patient was in poor general condition and was conscious. On physical examination, fever: 37.3°C/axillary, blood pressure: 165/100 mmHg, cardiac pulse: 114/min, remarkable bilateral pretibial edema, peripheral cyanosis, and disseminated rales and rhonchi were found. Chest radiography showed the multiple disseminated cystic formations, and thorax computed tomography showed remarkable dilatation in the ring of pulmonary artery, and multiple cystic formations in the lung area. The disseminated pulmonary hydatid cyst disease was diagnosed according to clinical and laboratory findings. Albendazole 800 mg/kg daily was administered to the patient for three months. The patient recovered markedly after this treatment. To our knowledge, this is the first case of primary disseminated pulmonary hydatid cyst to manifest with right-side cardiac failure. In endemic areas, the morbidity and mortality due to hydatid cyst may be decreased if hydatid cyst is considered among patients with suspected radiologic findings.
