A Changing Etiologic Scenario in Liver Transplantation: A Single-Center Cohort Study From Turkey
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Purpose: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is an increasing cause of liver transplantation (LT) worldwide, especially in Europe and North America. In this study, we aimed to investigate the changing pattern of etiologic ... -
An Investigation of Post-Traumatic Growth Experiences among Living Kidney Donors
(Elsevier USA, 2015)More than 1 million patients are estimated to have undergone transplantation in the past years. In recent years, living-donor kidney transplantation accounted for more than 50% of all transplantations. Kidney transplantation ... -
Analysis of the Liver Transplant Waiting List in Our Center
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Background: Liver transplantation (LT) is an important treatment for acute liver failure and end-stage liver disease. Due to the limited supply of livers, there are still thousands of candidates waiting for transplantation ... -
Body Mass Index and Unenhanced CT as a Predictor of Hepatic Steatosis in Potential Liver Donors
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Background: In living-donor liver transplantation, donor hepatic steatosis is crucial for both the donor and the recipient. Body mass index (BMI) and the unenhanced computed tomography liver attenuation index (CT LAI) are ... -
Did Syrian refugees increase the rate of measles in Turkey?
(Elsevier USA, 2020)[No abstract available] -
Does Multiple Bile Duct Anastomosis in Living Donor Liver Transplantation Affect the Postoperative Biliary Complications?
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Purpose: The variation of multiple bile ducts in a living donor graft is not infrequent; however, the literature on the impact of the number of bile ducts on postoperative biliary complications is scarce. We investigated ... -
Effect of Interviews Done by Intensive Care Physicians on Organ Donation
(Elsevier USA, 2017)In this study, we examined the correspondence between intensive care unit physicians and the relatives of potential brain-dead donors regarding the decision to donate or the reasons for refusing organ donation. A total of ... -
Experience in Liver Transplantation Due to Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis: A Single Center Experience
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Purpose: Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease of unknown origin. Although the course of PSC is variable, it frequently is progressive, leading to cirrhosis and requiring a liver ... -
Hand-Assisted Nephrectomy Predisposes Incisional Herniation in Obese Living Donors
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Background: Living kidney donation from donors with a body mass index (BMI) over 30 can bring risks for the donor and the recipients. In this retrospective study, we evaluated the effect of a donor's obesity on a donor's ... -
Impact of Cytokine Adsorption Treatment in Liver Failure
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Sepsis causes life-threatening organ dysfunction and is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients worldwide. Mortality rate of sepsis is close to 30% to 50% despite better understanding of the ... -
Introducing Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy after Experience in Hand-Assisted Retroperitoneoscopic Approach
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Background: Robot-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (RALDN) can help to improve donor safety by enabling enhanced precision, flexibility, control, and vision. We are presenting our initial series during the introduction ... -
Kidney Transplantation Outcomes in Temporarily Protected Syrian Patients With End-Stage Renal Failure in Turkey
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Background: Approximately 6.3 million Syrian people migrated to other countries due to war since 2011. There are more than 3.5 million Syrian people living in Turkey under temporary protection. Syrian people receive free ... -
Liver Graft Volume Estimation by Manual Volumetry and Software-Aided Interactive Volumetry: Which is Better?
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Purpose: Estimation of graft volume is critical in living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the accuracy of software-aided automated computer tomography (CT) volumetry in the preoperative ... -
Mental Distress Symptoms and Life Satisfaction Among Living Kidney Donors: Frequency and Association With Subjective Evaluations
(Elsevier USA, 2019)The aims of this study were to (1) determine psychological states and wellbeing of living kidney donors and (2) assess their interaction and association with subjective evaluations of donors. This retrospective, cross-sectional ... -
Novel Application of Internal-External Drainage Catheter as Biliary Stent for Percutaneous Transhepatic Treatment of Biliary Strictures in Living Donor Liver Transplantation Recipient Patients
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Objectives: Although endoscopic management is considered as the first-line treatment for biliary strictures, it may be challenging in living donor liver transplant recipients due to the complex nature of duct-to-duct ... -
Outcome of Desensitization Therapy in Immunologically High-Risk Kidney Transplantation: Single-Center Experience
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Aim: Sensitization to HLA antigens creates an immunologic barrier, linked to an increased risk of antibody-mediated rejection and poorer graft survival, that remains a persistent and often impenetrable deterrent to ... -
Role of Preoperative Viral Load and Presence of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in the Biliary Complications After Liver Transplantation Due to Hepatitis C Virus
(Elsevier USA, 2019)Background: Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a global health problem, and the need for liver transplants is ever-growing. For optimal surgical success, risk factors must be identified and HCV viral load must ... -
