Abstract: The Abdominal pregnancy is defined as the establishment and development of the egg, fertilized partially or entirely in the abdominal cavity, in a primary or generally secondary way. This is a rare event in the evolution of pregnancy since it accounts for only 1% of the ectopic ovular locations. The goal is to present its pathophysiological and clinical aspects, the complications and the principles taken into account in order to think of evoking this experience so as not to discover it during a very serious complication or per operating. We reported a case of evolutionary abdominal pregnancy diagnosed to 18 SA in 22 years old patient without particular pathological antecedents. The echography and the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) confirmed the diagnosis. The processing was surgical and the post operative consequences were simple.

Abstract: Bladder tumors are biologically and chemically hazardous tumors that still remains as high morbidity and mortality rates even though the improvements of diagnosis and treatment in clinical field. Ureteral tumors constitutes about 90% of all bladder tumors and their biological behaviour vary from benign lesions to agressive cancers. In our study 66 diagnosed bladder biopsy and transureteral resection material were analysed retrospectively through the database of pathology department of Iskenderun State Hospital between january 2011 and November 2013.When only the bladder tumor cases were examined, 26 (59.65%) male and 3 (10.35%) female patients were detected. The age average of these tumor cases was 63.86±14.84 and ages were varied from 28-84. The 29 patients of tumor cases were consisted of 1 (1.52%) carcinoma in situ, 2 methastathic cancers, 1 papilloma, 2 low malignity potential papillary neoplasia, 14 low grade papillary carcinoma and 9 high grade papillary carcinoma. We observed that urothelial papilloma and low malignant potential papillary carcinoma has low rates and the percentage of low grade papillary carcinoma has high rates according to smilar studies. Unlikely the other studies, we found that the high grade papillary ureteral carcinoma can seen in further ages than low grade papillary ureteral carcinoma.In the light of our study, we recommend to keep in mind that malignant tumors of ureterium can be seen in all age groups and gender.

Abstract: Aims: In this study we aimed to assess sociodemographic characteristics of cases over 15 years of age who admitted to emergency department (ED) after a suicide attempt and determine the risk factors for suicide. Methods: This study was conducted retrospectively between 01.01.2013 – 31.12.2013 at the Emergency Department of Keçiören Training and Research Hospital. Age, sex, marital status, educational status, suicide cause and method, interventions applied in emergency department, history of suicide attempts, history of psychiayric diseases, time of suicide attempt, and admission time to emergency department were examined. Categorical variables were analysed using Chi-Square test. A p value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: This study included data of 561 patients. The patients were most commonly 15 to 24 years old (46.3%) and 419 (74.7%) of them were female. Three hundred (53.5%) patients were single, 271 (48.3%) were primary school graduate, and 111 (%19.8) were active workers. The most common suicide cause was familial problems (49.9%). The most common suicide method was consuming medications in large amount (92.5%) and the most common intervention applied in emergency department was gastric lavage (26.6%). Twenty-seven (4.8%) patients had a history of suicide attempts, 371 (66.1%) patients had a previously diagnosed psychiatric illness. The highest number of attempts occurred in July (11.1%) and majority of them occurred between 18:00 and 24:00. The mean time from suicide attempt to ED admission was 2.5 hours. Conclusion: Although it is probably not possible to completely eliminate all suicide attempts, it is well possible to decrease the number of suicide attempts by reducing the number of possible risk factors for suicide

Abstract: Introduction: The gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is defined as a chronic affection resulting from the reflux of part of the gastric content (and sometimes, gastroduodenal) to the esophagus and/or adjacent organs (pharynx, larynx, bronchia), causing a variable spectrum of esophageal and/or extra-esophageal signs and symptoms associated or not to tissue lesions. Object: To determine the prevalence of ORL’ disorders in patients with gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD). Nowadays the number of patients with such complaints increases, which could be a result of higher acidity, inappropriate eating and lifestyle. Material and Methods: We carried out a retrospective study by approaching records of 54 patients attended in a period of 18 months. For all patients were made: standard ORL’ examination; examinations of gastro-digestive tract: upper endoscopy (Patients with erosive esophagitis were classified according to the criteria of Los Angeles), X- Ray of esophagus and stomach; Ph test; The results were evaluated in the SPSS program, version 10.0, and we carried out frequencies evaluation, central tendency and standard deviation measurements and association test (chi-square). Results: Patients with typical symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease accounted for 48 (88%) .Twenty seven had changes consistent with class A (50%), class B with 17 (31.5%) and 10 with classes C + D (18.5%). The presence of laryngeal changes were more prevalent in more severe esophagitis (grades C and D Los Angeles) when compared to milder forms (classes A and B), a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). Conclusion: As a first level of gastro-digestive tract, the oral cavity can attack with hirer PH of stomach’ contents. Following these circumstances they are possible changes and lesions in the mucosa of oral cavity and the pharynx wall, the tongue root and teeth. The laryngeal disorders are frequent findings in patients with GERD, more frequent the greater the degree of esophageal injury.
