Göğüs Cerrahisi Nedir? Göğüs Hastalıkları Nelerdir? Aşırı Terleme Nedir? Akciğer Kanseri, Akciğer Enfeksiyonları, Plevra (Akciğer Zarı) Hastalıkları, Trakea (Hava Yolu) Hastalıkları, Pektus Ekskavatum (Kunduracı Göğüs) Rahatsızlıkları, Özofagus (Yemek Borusu) Hastalıkları, Endoskopik İşlemler, Mediasten Hastalıkları, Toraks Duvarı Hastalıkları ile ilgili merak edilenler Home SAYFA BAŞI What is Thoracic Surgery? What are Chest Diseases? What is Excessive Sweating? Sıkça Sorulan Sorular Lung Cancer Sweating Disorders Causes of Lung Cancer The primary cause of lung cancer is smoking. Asbestos can contribute to cancer development due to its long-term irritation of the respiratory tract. In addition to radon, an odorless radioactive gas found in homes, exposure to chemicals such as arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, and vinyl chloride, as well as tuberculosis (TB), can increase the risk of lung cancer. Genetic predisposition, air pollution, and individuals who have previously undergone radiotherapy can also develop lung cancer. Furthermore, having had lung cancer in the past is a risk factor for developing it again. Additionally, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and dietary habits, believed to have an effect on all types of cancer, can also predispose to lung cancer. Risky occupations for lung cancer include mining, shipyard work, painting, foundry work, chimney sweeping, working in petrochemical industries, glass and ceramic manufacturing, and battery manufacturing. Akciğer Kanserinin Tedavisi Akciğer kanserinde tedavi, hastanın tespit edildiği evresi ve tespit edilen akciğer kanseri hücre tipine göre değişmektedir. Cerrahi, ilaç (kemoterapi), ışın (radyoterapi) ve diğer destek tedavileri tek başına veya bir arada uygulanabilir. Hastalığın evresi ve hücre tipini belirledikten sonra, hastanın yaşı ve performans durumu da göz önünde tutularak tedavisi planlanır. Cerrahi tedavi erken dönem akciğer kanserlerinde esas tedavi yöntemidir. Cerrahi tedavide başarı, hastaların iyi seçimine, evrelemenin iyi yapılmasına bağlı olup, ayrıca hastaların fizyolojik durumları, performansları, solunumsal ve kalp fonksiyonlarının ameliyat öncesi değerlendirilmesi de önemlidir. Cerrahi tedavi ile uygun hastalarda akciğerin bir kısmı veya bir akciğerin tamamı alınabilmektedir. Teşhis ve tedavide geç kalmamak önemlidir. Kanserde erken tanı, tedavi şansını artırır, tedaviyi kolaylaştırır, doku ve organ kaybını azaltır veya önler, tedavi giderlerini azaltır ve hayat kurtarır. Akciğer kanseri en sık görülen kanser türüdür ancak önlenebilir bir kanserdir. Lung Cancer Symptoms in Men Lung cancer symptoms and risk factors are similar in both women and men, but the rates differ. According to the 2020 World Cancer Statistics, lung cancer continues to be the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in both women and men; 18% of all cancer-related deaths are due to lung cancer.Unhealthy diet.Smoking and exposure to tobacco smoke are the most significant risk factors for lung cancer.Genetic and hormonal differences between women and men.A 2014 study published in the Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgical Seminars suggested that certain genes and hormones increase the mortality rate from lung cancer in women.Genetics.Researchers have identified several genes that could explain the differences in lung cancer rates between women and men. Some of these genes are inherited, while others are activated by exposure to tobacco.KRAS:Any mutation in the KRAS gene can cause cancerous tumors to grow faster. A mutation in this gene can also increase the likelihood of tumors metastasizing (spreading). The review showed that KRAS mutations, in combination with exposure to estrogen, a female sex hormone, can make lung cancer grow more aggressively.The review links Gastrin-Releasing Peptide Receptor (GRPR) activity to cancer cell growth. This receptor is more active in women, and exposure to estrogen can amplify its effects.EGFR:Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is a protein often found in individuals with lung cancer. Mutations in the gene that produces EGFR are significantly more common in women compared to men.HER2, which is part of the EGFR gene group, is found in most adenocarcinoma cases. HER2 is associated with poorer survival rates in women with lung cancer.Hormonal Differences: EstrogenThe age of menopause is a factor.Researchers have found estrogen receptors on lung cancer cells derived from both men and women. The same 2014 study on genes and hormones in lung cancer development showed that estrogen stimulates the growth of tumor cells. Additionally, the study proved that therapies blocking estrogen have cancer-suppressive effects. What are the Stages of Lung Cancer? Like all cancers, it has four stages. New staging is being done every day based on the information gathered. The latest staging has reached stage 8. Staging depends on the tumor's size, whether there is metastasis in the lymph nodes and distant organs.Stage 1: The cancer is confined to the lung. In other words, it has not spread to the lymph nodes, and the tumor size is smaller than 2-3 cm.Stage 2: Although the cancer has not spread to the lymph nodes, it is close to the diaphragm or the chest wall, which separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity. The tumor size ranges from 3 to 5 cm. If the tumor is smaller than 5 cm but has spread to nearby lymph nodes or bronchi, it is also considered stage 2 lung cancer.Stage 3/A: Cancer cells have spread to the lymph nodes between the lungs or are near the trachea. In addition, cases where the cancer has not spread to the lymph nodes but has spread to organs such as the heart and trachea are also included in stage 3/A.Stage 3-A: The tumor is in the range of 5-7 cm. Cancer cells have spread to the lymph nodes between the lungs or are near the trachea. Additionally, cases where the cancer has not spread to the lymph nodes but has spread to organs such as the heart and trachea are included in stage 3/A.Stage 3-B: The cancer is near the lymph nodes in the middle of the chest, or near the heart or the area where the trachea divides.Stage 4: The tumor is larger than 7 cm and may be present in both lungs. It may have spread to the fluid surrounding the lungs and heart or metastasized to other parts of the body, such as the brain, bones, and other organs. Lung Mass Solid Nodule Nodül; etrafı havalı akciğer dokusu ile çevrili, sayıca tek, çapı 3 cm’den küçük, sınırları belirgin, genelde yuvarlak, beraberce lenf bezi büyümesi ve ya sıvı gibi durumların eşlik etmediği, akciğer içinde yerleşmiş lezyondur. Akciğerde görülen nodülün iyi veya kötü huylu olduğunun ayırt edilmesinde kullanılan. özellikler nodül boyutu, kenarı, kalsifikasyon varlığı, dansite özellikleri ve büyümesidir. Akciğer kanserine bağlı gelişen nodüllerin çapı genellikle 3 cm’den. büyüktür. Daha önceki tomografik değerlendirmesine kıyasla boyutunda %25’den fazla artış olan nodüller de genellikle kanser riski açısından değerlendirilir. Nodülün cidarının düzensiz olması kanser riskini yaklaşık 5 kat arttırırken, nodül içinde kalsifikasyon (kireç birikimi) iyi huylu olma olasılığını arttırır. Solid nodüller, yani içi kistik veya sıvı ile dolu olmayan nodüller, kanser açısından yüksek risklidir. Akciğerde kitle dendiğinde genellikle solid nodülden bahsedilir. First Symptoms of Lung Cancer Increasing Cough: Coughing, one of the initial symptoms of lung cancer, is often not taken seriously as it is usually attributed to other causes. However, a persistent cough that lasts for more than two weeks, gradually increases, and has no identifiable cause, is a primary indicator of lung cancer. Additionally, the presence of blood in sputum or the color of the sputum being dark brown is also recognized as important symptoms of lung cancer.When can a cough be a symptom of lung cancer?Chest Pain: Chest pain, which can stem from many different causes, is actually one of the primary symptoms of lung cancer. If chest pain worsens with deep breaths, coughing, or laughing, it is crucial to consult a doctor without delay.Shortness of Breath: Respiratory symptoms, such as shortness of breath and wheezing, can appear in all stages of lung cancer. Lung Cancer Symptoms in Women Lung cancer symptoms and risk factors are similar between women and men, but the rates differ. According to the 2020 World Cancer Statistics, lung cancer continues to be the leading cause of death in both women and men; 18% of all cancer-related deaths are caused by lung cancer.Risk factors for lung cancer in women and men:Unhealthy diet: Smoking and exposure to tobacco smoke are the most significant risk factors for lung cancer.Genetic and hormonal differences between women and men: A 2014 study published in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgical Seminars suggests that certain genes and hormones increase the mortality rate from lung cancer in women.Genetics: Researchers have identified several genes that may explain the differences in lung cancer rates between women and men.

Researchers have found estrogen receptors on lung cancer cells obtained from both women and men. The same 2014 study on genes and hormones in lung cancer development demonstrated that estrogen promotes the growth of tumor cells. The study also proved that treatments aimed at blocking estrogen have cancer-suppressing effects. Akciğer Kanserinin İlk Belirtileri Giderek Artan Öksürük. Akciğer kanserinin ilk belirtileri arasında yer alan öksürük, çoğunlukla başka nedenlere bağlı olduğu düşünülerek yeterince önemsenmiyor. Oysa iki haftadan uzun süren, giderek artan ve nedeni belirlenemeyen inatçı öksürük, akciğer kanserinin temel göstergesi olarak karşımıza çıkıyor. Bunun yanı balgamda kan görülmesi veya balgam renginin koyu kahverengi olması da akciğer kanserinde önemli belirtiler olarak biliniyor. Öksürük hangi durumlarda akciğer kanseri belirtisi olabilir? Göğüs Ağrısı. Yine pek çok nedenden kaynaklanabilen göğüs ağrısı da, aslında akciğer kanserinin temel belirtileri arasında yer alıyor. Göğüs ağrısı derin nefes alırken, öksürürken veya gülerken artıyorsa zaman kaybetmeden doktora başvurmak gerekiyor. Nefes Darlığı. Nefes darlığı ve hırıltılı soluma gibi solunumsal belirtiler akciğer kanserinin tüm evrelerinde ortaya çıkabiliyor. Lung Cancer Symptoms in Men Lung cancer symptoms and risk factors are similar between women and men, though the rates differ.

Lung Cancer Malignant Tumor Akciğerde yer alan hücrelerin dengesiz bir şekilde çoğalması sonucu meydana gelen kötü huylu tümöral oluşumlara akciğer kanseri adı verilir. Akciğerin kötü huylu tümörleri küçük hücreli ve küçük hücreli olmayan ( small ve non-smallcell ) tümörleri olarak ikiye ayrılır. Küçük hücreli olmayan tümörleri de kabaca adenokarsinom ve yassı hücreli karsinom olarak ikiye ayrılır.

Additionally, the presence of blood in sputum or the sputum being dark brown in color are also recognized as significant symptoms of lung cancer.When can a cough be a sign of lung cancer?Chest Pain: Chest pain, which can be caused by various factors, is actually one of the primary symptoms of lung cancer. If chest pain increases with deep breathing, coughing, or laughing, it is essential to consult a doctor without delay.Shortness of Breath: Respiratory symptoms such as shortness of breath and wheezing can occur at all stages of lung cancer. Lung Cancer Benign Tumor Benign tumors do not grow rapidly or metastasize like malignant tumors. They are often discovered incidentally. However, depending on their location, they may cause symptoms such as cough, chest pain, back pain, and dyspnea. Benign lung tumors also need to be removed. Akciğer Kanserinin Nedenleri Akciğer kanserine yol açan etkenlerin başında sigara kullanımı gelir. Asbest, solunum yollarında uzun süreli tahrişe neden olduğundan kanser gelişiminde rol oynayabilir. Evlerde bulunan kokusuz radyoaktif gaz olan radonun yanı sıra arsenik, berilyum, kadmiyum, vinil klorür gibi kimyasalların solunması ve tüberküloz, (verem) akciğer kanseri görülme riskini arttırır. Genetik yatkınlık, hava kirliliği ve önceden radyoterapi alan kişilerde de akciğer kanseri görülebilir. Tüm bunların yanı sıra akciğer kanseri geçirmiş olmak da tekrar akciğer kanserine yakalanma ihtimalini arttıran etkenler arasında sayılabilir. Akciğer kanseri için riskli mesleklerden bazıları madencilik, tersane işçiliği, boyacılık, döküm işçiliği, baca temizleyiciliği, petrokimya işlerinde çalışmak, cam seramik işi yapmak ve batarya işçileri şeklinde sıralanabilir. Lung Disease Symptoms The main symptoms of lung diseases include dyspnea (Hemoptysis ), cough, wheezing, hemoptysis (coughing up blood), chest pain, and excessive, dark sputum production. In addition to these, symptoms such as fever, loss of appetite, weight loss, and depending on the location of the tumor, hoarseness, Horner's syndrome, hiccups, diaphragmatic elevation, arrhythmias, dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), and swelling in the neck and face may also occur. Lung Cancer Symptoms Cough is one of the early symptoms of lung cancer, yet it is often overlooked as it is commonly attributed to other causes. However, a persistent, progressively worsening cough lasting more than two weeks without an identifiable cause is considered a significant indicator of lung cancer. Additionally, the presence of hemoptysis (blood in sputum) or dark brown sputum is also recognized as an important sign of lung malignancy.Although chest pain can result from various causes, it is also one of the key symptoms of lung cancer. If the pain worsens with deep breathing, coughing, or laughing, it is essential to seek medical attention without delay.Respiratory symptoms such as dyspnea (shortness of breath) and wheezing can manifest in all stages of lung cancer. Lung Cancer Symptoms Back Pain The cause of back pain in lung cancer is due to the cancerous growth affecting the chest wall, which involves the bones, nerves, muscles, and vessels in the area. Akciğer Kanseri Belirtileri Nelerdir Giderek Artan Öksürük. Akciğer kanserinin ilk belirtileri arasında yer alan öksürük, çoğunlukla başka nedenlere bağlı olduğu düşünülerek yeterince önemsenmiyor. Oysa iki haftadan uzun süren, giderek artan ve nedeni belirlenemeyen inatçı öksürük, akciğer kanserinin temel göstergesi olarak karşımıza çıkıyor. Bunun yanı balgamda kan görülmesi veya balgam renginin koyu kahverengi olması da akciğer kanserinde önemli belirtiler olarak biliniyor. Öksürük hangi durumlarda akciğer kanseri belirtisi olabilir? Göğüs Ağrısı. Yine pek çok nedenden kaynaklanabilen göğüs ağrısı da, aslında akciğer kanserinin temel belirtileri arasında yer alıyor. Göğüs ağrısı derin nefes alırken, öksürürken veya gülerken artıyorsa zaman kaybetmeden doktora başvurmak gerekiyor. Nefes Darlığı. Nefes darlığı ve hırıltılı soluma gibi solunumsal belirtiler akciğer kanserinin tüm evrelerinde ortaya çıkabiliyor. Lung Cancer Treatment Lung cancer treatment varies depending on the stage of the disease and the type of lung cancer cells identified. Surgical, pharmacological (chemotherapy), radiation (radiotherapy), and other supportive treatments may be applied alone or in combination. After determining the stage and cell type of the cancer, the patient's age and performance status are also taken into account when planning treatment. Surgical treatment is the primary method for early-stage lung cancer. Success in surgical treatment depends on the careful selection of patients and proper staging, as well as the preoperative evaluation of the patient's physiological condition, performance, respiratory, and cardiac function. In suitable patients, part or the entire lung can be removed through surgical treatment.Timely diagnosis and treatment are crucial. Early diagnosis in cancer increases the chances of treatment, makes treatment easier, reduces or prevents tissue and organ loss, reduces treatment costs, and saves lives. Lung cancer is the most common type of cancer, but it is a preventable one. Akciğer Kanseri İyi Huylu Tümör İyi huylu tümörler, bulundukları yere ve neden oldukları semptomlara bağlı olarak tedavi edilmeli.Akciğere baskı yaparak hastanın nefes almasını engelleyen iyi huylu tümörler de tedavi edilmelidir. Lung Mass Treatment When a mass is detected in the lung, it is essential to first determine whether the mass is benign or malignant. This determination is made today through PET CT and biopsy methods. In the case of a benign tumor, simply removing the mass is sufficient. For malignant lung cancer, in patients with an appropriate stage, anatomic resection and lymph node dissection should be performed. Akciğer Kanseri Evreleri Nelerdir? 1nci Evre: Kanser akciğer içindedir. Farklı bir deyişle lenf düğümlerine yayılmamıştır ve kitle boyutu 5 cm’den küçüktür. 2nci Evre: Kanser lenf bezlerine yayılmasa da göğüs boşluğu ile karın boşluğunu ayıran diyaframa ya da göğüs kafesine yakındır. Kitle boyutu 5 ila 7 cm. aralığındadır. Tümörün 7 cm’den küçük olduğu fakat kanserin lenf düğümlerinin ya da bronşların yakınına yayılmış olması da evre iki akciğer kanseri olarak değerlendirilir. Evre 3/A: Kanser hücreleri, akciğerlerin arasındaki lenf düğümlerine yayılmış ya da soluk borusuna yakındır. Ayrıca lenf düğümlerine yayılmamış fakat kalp ve soluk borusu gibi organlara yayılmış vakalar da evre 3/A kapsamında değerlendirilir. 3ncü Evre 3- A: Kanser hücreleri, akciğerlerin arasındaki lenf düğümlerine yayılmış ya da soluk borusuna yakındır. Ayrıca lenf düğümlerine yayılmamış fakat kalp ve soluk borusu gibi organlara yayılmış vakalar da evre 3/A kapsamında değerlendirilir. 3ncü Evre 3 - B: Kanser, göğsün orta hattında bulunan lenf düğümlerine, kalbe ya da soluk borusunun ikiye ayrıldığı bölgeye yakındır. 4ncü Evre: Kanser her iki akciğerde de bulunur. Akciğerleri ve kalbi saran sıvıda ya da beyin, kemik gibi vücudun diğer bölgelerine sıçramıştır. ANASAYFA

- Yüz Terlemesi Tedavisi | Prof. Dr. Serdar Han
Aşırı yüz terlemesi sık görülen bir rahatsızlıktır. Hemen hemen her yerde karşımıza boncuk boncuk terleyen insanların çıkması mümkündür. Bu terlemeler o kadar fazla olmaktadır ki boyunları, sırtları, omuzları ve giydiği gömlek ve kazak yakası sırılsıklam olmaktadır. Aşırı yüz terlemesi için alternatif tedavi yöntemleri yok gibidir. Aşırı yüz terlemelerinde en uygun tedavi yöntemi Klipsli ETS ile yapılan sempatektomi işlemi sonrasında genel olarak yüz terlemesi kalıcı olarak geçmektedir. Face Sweating What is Excessive Facial Sweating? What are the Causes? excessive facial sweating It is a common ailment. Almost everywhere , it is possible to see people sweating beads. These sweats are so much that their necks, backs, shoulders and the shirt and sweater collar they wear are soaked . Those with excessive facial sweating may also experience excessive sweating in the hairy area. In general, there may be excessive sweating on the face alone. Excessive sweating in the hand, under the armpit excessive sweating, excessive sweating on the feet or widespread excessive sweating in the whole body. Excessive sweating on the face makes the person very uncomfortable. Special in business they are in a lot of trouble. On the other hand, they are perceived as shy, embarrassed and stressed. It is not possible to hide the excessive sweating on the face like the excessive sweating in the other regions. However, excessive sweating on the face and head Sinusitis and headache are common in patients with Excessive facial sweating it is made difficult by the person who sweats. The person who sweats excessively He thinks that he cannot express himself and that he is misunderstood because he sweats excessively. This prevents the person from revealing the current capacity. Along with excessive facial sweating, some may also experience excessive facial flushing. Both are the result of excessive sympathetic activity. There seems to be no alternative treatment methods for excessive facial sweating. The most appropriate treatment method for excessive facial sweating is sympathectomy with clip-on ETS. After the sympathectomy with the clip-on ETS , facial sweating disappears almost completely. If there is excessive facial sweating and excessive facial flushing, this also goes away after the sympathectomy with clip-on ETS. With the clip-on ETS , the sympathectomy procedure is performed in approximately 30 minutes. Patients come to their beds an hour later. They are discharged on the same day. After the excessive facial sweating after sympathectomy with clip-on ETS, there may be an increase in the amount of sweating elsewhere in the body. It was determined that the reflex sweating rate after sympathectomy in excessive facial sweating was higher than after the excessive sweating operation in other regions. Reflex sweating is more likely to come out of areas such as chest, back, abdomen, hips, if there is a sweating area on the body before. In the current sweating in these areas, it is possible to increase the amount that is cut in excessive facial sweating. Most of these reflex sweatings decrease 3-4 months after the sympathectomy with clip-on ETS. However, the same amount of sweating can continue even in a small part of it. In this case, additional support sweating treatment methods are given. Contact us
- Refleks Terleme Nedir? | Prof. Dr. Serdar Han
Refleks terleme, bir yerdeki terleme kesildikten sonra başka yerin terlemesidir. Bu vücudumuzun fizyolojik bir yanıtıdır. Videotorakoskopik sempatektomi yapılan aşırı el, yüz ve koltukaltı terlemesi olanlarda görülen bir durumdur. Aşırı terlemesi olanlarda bölgesel noktaları kontrol altına alabiliyoruz ama bütün bedeni kontrol edemiyoruz. Aşırı terleyen kişiler zaten yapıları ve psikolojik durumları nedeniyle her zaman normal terleyenlere göre hayatları boyunca fazla terleyeceklerdir. Reflex Sweating What is Reflex Sweating? Why Does It Happen? Reflex sweating is the sweating of another place after sweating in one place has stopped. This is a physiological response of our body. It is a condition seen in patients with excessive hand, face and armpit sweating who underwent videothoracoscopic sympathectomy. We can control the regional points in those with excessive sweating, but we cannot control the whole body. People who sweat excessively will always sweat more than normal sweaters throughout their lives due to their structure and psychological state. Sweating patients should know this well. For this reason, with sympathectomy performed in excessive hand, armpit and facial sweating, these sweating will pass, but sweating in other places will continue. In fact, the sweats in the cut areas can be added to the sweats of other regions. If there is no sweating elsewhere, there may be new sweating areas. Reflex sweating starts in most of our patients after the operation. It is impossible for us to know for whom, how long, where and when it will last. We don't have tests or other helpers to discover this ahead of time. Reflex sweating is a condition that can vary according to each individual. However, it has been reported that reflex sweating is less in those who have performed the sympathectomy at a single level or in the sympathectomies performed for hand sweating. If the sympathectomy is performed at multiple levels or if it is a sympathectomy for facial sweating, reflex sweating may be slightly more. In addition, if a patient has sweating on the face, hands, armpits and feet and all of them have been treated with sympathectomy, reflex sweating is observed excessively. Or, if the patient already has excessive sweating on his chest, back, abdomen or legs in addition to regional sweating, the sweating in these areas will increase. These are conditions that should be well known and accepted by the patient. Recycling is even lower than mentioned. The patient should be clear and determined in the light of all this information in sweating surgery. This situation requires the patient not to regret. Contact us

Lung Infections Requiring Surgical Treatment What is Lung Infection? As a result of the widespread use of advanced antibiotics according to culture results, the need for surgery has decreased a lot in lung infections. However, there is still a patient group that requires surgical treatment to get satisfactory results. It is necessary to detect lung infections well in the early period and prevent unnecessary drug treatment. What Are Lung Infections? What is Bronchiectasis? Bronchiectasis is the irreversible deterioration of the structure of the small airways. With this deterioration, patients often experience lung infections. During these diseases, they produce plenty of phlegm. Bleeding can be seen in the following periods. There are many reasons that can cause bronchiectasis. Care should be taken in presenting them. These patients go to chest diseases more frequently. Complaints are tried to be resolved with antibiotic treatments. However, some patients are suitable for surgical treatment. If surgical treatment can be applied to them at the appropriate time, patients can definitely get rid of unnecessarily long treatments and abundant sputum at once. For this reason, it will be in favor of the patients that these patients should be examined by thoracic surgeons. Not all patients are suitable for surgery. Certain criteria for us to perform surgery. Localized cystic bronchiectasis in a certain area is normal in other areas. What is Lung Abscess? Lung abscess is a pathological formation characterized by necrosis and suppuration and limited to fibrous tissue reaction, which occurs as a result of various etiological reasons and pathological processes in the lung parenchyma. Today, it is one of the diseases that can be easily solved with drug treatments. If complications due to lung abscess develop, then thoracic surgery may come into play. Recently, medical treatment alone is sufficient. What is Hydatid Cyst? Hydatid cyst is a parasitic disease. It is popularly known as cat-dog disease. It is generally seen in those who live in a farm environment in rural areas or those who have cats and dogs at home. In order to prevent all these, the most important preventive action to be taken is that the parasitic organs of the sick victims should not be given to cats and dogs and they should be buried in the deepest places. Hydatid cyst loves the liver the most. Then the lung is the most common place. There is no organ where the hydatid cyst does not settle, they can be seen everywhere. It continues to grow by reproducing where it is settled. It can reach the size of a huge balloon. They are detected incidentally or when they cannot fit and give symptoms after they grow. When detected in the lung, the only treatment for now is the surgical approach. If we only use medicine, the cyst will die, but the residue will remain inside. This will lead to problems that can be seen later in the lung. Of course, this body will have to be removed as well. Therefore, if a hydatid cyst is detected in the lung, it should be seen by a thoracic surgeon. After the surgery, preventive drug treatments are usually given so that new cysts do not appear. Contact us Lung Infections Short Facts What Causes Lung Infection? In lung infection, the virus or bacteria settles in the lung and progresses here. It is among the most common diseases in the winter months. The rate of transmission of the disease is also very high. It is transmitted to the people around by coughing. If the microbe that causes this disease is suspended in the air for a certain period of time, it increases the rate of transmission. In addition, those who come into contact with microbes that have descended to the surface can catch the disease. What Are the Symptoms of Lung Infection? There are some symptoms that occur with a lung infection. These symptoms are: ● high fever ● Sweating and weakness ● Persistent cough ● Difficulty in breathing ● expectoration ● Chest pain caused by coughing ● Change in heart rhythm ● Anorexia ● Joint pain in the body Lung Infection Treatment For the diagnosis of lung infection, the symptoms in the patient's history are taken into account. If infection is suspected, triggers such as chest X-ray and computed tomography can be applied. A treatment method is determined according to the factors causing the infection. Antibiotics and antiviral drugs can be used. When excessive fluid loss occurs, fluid supplementation with serum is applied. Oxygen support can be given in emergencies.
- Koltuk Altı Terlemesi | Prof. Dr. Serdar Han
Koltuk altı terlemesi toplumda sık görülen ve rahatsız eden terlemelerdir. Çok çeşitli şekilde görülen aşırı koltuk altı terlemeleri vardır. Sadece koltuk altı seviyesinde, aşırı koltuk altı terlemesi olmakla beraber, hastanın beline kadar inebilen hatta koltuk altından eline doğru akarak elden çıkan aşırı koltuk altı terlemeleri vardır. Aşırı koltuk altı terlemelerinde klipsli ETS ile sempatektomi işlemi başarı ile uygulanmaktadır. Underarm Excessive Sweating Excessive Underarm Sweating and Causes? Excessive armpit sweating is common and disturbing sweating in the society. There are many forms of excessive underarm sweating. Only at armpit level Although there is excessive armpit sweating, there is excessive armpit sweating that can go down to the waist of the patient and even flow from the armpit to the hand. This excessive armpit sweating is so much that it goes up to the dress and the jacket worn on it. This makes people very uncomfortable in appearance. Most of our patients choose clothes because of this excessive armpit sweating. They can't wear every outfit. Excessive underarm sweating is often not stinky. They are clear and flowing like water. In a minority, these excessive armpit sweats can be fragrant. One of the biggest problems in those with excessive underarm sweating can be the irritation of the armpit due to excessive sweating and the inflammation that develops in the armpit hair over time. Excessive armpit sweating is usually the only sweating places. However, excessive sweating is also seen in other places. Excessive hand sweating , excessive facial sweating or excessive foot sweating . Women suffer more from excessive underarm sweating. They both do not look good and cannot wear the clothes they want. There is a wide variety of treatment methods available in the treatment of excessive armpits. A wide variety of sprays and solutions have been developed for excessive underarm sweating. It has been observed to be beneficial for some patients. However, they are not very useful in excessive underarm sweating in the form of dripping. Botox applications have been shown to be beneficial in excessive armpit sweating with this type of sweating. Botox applications should be done with an interval of at most 6 months in excessive armpit sweating. These applications should be repeated in the treatment of excessive sweating. It becomes difficult to be applied by many patients due to the cost and repetition of life-long repetitions. Sympathectomy with clip-on ETS is successfully performed in excessive armpit sweating. With the clip-on ETS, the sympathectomy procedure is performed in as little as 30 minutes. It takes 1 hour for the patient to come to the bed after the procedure. The patient can be discharged after the effect of anesthesia is over. After the sympathectomy with clip-on ETS, patients have stinging pain in the front of the chest or in the back in the early period of the surgery. Sometimes these pains are accompanied by difficulty in breathing. All these complaints are significantly reduced a few hours after the sympathectomy with clip-on ETS. In some patients, the pain that continues for a few days to a few weeks after discharge is in the form of stinging. These pains, which occur after sympathectomy with clip-on ETS, do not interfere with the patient's movement or work. A permanent reduction of 70-80% in axillary sweating is achieved with the clip-on ETS and sympathectomy procedure in excessive armpit sweating. Compared to excessive sweating seen in other regions, the response rate of underarm excessive sweating to sympathectomy performed with clip-on ETS is slightly lower. The reason for this has been shown to be the presence of two types of sweat glands in the armpit and the stimulation of the nerves that operate the armpit sweat glands from many places. Different responses can be obtained in the right and left armpits after the sympathectomy with clip-on ETS applied to some patients with excessive underarm sweating. These differences are probably due to the different sympathetic chain networks. We recommend that patients with only excessive underarm sweating, who will undergo sympathectomy with clip-on ETS, have botox application first. As a result, if desired, a sympathectomy with clip-on ETS is performed. Sympathectomy with clip-on ETS in patients with excessive underarm sweating provides close to 100% dryness in most patients. Reflex sweating is also a condition that should be known in these patients. If unwanted amounts of sweating occur in the armpit after sympathectomy with the clip-on ETS, supportive sweating treatment is given. Contact us

Aşırı terlemelerde ameliyat günümüzde rahat bir şekilde yüz güldürücü sonuçlarla yapılabilmektedir. Cerrahi tedavi halk arasında kapalı ameliyat dediğimiz yöntemle yapılmaktadır. Aşırı terlemerede cerrahi çözüm, ameliyathane şartlarında ve genel anestezi altında yapılmaktadır. Hastanın tamamen uyutulması hem hasta hem cerrah için gerekli bir şeydir. Aşırı Terlemek Akciğere bağlı hastalıklara işaret edebilir. Bir Hekime görünülmesi erken teşhis için faydalı olabilir. Surgical Treatment of Excessive Sweating Surgery for excessive sweating can be performed comfortably today with satisfactory results. Surgical treatment is performed by the method we call closed surgery among the people. This method is performed under operating room conditions and under general anesthesia. It is necessary for both the patient and the surgeon to put the patient to sleep completely. Patients do not feel anything during the procedure. When they wake up they are in their beds. The most important feature of closed surgery is the presence of small wounds. These wounds generally range from 0.5 cm to 1 cm. There is no lung-related procedure in the surgery. When the sympathetic chain is visible, the level at which the clip will be placed is determined. As soon as it is detected, a clip is placed in a short time like 5-10 minutes and the process is terminated there. Then the same action is done to the other side. In total, the duration of the operation is 30 minutes. It takes about 30 minutes before and after anesthesia. In a total of 1 hour, the patient will be in bed. Food is given 4 hours after the operation. The patient, who is then aroused, is discharged on the same evening if his general condition is suitable. There is no need for re-dressing. They can take a bath after a day. No stitches are removed as the aesthetic is sewn. It is the pain felt in the anterior chest wall or back that should be known after the operation. This pain complaint differs from person to person. But all of them have pain that decreases over time. The patient who has the complaint of sweating does not even feel the pain. Contact us
- Toraks Duvarı Hastalıkları | Prof. Dr. Serdar Han
Toraks duvarı, kemik ve kaslardan oluşan kalp ve akciğerimizi koruyan , nefes alıp vermemizi sağlayan yapılardır. Kemik yapısını kaburgalar ve sternum (iman tahtası) oluşturmaktadır. Pektus Ekskavatum Nedir, Pektus Karinatum Nedir, Kot Tümörü Nedir, Kaburga Kırıkları Nedir, Sternum Hastalıkları Nelerdir. Özellikle kunduracı ve güvercin göğsü son zamanlarda uygun vakalarda ameliyatsız yöntemle (vakum bell) tedavi edilebilmektedir. What is Thoracic Wall? What are Thorax Wall Diseases? The thoracic wall is the structures that protect our heart and lungs, consisting of bones and muscles, and allow us to breathe. The ribs and sternum (board of faith) form the bone structure. Congenital anomalies of the thoracic wall (shoemaker's chest, pigeon's chest), benign tumors (chondroma, lipoma, osteoma, etc.), malignant tumors (chondrosarcoma, osteosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, etc.). These diseases can be treated surgically. Especially shoemaker and pigeon chest can be treated with non-surgical method (vacuum bell) in suitable cases recently. Thoracic Wall Disorders; What is Pectus Excavatum ( Shoemaker Chest )? What is Pectus Carinatum ( Pigeon Breast )? What is a Jeans Tumor? What Are Rib Fractures? What are Sternum Diseases? Contact us Thorax Wall Diseases Short Facts What is Pectus Carinatum? Pigeon Breast Pigeon Breast (Pectus Carinatum) Pigeon chest refers to the outward protrusion of the sinew and ribs. It is a form of deformity that is the opposite of the shoemaker's chest. It occurs with the deterioration of the cartilages that connect the ribs to the breastbone. In the long term, it can prevent the lungs from expanding sufficiently due to the stiffness in the rib cage, causing a decrease in respiratory capacity, shortness of breath, rapid breathing and inflammation in the lungs. If the pressure is measured below 10 kg/cm2 with special equipment that measures the force pressure applied from the point where the deformity is most prominent to the level where the chest wall reaches the desired position according to the thoracic rigidity/flexibility status of the patients, orthotic treatment is recommended. After treatment for more than 12 hours a day, usually 6 months, in many patients, regression of the deformity and high patient satisfaction were observed. What is a Jeans Tumor? Treatment Methods They can originate from the bone, cartilage and soft tissues that make up the chest wall. Chest wall tumors are divided into two groups according to their behavior: benign and malignant. Chest wall tumors can occur at any age. Tumors originating from the bones and cartilages forming the chest wall constitute the majority of chest wall tumors. Postero-anterior chest X-ray is helpful in the diagnosis. Thorax CT is a better method to provide information about the tumor. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a preferred method in chest wall tumors. Tissue samples for histopathological examination can be performed by percutaneous needle biopsy, incisional or excisional open biopsies. Rib Fractures Symptoms and Treatment Methods Our thoracic cage consists of the anterior sternum, which is popularly known as the sternum, in the front, the vertebrae in the back, and 12 pairs of ribs extending horizontally to each other between these two structures. Although this structure is bone, it is actually flexible and helps the breathing process with the help of the muscles between the ribs. Our ribs can be broken due to traffic accidents and falling from a height, as well as due to simple falls, impacts, blunt injuries. Rib fractures occur not only due to external factors, but also due to severe coughing in patients with osteoporosis in advanced ages. Treatment of rib fractures is done with pain relievers, muscle relaxants and sputum thinners that help sputum to come out easily. The patient is advised to rest. It is recommended to lie in a light sitting position. Cast treatment used for fractures in other bones is not performed because the flexibility of the rib cage must continue during the breathing process. Wearing a corset is not recommended. What is the Sternum? What are the diseases? The sternum, known as the breastbone in the human body, is the name given to the part located between the left and right rib bones. Due to its location, it has a very important position in the body. Together with the lungs, it takes on the task of protecting the heart against injury. Due to its current position, most pain experienced in the sternum can be confused with a heart attack.

Bölgesel aşırı terleme yerlerine ek olarak göğüste, sırtta, göbek çevresinde, kalçada ve bacaklarda aşırı terleme beraber olabilir. Yaygın terleme daha çok belirli bir hastalık sonrasında olabilmektedir. Bu nedenle yaygın terleme ile gelen hastalarda mutlaka ileri tetkikler yapılarak terlemenin sebebi araştırılmalıdır. What is General Body Sweating? General body sweating, as the name suggests, is the sweating of our body from all parts of the body. In addition to local areas of excessive sweating, excessive sweating may occur together on the chest, back, around the navel, hips and legs. Widespread sweating may occur more often after a certain disease. For this reason, in patients presenting with diffuse sweating, further investigations should be performed to investigate the cause of sweating. In some patients, no cause can be found. In this case, sweat surgery We can only do it for excessive sweating on the hands, armpits and face. We cannot stop sweating in the whole body with surgery. Cutting off all sweat is not good for health anyway. The most important thing we need to know here is that hand sweats , facial sweats and armpit sweats disappear after sweating surgery performed on people with common sweating. However, what we call reflex sweating is more common in these patients. In other words, excessive sweating can be seen more in the sweating areas that already exist in other parts of the body, as well as the amount of sweat on the hands, armpits and face, which is cut by surgery. Again, this may vary from person to person. As a result, it is not possible to cut off the sweat of the whole body. In addition, if it is desired to stop sweating on the hands, armpits and face, clip-on ets treatment is performed. Contact us TE R L E M APPENDIX

What are the types? What are the symptoms? What is a Lung Malignant Tumor? Prof. Dr. Serdar Khan It is popularly known as lung cancer. Lung cancers, among cancers They are tumors that continue to reproduce (grow) and tend to spread. most common in the world are among the most common tumors. Although it is so common , its diagnosis and treatment is unfortunately not that early. The main reason for this is until you make a complaint. cancer reaching a significant size in the lung and meanwhile out of the lung is a splash. During this period, they do not give any symptoms or are not taken seriously because they cause complaints that can be seen in everyone. The most important complaints It can cause severe pain when the cancer is against the chest wall , or severe coughing when it is in the airways. and over time, it causes bloody sputum. Most of those detected at this stage are also signs of advanced lung cancer. There are many causes of lung cancer. It is often impossible to give a single reason. However, the most important known responsibilities are; smoking, working environment and occupational exposure time, family history of cancer. It is very important to prevent lung cancer, especially not to smoke, pay attention to nutrition and improve the working environment. Despite everything, being diagnosed with lung cancer is troublesome, but one should try to overcome it with determination and combativeness, and not surrender immediately. If your cancer is caught from the very beginning, which we call an early stage, we see that the results are unexpectedly good. In the early period, surgical treatment alone is sufficient. In advanced periods, medication or radiation therapy can be applied together with surgery before or after it. In the last stage, drug and radiation therapy can be performed successfully. Unfortunately, cancer treatment is still not a disease that can be fully cured today. Especially lung cancer constitutes more aggressive and negative results compared to other cancers. All this, of course, varies according to the patients. Each disease can show different results in everyone. Malignant tumors of the lung are grouped under two main headings. These are classified as non-small cell and small cell lung cancer. Small cell lung cancers are mostly treated with drugs. Non-small cell lung cancers are also examined under two main headings. These are squamous cell and adeno cell lung cancers. Of these, the adeno type has a more aggressive and invasive feature. In both types, early surgical treatment is very successful. In general, squamous cell lung cancer patients have a higher chance of being cured. What is Lung Benign Tumor? They are congenital or acquired tumors of the lung. They are mostly detected incidentally in the patient. There are very few complaints. They can be detected on a chest X-ray. They do not spread like malignant tumors and do not grow to harm the human body. It can often be seen after an infection. Due to the high incidence of tuberculosis in our country, hamartoma is especially common. These also need to be followed closely. It is possible to turn into malignant cancers later on. Benign tumors that are found to be large should be evaluated surgically. It should be considered malignant until proven otherwise. It must be followed meticulously. Since advances in surgery provide patients with a more comfortable opportunity, all tumoral conditions observed in the lung must be evaluated surgically. What is Lung Metastatic Tumor? As it is known, the lung is an organ that cleans the blood coming from all parts of the body. For this reason, wherever there is a disease in our body, we are more likely to see it in the lungs. It is common for cancer that develops in another organ to spread to the lung, in other words, to metastasize. In the fight against cancer, sometimes the removal of metastases is in favor of the patient. It all depends on the specific circumstances. It is not made for everyone. The main rules for the removal of metastases are that there is no tumor in the place where the first tumor originates, there is no metastasis in any place other than the lung, the number and size of the metastases to be removed in the lung should be reasonable. As I said at the beginning, this is a special issue. Each patient should be evaluated meticulously in this regard. What Are Rare Tumors of the Lung? There are rare malignant and benign tumors of the lung. They do not differ in general approach. They are diagnosed by doing the tests we know before the surgery. Anatomical resection and lymph node dissection are performed for malignant tumors. A more appropriate resection can be applied to benign tumors according to the nature of the tumor. As a result, we can learn that the tumor is a rare tumor after pathological examination. Accordingly, we follow the patient. Since long-term follow-up results are not available for these tumors, close follow-up is appropriate.

Curiosities About Lung Cancer What Are the First Symptoms of Lung Cancer? Lung cancer symptoms begin to appear as the disease progresses. There are usually no signs or symptoms in the early stages. The most common symptoms of lung cancer are: persistent cough that gets worse Cough-related back pain Change in sputum color bloody sputum wheezing hoarseness of voice difficulty breathing A feeling of being stuck in the throat difficulty swallowing Having pneumonia and bronchitis often Swelling in the neck and face areas Swelling of the tips of the fingers and toes (clubbing) bone pain Anemia eyelid drooping shrinkage of the pupil Headache Loss of appetite weight loss Weakness Tiredness For Your Questions What are the Causes of Lung Cancer? The most common cause of lung cancer is smoking. However, lung cancer can also occur in people who have never smoked in their life. However, smoking is the biggest risk factor for lung cancer. Another cause of lung cancer is exposure to asbestos. Asbestos is a fibrous mineral that is resistant to heat and abrasion with carcinogenic properties. Asbestos, which was widely used for heat and sound insulation when its harmful effects were not known, is now exposed to its harmful effects during dismantling. For Your Questions Treatment of Lung Cancer In general, different treatment options such as surgery, radiation therapy (radiotherapy) and drug therapy (chemotherapy) are applied in lung cancer. In recent years, in addition to chemotherapy, smart drugs and vaccine treatments (immunotherapy) have emerged as treatment options in this type of cancer. Smart drugs have been shown to be very effective not in all patients, but only in patients who have been shown to have certain genetic mutations (EGFR, ALK and ROS1) that can be examined from pathology parts and in recent years from blood (liquid biopsy). Smart drugs are in the form of tablets and can be used easily at home without coming to the hospital. Vaccine treatments (immunotherapy) are a much newer option in this type of cancer.

There is an inner membrane covering one lung and an outer membrane covering the inner surface of the thorax outside the lung. Between these two membranes, there is a thin gap and a slippery liquid that allows them to move freely over each other. They allow the lungs to move freely. In addition, there is negative pressure between these two membranes for the lung to inflate and fall comfortably. There may be many disturbances between these membranes and both membranes. What are Pleural Diseases? How Is It Treated? What is a pneumothorax? ( Air Accumulation Between Two Dice ) The accumulation of air between the two membranes is called pneumothorax. The air accumulating in the middle prevents the lung from deflating and, together with it, the ventilation of that lung. It causes shortness of breath. Sudden chest pain occurs in some cases of pneumothorax. This means that the lung membranes are adhered to each other. Patients often go to the doctor because of this sudden and severe pain. No sound can be heard on that side in the X-ray and the lung that is listened to, and the lung cannot be seen on that side on the chest X-ray, it is easy to diagnose. Although the treatment is variable, it is often satisfactory. In other words, the amount of free air accumulating between the membranes can be different. If it is less, only observation and oxygen therapy can be done. In intermediate and advanced levels, chest tube is applied. Treatment should be provided in about 1 week with a chest tube. If sufficient success is not achieved, surgical treatments are applied with a videothoracoscopic approach. Pneumothorax disease is in the group of recurrent diseases. It is necessary to explain this well to the patients. The frequency of recurrence is significantly reduced in patients who have undergone surgery and bonding. If there is a cause of pneumothorax, it should be investigated. The most important examination for this is high resolution lung tomography. Pleural Effusion What? ( Fluid Accumulation Between Inner and Outer Membrane ) It is the accumulation of fluid between the leaves of the pleura (between the inner and outer membrane). This may be the fluid of a malignant cancer or it may be a benign fluid secondary to an infection. It appears as an indicator of the underlying disease. With the progression of the disease in the lung, fluid begins to accumulate between the lung membranes. There may also be diseases of the pleura itself. The most important problem here is the inability of the lungs to do their own work, that is, shortness of breath, due to the fluid accumulating here. For this reason, the amount of fluid that can cause problems here must be treated. First, medical treatments can be tried. These are methods such as diuretics, protein supplementation or hemodialysis. If sufficient success is not achieved with these, thoracic catheters are placed to drain the fluid. If there is fluid accumulation due to a malignant tumor, pleurodesis can be performed to prevent recurrence. What is Mesothelioma? ( Malignant Tumor of the Pulmonary Membrane ) mesothelioma; It is the name of the malignant tumor of the lung membrane. Unfortunately, it is one of the worst-progressing cancers. The reason is asbestos found in the region or in the working environment. Occurs after long-term exposure. This period is around 40 years on average. The process is short as it does not respond well to treatments. If the general condition of the patient is good, we see that the surgical procedure and drug treatments have recently had some satisfactory results. What is my empyema? ( Inflammation Accumulation Between Lung Membranes ) It is an accumulation of inflammation between the lung membranes. The only treatment for the accumulated inflammation is drainage and the use of appropriate antibiotics against the microbe that caused it. Today, the incidence of empyema has decreased significantly due to the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics suitable for infections in the early period. The first thing to do is to insert a chest tube, if appropriate. If adequate drainage cannot be achieved, the empyema must be evacuated surgically. What is Chylothorax? ( Accumulation of Lymph Fluid Between the Lung Membranes ) It is the accumulation of lymph fluid between the lung membranes. It can be seen after injury, during surgical interventions, or after spontaneous injury to the thoracic duct. The situation is different in chylothorax compared to other fluids. It may take time to close or recover. The first treatment approach is drainage, discontinuation of oral intake and intravenous nutrition. Most cases of chylothorax can be treated with this method. Surgical treatment is applied for those whose chylothorax persists for more than 1 week or if it is excessive from the beginning. The most important thing here is that the patient and the doctor patiently follow the treatment. One of the most important situations is to get everything that is sufficient in intravenous nutrition. That's why a dietitian is so important.

Symptoms of pneumothorax may be as follows: Mesothelioma Symptoms Malignant Tumor of the Lung Membrane Mesothelioma is a disease that usually presents with the accumulation of water in the chest cavity, and the most common complaints are pain and progressive shortness of breath. In addition, symptoms such as cough, bleeding from the mouth, weight loss, loss of appetite, fatigue, and weakness are also seen in patients. First of all, chest X-ray and tomography are taken, and although some typical findings can be detected, the standard method used for definitive diagnosis is biopsy. First, samples are taken from the fluid accumulated in the lung and sent to pathology for examination. If the diagnosis cannot be made with the result, pleural biopsy is performed. Biopsy can be done by needle or surgical method. It is also applied to the patient in examinations such as PET-CT, ultrasonography, MR to investigate the spread of cancer. Empyema Symptoms Inflammation Accumulation Between Lung Membranes It creates a picture of high fever, chest pain and cough in the patient. Fluid in the chest cavity can be visualized with radiological imaging. Inflammation (pus) can be seen on examination of the fluid. In the presence of empyema, it is necessary to drain the inflammatory fluid in addition to medical antibiotic therapy. Chylothorax Symptoms Accumulation of Lymph Fluid Between the Lung Membranes The most common complaint in chylothorax cases is shortness of breath, which is caused by the accumulation of lymphatic fluid in the intrapleural space. If the cases are not treated, primarily nutritional deficiency, fluid-electrolyte imbalance and immunodeficiency in the later period occur due to lymphatic fluid loss.
