Öğe Ani beklenmedik ölümlerde kist hidatik : Olgu sunumları ve literatür derlemesi(2007) Arslan, Muhammet Mustafa; Eren, Ali; Karanfil, Ramazan; Çekin, NecmiÜlkemizde yaygın olarak görülen kist hidatik hastalığı, özellikle yerleştiği organın fonksiyonlarını bozması ve kistin rüptüre olması sonucu ölüme neden olmaktadır. Olgularımızın da irdelendiği bu literatür derlemesinde, kist hidatik olgularının ani beklenmedik ölümlerdeki etkisinin literatür eşliğinde tartışılarak sunulması amaçlandı. 2 yıllık sürede otopsisi yapılan adli olgular içerisinde kist hidatik saptanan 12 olgunun ölü muayene tutanakları ve otopsi raporları incelendi. Olgularımızın yaşlarının 7-75 arasında ve 8'inin erkek olduğu saptandı. Tüm olgularda sadece karaciğer tutulumu mevcuttu. Çalışmamızda; 4 olgunun ölüm mekanizmasını açıklayacak başka herhangi bir neden bulunmayıp ölüm nedenlerinin kist hidatik ve komplikasyonlarından kaynaklandığına karar verilmiştir. Konu ileilgili literatür incelendiğinde; sadece bir olgu dışında, ani ölümlerin kistin rüptüre olmasına bağlı olduğu görülmektedir. Ancak çalışmamızdaki 8 ani beklenmedik ölümde kist hidatik bulunması dikkat çekici bulunmuştur. Makroskobik olarak bütünlüğünü koruyan kist hidatik olgularında mikro açılımlar veya benzer bir mekanizma ile ani ölüm meydana getireceği kanısı oluşabilmektedir. Tartışılması ve araştırılması gereken husus, rüptüre olmamış hidatik kistin ani ölüme neden olup-olmadığıdır. Bu nedenle geniş vaka serilerinde prospektif mikrobiyolojik ve serolojik çalışmaların yapılması gerekmektedir.Öğe Evaluation of sexual assaults in Turkey(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2013) Karanfil, Ramazan; Keten, Alper; Zeren, Cem; Arslan, M. Mustafa; Eren, AliIntroduction: Sex crimes remain an important problem all over the world. Very few studies about sexual offenses in Turkey have been published. Sexual assault is a serious social problem that constitutes serious health conditions affecting the lives of involved individuals. In this study, we aimed to investigate socio-demographic features of victims, assailant-victim relationships and sexual assault findings. Material and methods: A total of 324 sexual assault victims presenting to and examined in the Department of Forensic Medicine, Kahramanmaras Sutcu Imam University Medical Faculty, between January 2007 and December 2010 were included in the study. The victims completed a survey at face to face interviews. Results: Of 324 victims, 268 (82.7%) were female and 56 (17.3%) were male. The mean age of the victims was 16.78 +/- 7.16 years. In all cases, types of the assaults were as following; vaginal penetration in 160 (49.4%), anal penetration in 117(36.1%), oral penetration with penis in 7(2.2%) and in the form of kissing, fondling, touching the sex organ and rubbing the sex organ in 60 (18.5%) cases. Of all the assaults, 149 (46%) were found to take place in the assailants' homes and 49 (15.1%) in the victims' homes. Of 139 cases, 85 (26.3%) had genital injury alone and 54 (16.7%) had anal injury. Conclusion: On the contrary to the previous studies, this study revealed that sexual assaults occurred mostly in the assailants' homes and that the incidence of anal trauma was higher.

Parallel with the development of medical and technological areas, the life expectancy gets longer and geriatric population has been dramatically increasing. In this respect, geriatric deaths are frequently encountered due to increasing risk factors and pathophysiological changes in aging process. The records of the Forensic Medicine Institution Adana Group Authority Morgue Specialty Office were used. Death certificates and autopsy records of 9007 cases autopsied between the years of 1998 and 2007 were examined retrospectively. Seven hundred and twenty-six geriatric age (>65 years) deaths were taken in the scope of the study. All of the cases were analyzed with regard to age, sex, cause of death, incident place, and the place and origin of death. Geriatric deaths comprised 8.1% (726 cases) of all the medicolegal autopsy cases (9007) during these ten years. Of all geriatric deaths, 73.8% (536) were male while 26.2% (190) were female. Ages of cases were between 65 and 96 years, and the mean age was 72.3. Majority (310 cases, 42.7%) of deaths were by natural causes, while this was followed by accidental deaths with 227 cases (31.4%). This study was aimed to discuss the general features of geriatric deaths accepted as forensic cases, in the light of the literature. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

The agent may cause significant health problems and economic loss as a zoonotic disease. Freshwater plants play an important role for infecting humans with this parasite. Eating watercress, drinking water that contains metacercaria, using contaminated kitchen tools, or consuming green vegetables may cause infestation. Green vegetables and fruits, especially watercress, are grown specifically in the Cukurova region and this puts the population living in this region at risk of developing fasciolosis. For the reason of absence of the seroprevalence studies in autopsies and to determine the prevalence of this region, the aim of this study, is to investigate F. hepatica antibody by the method of IHA blood samples which were taken from autopsy cases in the Çukurova Region. Material and Methods: This study was conducted in Adana Forensic Medicine Department, a center where all forensic autopsies from the cities of Adana, Mersin, Kahramanmaras, Hatay and Osmaniye were performed. There were 94 subjects between the ages of 2-87 years (mean:42.55±SD22.09) and their serum samples were collected for assessment of F. hepatica antibodies via the IHA method. Moreover, we examined the hepatobiliary system for adult parasites. Results: IHA results demonstrated that 13 (13.8%) of the subjects were seropositivite for F. hepatica. During the autopsy, however, mature F. hepatica was not observed in hepatobiliary systems of the subjects. Seropositivity rates in Adana, Mersin, Hatay and Osmaniye were 19.4%, 7.1%, 12.5% and 22.2%, respectively. Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first study evaluating F. hepatica seropositivity in forensic autopsies. Seeing the results, we suggest that more comprehensive epidemiologic research is needed to study this infestation, especially in endemic areas. © 2013 by Türkiye Klinikleri.Öğe An Unusual Cause of Death at Preschool Age Scalding by Hot Milk(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2010) Cekin, Necmi; Akcan, Ramazan; Arslan, Mustafa M.; Hilal, Ahmet; Eren, AliScalding is one of the most painful and devastating burn injuries a child can suffer. Victims are generally scalded by splashed or spilled hot fluids in the home environment. Interestingly, scalding by hot milk is a common cause of burns in rural parts of Turkey. This study aimed to identify the general features of scalding by hot milk, and to make the authorities aware of this problem through educational programs for parents and caregivers. The records of the Council of Forensic Medicine Adana Group Administration and public prosecutor's office were used. Forty-four deaths in children of preschool age (under 6) due to scalding by hot milk during 2001-2005 were analyzed. Scalding with hot milk constituted 1.05% of all medico-legal deaths (4183) during the period considered. Twenty-five (56.81%) of the victims were male while 19 (43.19%) were female. The victims' ages ranged between 18 months and 6 years, with a mean age of 3.03. Scalding by hot milk appears to be an important public health problem, especially in rural areas of Turkey. Educational programs for families and caregivers and implementation of simple safety measures will decrease the prevalence of deaths due to such preventable injuries.
