    (Düzce Üniversitesi, 2011) Gezer, Suat; Yıldırım, Ümran; Dumlu, Talha; Balbay, Oner; Kandiş, Hayati; Özaydın, İsmet; Karapolat, Sami
    Nerve sheath tumors such as neurofibroma, schwannoma, and perineurioma are relativelyuncommon lesions that sometimes constitute an interesting diagnostic and therapeutic problemin the clinical practice.A 27-year-old male patient was operated for a mass located in the left posterior mediastinum.The mass was resected by a thoracotomy, and a diagnosis of atypical neurofibroma was revealedhistopathologically. He has been well without any problems in his 6 months postoperativeperiod.Intrathoracic neurogenic tumors should be resected surgically due to the possibility ofmalignancy. Complete resection can be performed safely by a thoracotomy approach and isnecessary for achieving a cure

    Impact of Earthquakes on Lung Health
    (Aves, 2024) Balbay, Ege Gulec; Kayalar, Ozgecan; Balbay, Oner; Dikensoy, Oner; Arbak, Peri; Bayram, Hasan
    Earthquakes are catastrophic natural disasters that cause extensive damage to infrastructure and disrupt the lives of millions worldwide. Beyond the immediate physical and psychological damage caused by earthquakes, these events can significantly impact respiratory health. The inhalation of dust, smoke, particulates, toxic gases, and asbestos exposure can lead to various respiratory health pathologies. These include respiratory infections, exacerbations of pre-existing respiratory diseases, chest traumas, and pulmonary and venous thromboembolism. Longitudinal studies are necessary to assess the long-term respiratory health effects in affected populations. By addressing these knowledge gaps, future mitigation strategies and preparedness measures can be developed to minimize the respiratory health impacts of earthquakes and improve the well-being of affected communities. Robust building infrastructure and comprehensive earthquake preparedness are emerging as the most important determinants for not only mitigating building collapse but also significantly reducing the potential health impacts that follow. This comprehensive review aims to provide a systematic overview of the lung health impacts of earthquakes. It highlights the need for further research to identify specific pollutants, air contaminants, and environmental factors contributing to respiratory health issues following earthquakes.

    The Relationship Between Respiratory Complaints and Urine Aluminum Levels in Aluminum Factory Workers
    (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2023) BilgiN, Cahit; Arbak, Peri; Balbay, Ege Gulec; Balbay, Oner; Annakkaya, Ali Nihat
    ObjectiveThis prospective case-control study aimed to investigate the forms and conditions of respiratory effects in workers working in an Aluminum Profile Factory.MethodsAll male (42 person, mean age: 32.2 +/- 6.9) workers working in an Aluminum Profile Factory were compared with 33 controls.ResultsThe urinary aluminum levels of the workers were significantly higher than the control group. Complaints of cough, sputum, shortness of breath and wheezing were statistically significantly higher than the control group. In aluminum workers, those with dyspnea had a significantly higher urinary Al level than those without dyspnea.ConclusionsIt is thought that primary and secondary prevention are both important in the workplaces with aluminum exposure. Urinary aluminum level monitoring could be key to protecting the respiratory health of the workers.
