TÜRKİYE’DE KUZEY-DOĞU ANADOLU BÖLGESİNDEKİ MİDE BİYOPSİLERİNİN İNCELENMESİ İLE: MORFOLOJİK-KLİNİK UYUMUN ÖNEMİ
AMAÇ: Çalışmamızda Türkiye'deki Kuzey-Doğu Anadolu
THE IMPORTANCE OF MORPHOLOGICAL-CLINICAL CONSISTENCY: THROUGH THE REVIEW OF GASTRIC BIOPSIES IN NORTH-EASTERN ANATOLIA REGION IN TURKEY
OBJECTIVE: In our study we aimed to make a generallyreview of gastric biyopsies in North-Eastern Anatoliaregion in Turkey such as; percentages of malignancy ordysplasia, reasons of re-biopsy recommendations andresults of second biopsies if taken.MATERIAL AND METHODS: 1840 gastric biopsies whichexamined by 3 pathologists at 2 centers were analyzedretrospectively. Percentages of malignancy or dysplasia,cases which were recommended for re-biopsies, reasonsof recommendations and results of re-biopsies wereexamined. In the results of the second biopsies, dysplasia,malignancy and gastritis were accepted as a significantresult.RESULTS: The mean age of our cases was 52.9 ± 16.6 years(range: 18-95 years). 1012 (55%) patients were femalesand 828 (45%) patients were males. In 90 out of 1840cases, biopsies were taken for suspect of malignancy,clinically. 35 of 90 cases were reported as malignancy. In61 out of 1840 cases re-biopsy were recommended. Reasonsof recommendations for re-biopsy categorized inthree groups: suspect of malignancy- clinically, suspectof malignancy- morphologically, insufficient (superficial)biopsies. 12 (46.2%) of 26 cases which were taken secondbiopsies were reported as malignancy and gastricdysplasia. Only in 2 (7.6%) of 26 cases the results wereinsignificant (insufficient biopsy).CONCLUSIONS: Endoscopic findings provide informationabout the diagnosis but are not pathognomonicwhich also need histological confirmation. Closeworking relationship and a good dialogue between thepathologist and the gastroenterologist is essential forclinical-morpological consistency, morphological-clinicalconsistency and final diagnosis.
