    Adolescent pregnancy and depression: is there an association?
    (7847050 Canada Inc, 2016) Kamalak, Z.; Kosus, N.; Kosus, A.; Hizli, D.; Akcal, B.; Kafali, H.; Canbal, M.
    Objective: The impact of being an adolescent and socio-demographic parameters on depression development during pregnancy were evaluated in this study. Materials and Methods: Between September 2010 and September 2011, 105 consecutive adolescent women <= 17 years of age were defined as the study group and 105 consecutive pregnant women over 18 years of age and matched for gestational age, were defined as the control group. Groups were compared according to depression development. The predictors of depression were analyzed by regression analysis. Results: Median Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) scores in adolescent and control groups were 16 and 6, respectively. The difference was statistically significant. In the adolescent group, 39.0% of patients had mild depression, 37.1% moderate, and 10.5% had severe depression. Only 4.8% of patients in the control group had mild depression while none of the control cases had moderate or severe depression. Multivariate analysis showed that most important factor that was associated with depression development during pregnancy was being an adolescent. Conclusion: Depression risk was increased 18.2-fold in adolescent patients with pregnancy. Therefore psychiatric evaluation should be considered for these patients.

    Cardiac arrest: an unexpected complication during laparoscopic bilateral tubal ligation - a rare case report
    (I R O G Canada, Inc, 2016) Kamalak, Z.; Kosus, N.; Isaoglu, U.; Tanriverdi, E. C.; Isaoglu, N.
    Data consistently show that in experienced trained hands, laparoscopic tubal sterilization is safe and highly effective regardless of the approach or occlusive method. The known mortality rate is between four and eight deaths per 100,000 cases and the rate of intraoperative and postoperative major complications is less than 1%. The anesthetic complication rate for laparoscopy is between 0.016% and 0.75%. Carbon dioxide (CO2) pneumoperitoneum effects are still controversial. Here the authors present a case report of patient who suffered from intraoperative cardiac arrest during laparoscopic tubal ligation under general anesthesia. No definite cause has been identified. The authors outline several possible mechanisms that could have been involved and attempt to discuss these events in the face of published reports describing similar complications.

    Clitoral and labial sizes in women with PCOS
    (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2016) Kosus, A.; Kamalak, Z.; Kosus, N.; Hizli, D.; Eser, A.
    The aim of this study was to examine the external genital features in Turkish women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Thirty-two newly diagnosed PCOS cases and 35 healthy women were included the study. All women underwent a thorough gynaecological examination. Clitoral length, and labia minora length and width were recorded. The groups were compared for features of external genital structures. Clitoral and labial lengths were significantly higher in PCOS group. There was a strong correlation between clitoral length and modified Ferriman-Gallwey score. The most effective predictor of PCOS was found to be clitoral length. Clitoral length alone predicted 99.9% of PCOS patients. There were some subclinical genital changes in women with PCOS. These changes in PCOS patients may be a sign of hyperandrogenism and might have diagnostic value in indistinct cases.

    Does quality of female sexual function improve after a transobturator tape procedure?
    (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2014) Kamalak, Z.; Kosus, A.; Hizli, F.; Kosus, N.; Hizli, D.; Kafali, H.
    The aim of this study was to use a questionnaire to evaluate any changes in sexual satisfaction of women who underwent a transobturator tape (TOT) procedure for stress urinary incontinence. A total of 30 women agreed to participate in the study and were invited to fill out the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) questionnaire prior to surgery and 3 months after surgery. As a result, after the TOT operation, there was a statistically significant improvement in libido (desire), arousal, lubrication, orgasm and satisfaction. The TOT procedure seems to have a positive effect on female sexual function by reducing the urinary leakage during sexual activity and by decreasing the pain during or after sexual activity.
