Abstract

Aim: We aimed to evaluate the presentation and distribution of pathologic and clinical data of patients who were operated with benign vocal cord lesions in our clinic.
Material and Method: The study was performed with retrospective evaluation of patient files diagnosed as benign vocal cord lesions between December 2013 and March 2017 at Kırıkkale University Medical Faculty Otorhinolaryngology Department.
Results: Their average age was 47.8 a total of 108 patients were analyzed. Twenty four patients (22.3%) were female and 84 patients (77.7%) were male. According to pathological results of patients, 61 patients results were vocal cord polyp (56.4%), 20 patients results were leukoplakia (18.5%), 11 patients were Reinke’s edema (10.1%), 7 patients were laryngeal cyst (6.4%), 6 patients were vocal cord nodule (5.5%), 2 patients were laryngeal papillomatosis (1.8%), 1 patient was laryngocele (0.9%).
Conclusion: Patients with benign vocal cord lesions are most frequently encountered with vocal cord polyp in pathology results. With the evaluation of pathological results of benign vocal cord lesions of each clinic, data on the distribution of the results of benign vocal cord lesions in our country can be created.

Amaç: Kliniğimizde opere olan benign vokal kord lezyonları hastaların patolojik ve klinik verilerinin sunulması ve dağılım yüzdelerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma Kırıkkale Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Kulak Burun Boğaz Anabilim Dalında Aralık 2013 - Mart 2017 tarihleri arasında benign vokal kord lezyonları tanısı alan hasta dosyalarının retrospektif olarak değerlendirilmesi ile gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Bulgular: Ortalama yaşları 47,8 olan toplam 108 hastanın verileri incelendi. Hastaların 24’ü (%22,3) kadın 84’ü (%77,7) erkek idi. Hastaların patoloji sonuçları 61 (%56,4) vokal kord polipi, 20 (%18,5) değişik derecelerde keratotik lezyon olan lökoplazi, 11 (%10,1) Reinke ödemi, 7 (%6,4) larengeal kist, 6 (%5,5) vokal kord nodülü, 2 (%1,8) larinks papillomatozu ve 1 (%0,9) larengosel olarak kaydedildi. Hastaların 76’sının (%70,3) anamnezinde sigara öyküsü olduğu gözlendi.
Sonuç: Benign vokal kord lezyonları bulunan hastaların patoloji sonuçlarında en sık vokal kord polipi ile karşılaşılmaktadır. Her kliniğin benign vokal kord lezyonları patoloji sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi ile ülkemizdeki benign vokal kord lezyonları sonuçlarının dağılımı ile ilgili veriler oluşturulabilir.
