Background: Adrenal neoplasms are common and are incidentally discovered in 4-10% of abdominal imaging studies. Most of them are not cancerous and nonfunctional. Every adrenal incidentaloma is evaluated with function tests for functionality. In our study we aimed to investigate the relation of tumor markers which were measured for other reasons and function tests in nonfunctional adrenal adenomas retrospectively. Methods: Patients diagnosed with nonfunctional adrenal adenoma in the last three years in our research hospital were evaluated retrospectively. Data of 133 patients including function tests (renin -aldosterone-17OHprogesterone-testosterone-dehydroepiandrosteronesulphate levels, 24 hour urinary metanephrine and normetanephrine levels, overnight dexamethasone supression test) were evaluated. Fortyfi ve of these 133 patients had tumor markers (CEA, alpha-fetoprotein, CA 19-9, CA15-3, CA125) recorded. The relation between function tests and tumor markers are examined. Results: The data of 31 women and 16 men with mean age 55,54±10,64 years and 56,06±11,41 years respectively were evaluated. There was a negative correlation between age and CA-125 levels. A negative correlation was also found between testosterone and CA15-3. There was a positive correlation between urinary cortisole and CEA and also between aldosterone and CA19-9 levels. Conclusions: Tumor markers may be used as alternative tests for function tests. But future studies with big sample size are needed to confi rm this hypothesis.

Purpose: We aimed to study the inflammatory parameters of complete blood count in breast cancer cases. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study covered 178 breast cancer patients and 107 age and body mass index matched healthy women. Complete blood count parameters, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and MPV/platelet were analyzed. Results: The leukocyte, neutrophil and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio were higher in the patient group (p values 0.001, 0.0001 and 0.0001, respectively) while haemoglobin and hematocrit were higher in the control group (p=0.0001 for both). Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated neutrophils and platelet distribution width (PDW) (OR: 0.627, 95%CI: 0.508-0.774, p=0.001 and OR: 1.191 95%CI: 1.057-1.342 p=0.003) were independent variables for predicting breast cancer. The cut-off value for the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio was 2.56. Conclusions: According to our study results, neutrophil levels as part of complete blood count may be used as an independent predictor of breast cancer risk.
