Background: Lung cancer is the most frequent cancer among men and second highest among women overall, including in Turkey. Cigarette smoking is the most important etiologic factor for the development of cancer in both men and women. Objective: To determine the lung cancer incidence in Northeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey with a focus on clinical properties, cancer subtypes, the relationships of tumors with cigarette smoking and radiological properties of the lesions. Materials and Methods: In a retrospective study design, 566 lung cancer cases diagnosed at the Pathology Department of Ataturk University in Erzurum over the last seven years extending from January 2006 to June 2012 were investigated. The results were compared with statistical analyses. Results: The most common histopathological subtype of primary bronchogenic carcinoma in our study was found to be the squamous cell carcinoma, 46.1% (261 out of 566), and the second was small cell lung carcinoma 15.7% (89 out of 566). Based on our data, an overall male predominance was noted with a male/female ratio of 6.1/1. While 296 (52.2%) of the patients were found to be smokers at the time of diagnosis, 125 (22.0%) were nonsmokers and 145 (25.6%) were ex-smokers. Smoking status was found to have a strong correlation with primary lung cancer (p<0.05), and there were significant differences between males and females (p<0.001). Conclusion: Although relative prominence of subtypes of lung cancers differ between Turkish and other populations, lung cancer overall remains as an important health problem in Turkey. Our findings stress the critical need for effective cancer prevention programs such as anti-smoking campaigns.

Objective: Our aim was to assess the diagnostic performance of F-18 fluorocholine (FCH) positron emission tomography/ computed tomography (PET/CT) in detecting hyperfunctioning parathyroid tissue (HPT) in patients with elevated parathyroid hormone levels with negative or inconclusive conventional imaging results and to compare the findings with those obtained using technetium-99m sestamibi (MIBI) scintigraphy and neck ultrasonography (US). Materials and Methods: Images of 105 patients with hyperparathyroidism who underwent FCH PET/CT, dual-phase MIBI parathyroid scintigraphy (median interval: 42 days), and neck US were retrospectively analyzed. The gold standard was histopathological findings for 81 patients who underwent parathyroidectomy and clinical follow-up findings in the remaining 24 patients. Sensitivities, positive predictive values (PPVs), and accuracies were calculated for all imaging modalities. Results: Among the 81 patients who underwent parathyroidectomy, either parathyroid adenoma (n = 64), hyperplasia (n = 9), neoplasia (n = 4), or both parathyroid adenoma and hyperplasia (n = 1) were detected, except 3 patients who did not show HPT. Of the 24 (23%) patients who were followed-up without operation, 22 (92%) showed persistent hyperparathyroidism. FCH PET/CT showed significantly higher sensitivity than MIBI scintigraphy and US in detection of HPT (p < 0.01). Sensitivity, PPV, and accuracy of FCH PET/CT were 94.1% (95/101), 97.9% (95/97), and 92.4% (97/105), respectively. The corresponding values for MIBI scintigraphy and US were 45.1% (46/102), 97.9% (46/47), and 45.7% (48/105) and 44.1% (45/102), 93.8% (45/48), and 42.9% (45/105), respectively. Among the 35 patients showing negative MIBI scintigraphy and neck US findings, 30 (86%) showed positive results on FCH PET/CT. FCH PET/CT could demonstrate ectopic locations of HPT in 11 patients whereas MIBI and US showed positive findings in only 6 and 3 patients, respectively. Conclusion: FCH PET/CT is an effective imaging modality for detection of HPT with the highest sensitivity among the available imaging techniques. Therefore, FCH PET/CT can be recommended especially for patients who show negative or inconclusive results on conventional imaging.
