INCIDENCE OF HYDATIDIFORM MOLE IN SYRIAN IMMIGRANT WOMEN AND TURKISH WOMEN

Year 2020, Volume: 83 Issue: 4, 427 - 433, 19.10.2020

Abstract

Objective: Immigration may affect the incidence of hydatidiform mole (HM). In this study, we aim to compare Syrian immigrant and Turkish pregnant women in terms of HM due to abortion and termination of pregnancy. Method: An analysis of 907 endometrial curettage materials due to abortion or termination of pregnancy between the years 2016- 2018 were performed. These curettage materials were examined with routine histopathologic methods. Examination of the curettage materials was repeated by a pathologist to confirm the diagnosis. Results: HM was diagnosed in 56 of 768 Turkish pregnant women (7.30%) and it was diagnosed in 22 of 139 Syrian immigrant pregnant women (15.80%). HM incidence in Syrian immigrant pregnant women was significantly higher (2.06 times) than in Turkish women (p=0.001). The rate of Syrian pregnant women in the group aged 20 or younger was significantly higher than Turkish pregnant women (p<0.001). The rate of Turkish pregnant women aged between 30-34 and older was high in the group. Conclusions: The incidence of HM is higher in Syrian pregnant women. The main causes affecting the incidence of HM in Syrian immigrants are nationality and age. Migration, with all its components, may explain the difference in HM incidence between these two neighboring communities.

SURİYELİ GÖÇMEN VE TÜRK KADINLARINDA HİDATİFORM MOL İNSİDANSI

Year 2020, Volume: 83 Issue: 4, 427 - 433, 19.10.2020

Abstract

Amaç: Göç hidatiform mol (HM) insidansını etkileyebilir. Bu çalışmada, küretaj uygulanan ve gebeliği sonlandırılan Suriyeli göçmen ve Türk gebe kadınların HM açısından karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: 2016-2018 yılları arasında küretaj uygulanan ve gebeliği sonlandırılan 907 endometriyal küretaj materyalinin analizi yapıldı. Bu küretaj materyalleri rutin histopatolojik yöntemlerle incelendi. Küretaj materyallerinin incelenmesi, tanıyı doğrulamak için bir patolog tarafından tekrarlandı. Bulgular: HM, 768 Türk gebe kadından 56’sında (%7.30) ve 139 Suriyeli göçmen gebe kadından 22’sinde (%15,80) teşhis edildi. Suriyeli göçmen gebe kadınlarda HM insidansı Türk gebe kadınlara göre (2,06 kat) anlamlı derecede yüksekti (p=0.001). Yirmi yaşından küçük olan gruptaki Suriyeli gebe kadınların oranı Türk gebe kadınlara göre anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti (p<0.001). Türk gebe kadınların oranı ise 30-34 yaş ve daha yaşlı olan grupta yüksekti. Sonuç: Suriyeli göçmen gebe kadınlarda HM insidansı daha yüksektir. Suriyeli göçmenlerde HM insidansını etkileyen başlıca nedenler milliyet ve yaştır. Göçmenlik tüm bileşenleri ile bu iki komşu topluluk arasındaki HM insidansındaki farkı açıklayabilir.
