Effects of atmospheric nitrogen deposition on productivity and growth allocation. First results of a long-term experiment in a pre-alpine beech forest
Authors: Ravaioli Dario , Teglia Alessandra , Guerrieri Rossella , Marcolini Graziella , Muzzi Enrico , Magnani Federico
Published: April 2022

Atmospheric nitrogen deposition is an important global change driver, potentially affecting forest health and productivity. In order to evaluate the potential effects on tree growth and above-ground biomass production in southern European conditions, a long-term manipulation experiment was carried out in a prealpine beech forest (Pian Cansiglio, BL).
Four treatments are compared: (i) control, (ii) moderate soil fertilization, (iii) high soil fertilization (iv) and moderate above canopy fertilization. Results, 7 years into the experiment, do not show any effect of soil fertilization treatments on the monitored parameters, but show instead positive effects of the canopy fertilization on the allocation of resources to the canopy and on the production of leaf biomass, with values that in 2021 exceeded those observed in the control treatment by 0.72 Mg DM ha-1. The contribution of N due to atmospheric deposition does not seem to decrease the growth of pre-alpine beech forests in the short term, but could substantially alter their ecological dynamics.
INFC 2015. L’altra faccia della medaglia
Authors: Bottacci Alessandro , Clauser Fabio
Published: April 2022

I risultati dell’Inventario Nazionale delle Foreste e del Carbonio 2015 (INFC, 2015), presentati recentemente da CREA e Arma dei Carabinieri (De Laurentis et al., 2021), anche se con ben sei anni dai rilievi, hanno suscitato un’onda di consenso e di entusiasmo in molti ambienti sia tecnici che politici.  Il 7 aprile scorso il Ministro per le Politiche Agricole, Alimentari e Forestali Stefano Patuanelli, probabilmente venuto a conoscenza in anteprima dei risultati positivi dell’Inventario, auspicava un incremento dei prelievi di legno nei boschi italiani, al fine di ridurre l’importazione di questa materia prima necessaria per l’industria manifatturiera nazionale. Molte altre voci si sono levate a sottolineare la nuova e inattesa ricchezza delle foreste italiane, improvvisamente liberatesi dalla morsa della povertà, che le aveva attanagliate per secoli e che aveva fatto affermare all’allora Direttore generale delle Foreste Alfonso Alessandrini che l’Italia è un Paese ricco di boschi poveri (Alessandrini, 1990). La conclusione, a cui da più parti si giunge, è che, essendo più ricchi, i nostri boschi possono essere utilizzati in misura maggiore e guai se qualcuno propone di continuare con una politica di risparmio, volta ad incrementare la provvigione unitaria e la superficie boscata nazionale.

Normatieve professionalisering: Over het ‘doen van waarden ’, ‘messy business’ en het gebruik van spiegels Productgroep Goed werk 2008 € 3,90 DELEN: Abonneeprijs: € 1,56 Omschrijving Ruim een decennium geleden is een nieuw begrip gelanceerd, als tegenhanger voor de steeds grotere nadruk op doelrationeel handelen in beroepen in de gezondheidszorg , de welzijnssector en het onderwijs . Dit begrip is ‘normatieve professionaliteit ’ en vindt haar oorsprong in kritisch humanistische tradities waarin veel aandacht is voor reﬂ exief hande- len, ethiek en maatschappelijke betrokkenheid. Met de ontwikkeling van dit begrip trachtte een groep van medewerkers van de Universiteit voor Humanistiek, de Katholieke Th eolo- gische Faculteit te Utrecht en het toenmalige Nederlands Instituut voor Zorg en Welzijn uitdrukking te geven aan de menselijke, subjectieve en morele kant van het beroepsmatig handelen, een kant die niet zo gemakkelijk is te vangen in woorden en methodische processen, maar veelal impliciet tot uitdrukking komt in de houding van de professional en de afwegingen die deze maakt in de relatie met de cliënt.
Normatieve professionaliteit en normatieve professionalisering. Een pleidooi voor conceptuele verdieping
Authors: van den Ende Tonja , Kunneman Harry
Published: April 2022

Publicaties over normatieve professionaliteit vinden veelal hun basis in de Habermassiaanse tegenstelling tussen systeem en leefwereld . Hoewel deze indeling bijzonder vruchtbaar is gebleken, leidt hij ook tot een idealisering van de leefwereld als het morele domein bij uitstek. Dit hoofdstuk laat de morele ambivalentie van beide domeinen zien en tilt daarmee het begrip ‘normatieve professionaliteit ’ boven de indeling uit. Met behulp van een casus over humanistisch geestelijk verzorgenden binnen de krijgsmacht wordt deze visie verhelderd.
Post-professionaliteit?
Authors: Meij Ruud
Published: April 2022

In deze bundel wordt gezocht naar nieuwe manieren om professioneel handelen in te richten of te benoemen, met behoud van de zelfstandigheid en dienstbaarheid die de professies vanouds kenmerkten. Daarin staan morele overwegingen op de voorgrond. Het is de vraag of behalve de zelfstandigheid en de moraal van de beroepsbeoefenaars ook niet hun kennis ter discussie staat. In dit hoofdstuk wordt de dringende vraag gesteld naar de grondslagen van de kennis in professionele praktijken. De inbedding van de academische wetenschap is geen garantie voor goed werk. Daardoor komt het professionele oordelen in het brandpunt te staan. Het onderzoek van het oordelen biedt een ander perspectief op de rationaliteit van het professionele handelen, de morele legitimiteit van professional en diens autonomie . Professioneel handelen wordt terecht publiekelijk aan de orde gesteld.
Luisterend advies

Published: April 2022

Consultants worden doorgaans gezien als hulpkrachten van de manager . Ze helpen de organisatie verbeteren. Daarmee passen ze zich aan het denken van de organisatie aan en kunnen geen zelfstandige gesprekspartners meer zijn die het denken van de manager aanmoedigen. Met verwijzing naar grote fi losofen probeert dit hoofdstuk advieswerk te plaatsen als een bijzondere houding, namelijk die van de aandachtige, maar ook vrijmoedige gesprekspartner, die uitnodigt tot zelfonderzoek . Daarvoor zijn eerder morele kwaliteiten nodig dan organisatie- en managementdeskundigheid.
Ambtenaren als publieke professionals
Authors: Karssing Edgar , Wirtz Raoul
Published: April 2022

Aan het werk van ambtenaren worden nieuwe eisen gesteld. Ze krijgen steeds meer beslissingsruimte en daarmee professionaliseert hun beroep. ‘Ambtelijke loyaliteit’ als uitgangspunt voor de beoordeling van hun handelen komt daarmee onder druk te staan. En ook de invulling van integriteit met ‘onkreukbaarheid ’ is te beperkt. Het gaat er niet alleen om wat ontoelaatbaar is binnen een ambt, maar ook wat passend is. De klassieke waarborgen tegen ambtelijke willekeur behoeven daarmee ook herziening. Het laatste deel van het hoofdstuk verkent horizontale verantwoordingsmechanismen als aanvulling of alternatief voor de gebruikelijke verticale verantwoording .

Published: April 2022

This study examined residents’ involvement in environmental sanitation in Ilesa, Nigeria. Using multistage sampling, six political wards were selected: three from the high-density area, two from the medium-density area, and one from the low-density area. In all 300 copies of the questionnaire were administered. Data obtained were analysed using percentages and the Pearson correlation. This was with a view to suggesting policy response capable of enhancing healthy environment in the city and others with similar background. Information on the kind of toilet available revealed that 50.9% used flush toilet, 30.1% used pit latrine while 19.0% had no toilet. Likewise, there is paucity of public toilet in the city as 5.0% of the residents claimed availability of public toilet in their neighbourhood while 95.0% said public toilet was not available in their neighbourhood. Furthermore, the agencies responsible for environmental management were found to be wanting in some key functions with implications for healthy living in the area. Based on the findings, policy recommendations are proffered to enhance environmental friendliness in the city.

Published: April 2022

ICT has led to innovations in various sectors of the economy, including cooperative societies. As a result of innovation, several cooperative systems have been developed, but they do not adequately and effectively meet the needs of various cooperative societies. In addition, their process framework does not embed a generic approach such that the peculiarities of different cooperative can be catered for. Therefore, this paper presents a generic systems process framework for the development of cooperative system using Goal-driven Development Process (GDP). The GDP draws from the principle of an iterative and incremental model with top-down and bottom-up convergence approach for the identification of goals and implementation. HTML and CSS was used to implement the front-end while the back end was implemented using PHP and MySQL. The system was evaluated by 24 stakeholders across 4 cooperative societies. The result showed 71.67% overall reaction to the software, 73.54% screen, 68.13% terminology, and system information, 67.01% learning, and 71.5% system capability with overall evaluation of approximately 70.4% user’s satisfaction. Thus, the research presents a generic process framework that adequately captures the peculiarities of cooperative societies that software engineers will find useful in the development of cooperative software irrespective of the size and the complexity.

Published: April 2022

Despite the undeniable contribution of the computerized inventory management in hospital pharmacy and the increasing performance of storage facilities, the practice has revealed several shortcomings and difficulties in terms of stock management. The aim of this work is to suggest two organizational approaches that result from a long experience over five phases, which benefited from the commitment of our hospital top management. It’s about the Address-Position Code (APC) and the Internal Customer-Supplier System (ICSS). These two approaches allow us optimizing stock management and securing pharmaceutical products while improving their availability for the benefit of their users. Thus, they could be applicable in other similar structures to master pharmaceutical products flow and stock management.

Published: April 2022

Evictions are still one of the methods used by the government in the context of land acquisition for development, especially for people who do not have land ownership rights documents but residents have controlled the land as land for residence for a long time. Protection of the right to adequate housing is one of the human rights that must be protected, because this right is also related to guaranteeing the sustainability of human life. This study focuses on the issue of the impact of evictions on the protection of the right to adequate housing for residents in RT/RW 03/03 Batu Ceper, Tangerang as residents affected by eviction due to development. Examining the responsibility of the Tangerang City government in providing protection to guarantee the survival of the affected residents through the provision of adequate housing. The research method used is juridical-empirical. The results showed that the Tangerang City Government provided Rusunawa to affected residents for relocation but the residents refused, this is because the appointment of the Rusunawa was done unilaterally by the government so that they still did not pay attention to the standards for providing adequate housing according to human rights standards consisting of aspects of availability, aspects of affordability of costs and aspects of location. Therefore, it is hoped that the local government before carrying out an eviction needs to involve the participation of the affected community to identify the needs of the residents regarding the fulfillment of replacement housing in order to ensure the protection of the survival of the residents after they have been evicted.
Modified MPPT based Grid Connected Solar PV System with Improved Power Quality
Authors: P Mammuthu , Gopalakrishnan V.
Published: April 2022

The power demand in the world is growing at a drastic rate. Two drivers that stimulate energy consumption are emerging countries' technological economic progress and population increase. Photovoltaic energy generation is one of the most environmental friendly methods of energy creation. PV systems have recently seen an increase in demand due to the fact that they create electricity without harming the environment by directly converting solar energy into electricity. PV works at its highest power point, which is dependent on irradiance and temperature, to attain maximum efficiency. Since solar irradiance and solar temperature fluctuate over time, a photovoltaic system capable to track the MPP must be designed to generate more energy. This project introduces a novel solar panel control method known as Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), wherein the suggested technique employs Variable Step Size P&O (VSS P&O) MPPT to enhance the transient responsiveness. The step size is automatically adjusted with respect to the point of operation. Simulations utilising MATLAB/ Simulink software are used to assess the suggested method's performance.

Delegating Peace Enforcement Missions- But to Whom? What the U.N.'s Recent Recommendation Reveals About Today's Crisis in Legitimate Actors for Robust Peace Operations
Authors: Tawfik Karima
Published: April 2022

This Essay argues that in assessing whether or not to move towards the U.N. panel’s proposed model that champions regional actors and ad hoc coalitions over the U.N. itself, the international community must weigh the marginal costs and benefits of this plan. This essay follows the U.N. panel’s call for the international community to derive lessons from the past by examining three case studies where regional actors and ad hoc coalitions, rather than the U.N., have embarked on peace enforcement missions. It argues that if the international community chooses to follow the U.N. panel’s recommendation on deferring to regional actors or ad hoc coalitions, it should prepare for fewer peace enforcement operations, of shorter duration, and at times motivated by regional politicking. The international community should also be aware that the benefits of the panel’s recommendation—swift and decisive action and a somewhat increased ability for the U.N. to adhere to its principles of consent, impartiality, and nonuse of force—will be counter-balanced by fewer controls on regional actors’ profiteering and human rights abuses and a lack of guarantee as to the length of the mission.

METONYMY OF THE WORD ‘INDONESIA’ IN PHRASES ‘PROUD OF INDONESIA’ USED ON FACEBOOK
Authors: Jennifer Jennifer , Putro Paulus Tri Nugroho , Adi Victory Cahya
Published: April 2022

Simply defined, metonymy is a phenomenon in which two things are associated, so that one thing stands for the other, i.e. the source stands for the target. (Evans and Green, 2006, p. 314; Barcelona, 2003) The example from Evans and Green (2006, p.  312) is “England beat Australia in the 2003 rugby World Cup ?nal.” In that example, England and Australia stand for their own national football teams. The example is whole-for-part metonymy. Generally classified, the types of metonymy are whole for part and part for whole. (Barcelona, 2003, p. 239) What it means by “whole for part” is a general thing represents a specific thing. It goes the other way around for “part for whole”. As everyone uses metonymy very often, it is everyone’s awareness towards metonymy that should be increased. Metonymy is a powerful tool (Guan, 2009, p.  179). It is a “cognitive tool for people’s conceptualization of the world” (Guan, 2009, p.  179) and particularly “for guiding inferencing in the interpretation of spoken discourse” (Kriskovic & Tominac, 2009, p.  50).

THE IMPACT OF SELF-MONITORING ON STUDENTS’ CLASSROOM PARTICIPATION: THE CASE STUDY OF STUDENTS OF ENGLISH IN MOHAMED FIRST UNIVERSITY, OUJDA
Authors: El Boubekri Abdellah , Benyahia Moad
Published: April 2022

Self-monitoring is an intriguing psychological construct that has been receiving much attention from the part of the researchers in a wide range of disciplines. At its core rests the proposition that individuals have the ability to control their expressive behavior, and that they vary in the extent of doing so. This difference results in different outcomes regarding how people behave in their social interactions. Since its inception in the 1970s, myriad articles were written on self-monitoring, and many studies were conducted to explore its effects on people’s performance in a variety of contexts; this comprises schools, universities and hospitals, for example. The paper aimed to explore the influence of self-monitoring on students’ classroom participation, since no study has ever been conducted in this regard. To attain this aim, 121 of students of English in Mohamed First University in Oujda were selected to participate in this study. The results have shown that self-monitoring indeed affects students’ classroom participation. The difference between students who are high self-monitors and those who are low self-monitors, which is manifested in how they think and behave and on which basis they do so, accounts for their differing performance related to the various aspects of classroom participation.
The importance of targeting signalling mechanisms of the SLC39A family of zinc transporters to inhibit endocrine resistant breast cancer
Authors: Samuel Jones , Georgia Farr , Thirayost Nimmanon , Silvia Ziliotto , Julia M.W. Gee , Kathryn M. Taylor
Published: April 2022

Aim: Zinc is a key secondary messenger that can regulate multiple signalling pathways within cancer cells, thus its levels need to be strictly controlled. The Zrt, Irt-like protein (ZIP, SLC39A) family of zinc transporters increase cytosolic zinc from either extracellular or intracellular stores. This study examines the relevance of zinc transporters ZIP7 and ZIP6 as therapeutic targets in tamoxifen resistant (TAMR) breast cancer.

Methods: A series of in vitro assays, including immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, flow cytometry, and western blotting were used to evaluate levels and activity of ZIP7 and ZIP6 in models of TAMR and sensitive (MCF-7) breast cancer. Analyses of these transporters in the clinical setting were performed using publicly available online resources: Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA)2 and Kaplan-Meier Plotter (KmPlot).

Results: Both total and activated levels of ZIP7 were significantly elevated in TAMR cells versus responsive MCF-7 cells. This was accompanied by an associated increase in free cytoplasmic zinc leading to amplification of downstream signals. Consistent with our proposed model, activated ZIP6 levels correlated with mitotic cells, which could be efficiently inhibited through use of our anti-ZIP6 monoclonal antibody. Mitotic inhibition translated to impaired proliferation in both models, with TAMR cells displaying increased sensitivity. Analysis of matched tumour and normal breast samples from patients revealed significant increases in both ZIP7 and ZIP6 in tumours, as well as family member ZIP4. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that high ZIP7 levels correlated with decreased overall and relapse-free survival (RFS) of patients, including patient groups who had received systemic endocrine therapy or tamoxifen only. In contrast, high ZIP6 levels were significantly linked to improved overall and RFS in all patients, as well as RFS in patients that received systemic endocrine therapy.

Conclusions: TAMR cells displayed increased activity of both ZIP7 and ZIP6 transporters compared to anti-hormone responsive cells, suggesting their potential as novel therapeutic targets following development of resistant disease.
Assessing the Legality of the Abdication of Nicholas II
Authors:   Yaroslavl State Technical University, Diunov Mikhail Yu.
Published: April 2022

This article studies the historical and legal aspects of the abdication of Nicholas II. It examines the question of whether his declaration of abdication met the requirements of the legislation of that time and what violations, if any, were committed during its drafting. The paper analyses the laws of the Russian Empire stipulating the powers of the emperor and the State Duma as well as describes the situation in Russia after the Manifesto of October 17, 1905 – a precursor to the Empire’s first Constitution – was issued. As a result, the emperor’s power to change legislation was significantly limited by both the Manifesto and the Russian Constitution of April 23, 1906. Further, the paper studies the legal aspect of the abdication, as well as the possibility of abdicating in favour of a certain candidate: Tsesarevich Alexei or Grand Duke Michael. The author claims that, since the Russian Constitution of 1906 had no provision for abdication of the ruling monarch, this could only be implemented through adopting a new fundamental law. Moreover, an abdication on behalf of the heir (Tsesarevich Alexei) was also impossible from the legal point of view, the only legitimate course of action being to follow the Law of Succession of 1797. The abdication in favour of Grand Duke Michael is seen as illegal due to the fact that in this case the Law of Succession of 1797 with subsequent amendments was violated. This allows us to assume that the document of abdication was drawn up by a group of conspirators who had been preparing a coup d’etat. In addition, a comparison is made between the process of abdication of Nicholas II and a similar precedent in the British history of the 20th century, when the abdication of King Edward VIII was formalized.
The Antonymic Paradigm of Phraseological Somatisms of the English and German Languages (Exemplified by Phraseological Units with the Semantics of Speech Activity)
Authors:   Moscow Region State University, Guseva Alla E. , Mal’tsev Mark A. , Shabanova Veronika P.
Published: April 2022

This paper studies English and German phraseological units with somatic components, taking into account one of the aspects of systemic paradigmatic relations of phraseological units, namely, antonymy. Phraseological units expressing human speech activity are analysed in both languages. Somatic phraseological units are most interesting linguistic phenomena; many linguists have been studying them. This research is important and relevant due to the need for a detailed study into the paradigmatic relations of English and German phraseological units with somatic components from the perspective of the anthropocentric approach, which allows us to identify the similarities and differences between the two linguistic worldviews. Within the framework of this research, the descriptive and the comparative methods were used, as well as the method of component analysis. In addition, author’s classification (A.E. Guseva) of phraseological antonyms is presented. The main antonymic chains of German and English phraseological units containing somatisms associated with speech activity were identified; a quantitative analysis of the fullness of these chains was carried out, indicating the specific features of the linguistic worldviews under study. Having compared English and German somatic phraseological units, we revealed a number of common features, which indicates similarity of the conceptual spheres of the two nations. Further, structural similarities between English and German units under study were established. In terms of theoretical significance, this research enhances our insight into the similarities and differences between German and English phraseological units with various somatic components; the practical importance is determined by the possibility of creating a fragment of а thesaurus of German and English phraseological units with somatic components.
Gender Specifics of the Grammatical Component of the Linguistic Personality of the Local Politician (Based on the Speeches of Vologda Region Politicians)
Authors:   Cherepovets State University, Neklyudova Evgeniya A.
Published: April 2022

This article dwells on issues related to the grammatical component of the linguistic personality of the local politician. The study of the grammatical component allows us to identify the communicative competence of a politician (ability to correctly use grammatical forms and syntactic constructions in speech) as well as contributes to understanding the strategies and tactics of his/her speech behaviour. The analysis of the grammatical component of the speech of politicians is based on the theory of gender differences. Male and female speech behaviour is a relevant area of modern research and is of great value to science. Therefore, the main purpose of this paper was to determine the fundamental differences in the grammatical component of the speech of Vologda Region politicians, both men and women. A frequency analysis of words by part of speech was performed; the morphological and syntactic features of the speech of male and female politicians were identified. The results of the study demonstrate that both men and women in politics employ in their speech communicative strategies and tactics that are completely uncharacteristic of their gender. This finding overturns the existing stereotypes about male and female speech. The generally accepted scientific conclusions that women’s speech is more emotional and expressive, while men’s speech, conversely, is more abstract and less figurative were not confirmed. The practical results of the research indicate that, at the local level, male politicians make use of the female style of speech behaviour, while female politicians adopt the male model of speech behaviour.
Visual search guidance uses coarser template information than target-match decisions

When searching for an object, we use a target template in memory that contains task-relevant information to guide visual attention to potential targets and to determine the identity of attended objects. These processes in visual search have typically been assumed to rely on a common source of template information. However, our recent work (Yu et al., 2022) argued that attentional guidance and target-match decisions rely on different information during search, with guidance using a “fuzzier” version of the template compared with target decisions. However, that work was based on the special case of search for a target amongst linearly separable distractors (e.g., search for an orange target amongst yellower distractors). Real-world search targets, however, are infrequently linearly separable from distractors, and it remains unclear whether the differences between the precision of template information used for guidance compared with target decisions also applies under more typical conditions. In four experiments, we tested this question by varying distractor similarity during visual search and measuring the likelihood of attentional guidance to distractors and target misidentifications. We found that early attentional guidance is indeed less precise than that of subsequent match decisions under varying exposure durations and distractor set sizes. These results suggest that attentional guidance operates on a coarser code than decisions, perhaps because guidance is constrained by lower acuity in peripheral vision or the need to rapidly explore a wide region of space while decisions about selected objects are more precise to optimize decision accuracy.

The cultivation of character values ​​in schools is not without reason. The dilapidated character of the younger generation is the main problem. Character education is the responsibility of all parties, especially schools, as a vehicle for formal education. It is very important to instill character values ​​in children from an early age. MI Tarbiyatus Shibyan Brangkal Kepohbaru Bojonegoro as a basic education institution has implemented character values, especially religious characters through school programs. This study aims to find out what the values ​​of students' religious character are and how the methods used to instill students' religious character at MI Tarbiyatus Shibyan Brangkal Kepohbaru Bojonegoro. This study uses a type of qualitative research with a descriptive approach that has a model to describe and give meaning to the research results. The subject of the research is the method of inculcating the religious character of students and the values ​​of the religious character of students at MI Tarbiyatus Shibyan Brangkal Kepohbaru Bojonegoro. Data collection techniques using interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis uses two or three ways, namely, data presentation and drawing conclusions. And test the validity of the data using data triangulation. The results showed that the method used by the teacher in instilling religious character in the students of MI Tarbiyatus Shibyan Brangkal Kepohbaru Bojonegoro was three methods, namely the method of habituation (routine activities), the method of spontaneity, and the method of exemplary. However, the most effective method is habituation (routine activities). Although the religious character has been planted in students and the value of religious character possessed by students is good, especially the value of politeness, it is still not optimal among the values ​​of the religious character, which are as follows: getting used to doing 3S culture (smiles, greetings, and greetings), and shaking hands while kissing the teacher's hand.

In this paper, we define 2-quasi crossed modules of commutative algebras that requires less conditions than 2-crossed modules of commutative algebras. Moreover, we see that there exists a functorial relationship between these two notions. As an application, we define the coproduct of 2-crossed modules of commutative algebras.

Face recognition is one of the important applications of image processing, where we can scan the face of an individual using Open source Computer Vision library (OpenCV). Introducing this software had proliferated the digital market in security and safety. These days Facial recognition is used around the globe for multiple purposes like tracking & security. And it's not just for security and safety; facial recognition software is now being used in transportation, the hotel industry, and online banking. As it’s actively working in different domains according to their needs, our main goal is to introduce the facial recognition in attendance management system for universities using CC camera as the input medium. Using this software, we can note the number of students attended for the class without any manual entry. Our software uses facial recognition for identifying the candidates present and also gives the headcount of the students which makes the process very easy with precise attendance.

Published: April 2022

Cysts can occur in all body tissues, but cysts in organs other than the ovaries present symptoms more rapidly due to the resulting dysfunction. Ovarian cysts often do not cause complaints because they are not in contact with other organs and are typically detected during routine checks. Although cysts of various sizes are encountered, giant ovarian cysts are extremely rare. This report presents the case of a 36-year-old female patient admitted to our clinic with complaints of inguinal pain, abdominal swelling, and constipation. In the ultrasonographic examination, a giant cystic mass thought to originate from the left adnexal area, was observed. A decision to perform surgical operation for the left ovarian mass was made. The cystic mass, 15 × 20 cm in size and originating from the mesoileum, was excised with its wall after peroperative aspiration with a mini-phannensteil incision. Considering this case, we aimed to demonstrate that giant ovarian cysts can be confused with mesenteric cysts and that giant benign cysts can be excised with a mini-phannensteil incision.
