Prof. MD. Bumin Degirmenci

During routine imaging for kidney stones, Professor Degirmenci noticed an atypical vascular pattern near my spine. Against conventional wisdom, he recommended further investigation, discovering an early-stage spinal arteriovenous fistula I was completely asymptomatic for. His 'incidentaloma' protocol turned what would have been a future neurological catastrophe into a simple outpatient procedure.

As a 72-year-old retired cartographer with a rare form of mesenteric panniculitis, I had been misdiagnosed for years. Professor Degirmenci didn't just read my scans, he reconstructed my abdominal vasculature in 3D during our consultation, using his screen to show me exactly how inflammation was distorting my anatomy. His visual explanation finally made sense of my chronic pain, and his targeted biopsy guidance led to proper treatment after a decade of suffering.

Our 8-year-old daughter, a budding gymnast, developed unexplained shoulder weakness. Multiple doctors dismissed it as growing pains. Professor Degirmenci performed a dynamic ultrasound while she mimicked her gymnastics moves, capturing how her scapula winged during specific motions. He discovered a rare neurovascular entrapment that only manifested under athletic stress, his findings allowed for minimally invasive surgery that saved her athletic dreams.

During a solo sailing trip across the Mediterranean, I developed severe neurological symptoms. Rushed to Medical Park Antalya, Professor Degirmenci was called in at 2 AM. Using portable MRI, he diagnosed cerebral venous sinus thrombosis from dehydration, but his genius was recognizing the specific flow patterns that indicated it was provoked by an undiagnosed prothrombotic condition, not just the sailing. He saved my life twice over.

As a 39-year-old professional pastry chef, I developed mysterious episodes of confusion. Professor Degirmenci suspected a dietary trigger and imaged my cerebral circulation after controlled exposure to different food additives. His innovative provocation imaging captured transient vasculitis triggered by a specific preservative, a diagnosis that eluded allergists and neurologists for years.
