Assoc. Prof. MD. M Emre Yegin Reviews

My 16-year-old son required complex chest wall reconstruction after a rare tumor resection left him with a significant deformity. Dr. Yegin collaborated with a biomedical engineer to create a custom 3D-printed titanium implant. What stood out was his focus on my son's psychological wellbeing, connecting him with a former patient who'd undergone similar surgery.

Our newborn son, born at 34 weeks, developed a rare congenital diaphragmatic hernia that wasn't detected prenatally. Dr. Yegin performed emergency surgery when he was just 48 hours old and 2.1kg. What amazed us was his 'gentle touch' technique using micro-instruments, and his daily 6 AM visits to the NICU to personally adjust our son's positioning for optimal lung development. Our son is now thriving at 8 months.

As a 14-year-old competitive gymnast, I suffered a traumatic spleen injury during a fall from the uneven bars. Dr. Yegin successfully performed a spleen-preserving surgery instead of removal, explaining how this would protect my future immunity. He coordinated with my sports physician for a phased return-to-sport protocol. I'm back competing at national level, with no restrictions.

Our 7-year-old daughter from rural Anatolia had a massive hydatid cyst occupying half her abdominal cavity. Dr. Yegin developed a unique 'cyst isolation' technique to prevent allergic complications during removal. He arranged accommodation for our family and provided illustrated storybooks in Turkish to explain the procedure to our daughter. She's now cyst-free and back in school.

Our premature twins both developed necrotizing enterocolitis simultaneously. Dr. Yegin performed life-saving surgeries 12 hours apart, using a novel 'staged intestinal preservation' approach. He created a detailed shared care plan with the neonatology team and provided us with a twin-specific feeding advancement protocol. Both are now growing appropriately at 6 months corrected age.

As a 12-year-old with Crohn's disease, I developed a complex enterocutaneous fistula that failed multiple medical treatments. Dr. Yegin performed a laparoscopic-assisted resection with a unique 'fistula pathway mapping' technique using intraoperative dye studies. His nutrition team designed a personalized elemental diet plan. I've been in remission for 18 months with normal growth.

Our 3-year-old swallowed multiple high-powered magnets that connected through intestinal walls. Dr. Yegin performed emergency laparoscopy using a magnetic retrieval system he helped develop. He then created a comprehensive home safety plan for us and connected us with a childproofing specialist. Our son recovered completely in just 4 days.

My 9-year-old daughter had a massive ovarian teratoma discovered incidentally. Dr. Yegin performed ovary-preserving surgery using intraoperative ultrasound to guide precise tumor excision. He arranged fertility preservation counseling appropriate for her age and provided us with long-term follow-up plans. Her ovarian function remains completely normal.

A 5-day-old infant with esophageal atresia required complex reconstruction. Dr. Yegin performed a thoracoscopic repair using his modified 'traction technique' to achieve primary anastomosis without tension. He developed a specialized feeding protocol and trained us in specific positioning techniques. Our baby is now eating normally at 10 months.

Our 11-year-old son suffered a severe blunt abdominal trauma in a car accident with multiple organ injuries. Dr. Yegin led a damage control surgery, prioritizing organ preservation over quick fixes. His 'staged reconstruction' approach over three procedures saved our son's spleen, part of his pancreas, and kidney function. Recovery was gradual but complete.

A 15-year-old refugee patient with untreated Hirschsprung's disease presented in critical condition. Dr. Yegin performed a single-stage pull-through procedure despite nutritional challenges. He secured humanitarian funding for the surgery and arranged post-operative housing for the family through hospital connections. The patient now has normal bowel function.

My 6-year-old developed a rare mesenteric cyst causing recurrent volvulus. Dr. Yegin performed complete cyst excision with meticulous preservation of intestinal blood supply. He created an animated video showing how the surgery would work, which completely alleviated my daughter's fears. She returned to full activity in 3 weeks.

A newborn with cloacal malformation required multidisciplinary reconstruction. Dr. Yegin coordinated a single combined surgery with urology and gynecology colleagues, minimizing anesthesia exposure. He established a lifelong follow-up protocol and created a patient passport detailing the surgical anatomy for future caregivers. The child now has good functional outcomes.

Our 13-year-old daughter with cerebral palsy developed severe gastroesophageal reflux unresponsive to medication. Dr. Yegin performed a laparoscopic fundoplication with gastrostomy, modifying the technique to accommodate her neurological condition. He trained our home nursing team in specialized feeding protocols. Her nutritional status and quality of life improved dramatically.

An 8-year-old presented with a retroperitoneal tumor encasing major vessels. Dr. Yegin performed complete resection using intraoperative navigation and vascular bypass techniques. He organized a tumor board with international experts preoperatively and arranged genetic testing that revealed a hereditary syndrome, leading to family screening. The patient remains disease-free at 2 years.
