A 28-year-old competitive freediver from Bodrum presented with recurrent, severe abdominal pain only during deep dives. Dr. Gülcan discovered a rare case of mesenteric artery compression exacerbated by extreme pressure changes. He coordinated with hyperbaric specialists to design a conservative management plan involving pre-dive protocols and diaphragmatic training, allowing the patient to continue her sport at modified depths with complete symptom resolution.
A 72-year-old retired calligraphy master from Konya, with a lifelong history of consuming traditional iron-gall ink (for testing nibs), developed unexplained chronic diarrhea and weight loss. Dr. Gülcan identified a unique, low-grade heavy metal colitis from chronic ink ingestion. Treatment involved chelation therapy and dietary intervention. The patient's symptoms improved markedly, and he now uses synthetic ink for his craft.
A 19-year-old university student and champion e-sports athlete presented with crippling, post-prandial epigastric pain that coincided with major tournaments. Extensive workup revealed visceral hypersensitivity and severe functional dyspepsia triggered by adrenaline surges and poor tournament diet. Dr. Gülcan implemented a novel gut-directed hypnotherapy regimen combined with a structured nutritional plan, enabling the patient to compete pain-free.
A 45-year-old Syrian refugee and former mosaic artist, now working in a textile factory, was admitted with signs of liver failure. Dr. Gülcan diagnosed a toxic hepatitis from chronic, unrecognized exposure to azo dyes used in the factory, compounded by a silent hepatitis E infection. Treatment involved immediate removal from exposure, supportive care, and antiviral therapy. The patient made a slow but full recovery and was assisted in finding safer employment.
