Abstract

Objective: The presence of gastroparesis in patients with dyspepsia can be evaluated by gastric emptying scintigraphy. We aimed to evaluate gastroparesis with optimal solid gastric emptying scintigraphy and suboptimal liquid gastric emptying scintigraphy in euthyroid goiter patients with dyspepsia.

Methods: We included 67 patients diagnosed with euthyroid goiter with dyspepsia complaints. The patients did not use any medication and did not have any other chronic diseases. Solid and liquid gastric emptying scintigraphy was performed on all patients. In our retrospective study; the images were reevaluated. The region of interest was plotted on the area compatible with the stomach and timeactivity curves were obtained. The correlation of solid and liquid gastric emptying test results was evaluated.

Results: Twelve (18%) of the patients were male and the mean age of the patients was 64 (49-75). There is a correlation between solid and liquid gastric emptying scintigraphy (p< 0.0005, r: 0.0880). Solid gastric emptying time was prolonged in 27 patients (40%). Liquid gastric emptying was prolonged in 23 patients (34%). Solid gastric emptying was also prolonged in all patients with prolonged liquid gastric emptying.

Conclusion: According to the results of the optimal gastric emptying test performed with radio-labeled solid food. The rate of gastroparesis was low in our patient group with dyspepsia complaints. However, there is a correlation between the optimal test and suboptimal gastric emptying test results in our patient group. Liquid gastric emptying scintigraphy may be preferred in specific patient groups in case of suspected gastroparesis because of its easy application and short duration.
