1. Fractures of the distal radius : radiological measurements and clinical outcome
Sammanfattning : The most common fracture is the distal radius fracture (DRF). Wrist function is of importance for the ability to perform activities of daily living, work-related tasks and leisure activities. Treatment generally focuses on restoring anatomical alignment and providing adequate rehabilitation. LÄS MER
2. Distal Radius Fractures : aspects on radiological and clinical outcome and evaluation of a new classification system
Sammanfattning : Distal radius fracture (DRF) is the most common fracture encountered in clinical practice. Every year, more than 20000 people in Sweden suffer from this injury. It has been shown that there is a correlation between malalignment and function following distal radial fractures and malunion may cause persistent pain and disability. LÄS MER
3. Distal radius fracture: Incidence, malunion and osteoarthritis
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
4. Factors in secondary prevention subsequent to distal radius fracture : Focus on physical function, co-morbidity, bone mineral density and health-related quality of life
Sammanfattning : In Sweden approximately 25000 distal radius fractures occur annually, which is 37 % of all fractures related to osteoporosis. In this thesis, risk factors for osteoporosis, bone mineral density (BMD) and health-related quality of life (the SF-36) were compared in patients who suffered a distal radius fracture after low energy trauma with a control group matched on the basis of age, gender, and municipality of residence.

5. Distal radius fractures AO type C : A clinical and radiographic investigation
Sammanfattning : The function of the hand is of substantial importance, and injuries have an impact on daily life. Distal radius fracture (DRF) is the most common fracture among adults. The annual incidence is 26 per 10,000 inhabitants, and the incidence is increasing because of an aging population. LÄS MER
