   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; colorectal cancer; epidural analgesia; local anaesthetics; colon cancer cells; inflammation; postoperative complications; pain; recurrence; disease-free survival; mortality;

   Sammanfattning : Epidural analgesia (EA) with local anaesthetics and opioids is used for pain management after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery. In recent years, a possible beneficial effect of EA on cancer recurrence and survival after surgery has been proposed. LÄS MER

3. 12. Colorectal Liver Metastases. Aspects on Diagnosis and Surgical Treatment

   Författare :Björn O B Ohlsson; Lund Kirurgi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; carcinoembryonic antigen; fine-needle aspiration cytology; intraoperative ultrasonography; computed tomography; dearterialization; liver resection; Colorectal cancer; liver metastases; follow-up; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

   Sammanfattning : Liver is the most common site of dissemination in colorectal cancer, and untreated liver metastases are associated with a poor prognosis. The main reason for trying to detect liver metastases early is that liver resection offers a chance for cure in selected patients. LÄS MER

4. 13. Adhesive small bowel obstruction: aspects on epidemiology, treatment, costs and prevention

   Författare :Thorbjörn B. Sakari; Filip Sköldberg; Urban Karlbom; Wilhelm Graf; Per J Nilsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; small bowel obstruction; adhesions; acute surgery; colorectal cancer; Surgery; Kirurgi;

   Sammanfattning : Small bowel obstruction (SBO) is a common and sometimes life-threatening clinical condition, usually caused by post-operative adhesions. The aims of this thesis were to investigate the outcome after SBO surgery (Paper I), cost of SBO surgery including follow-up (Paper II), incidence of SBO after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery (Paper III), and to assess the safety of using the adhesion preventing substance icodextrin in CRC surgery (Paper IV).

5. 14. Colorectal Cancer - Evaluation of MMP as a prognostic marker and a model for peritoneal response

   Författare :Andreas Jonsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Colorectal neoplasms; matrix metalloproteinases; colorectal surgery; survival; prognosis; peritoneum; peritoneal neoplasms;

   Sammanfattning : Background : There are about 6600 patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer in Sweden each year. Survival rates vary with cancer stage at diagnosis. The main treatment is surgery together with, in some cases, oncological treatment. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are deeply involved in the growth and spread of colorectal cancer tumours. LÄS MER

7. 15. Cytoreductive Surgery and Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Patients with Peritoneal Metastases from Colorectal Cancer : Aspects of loco-regional treatment outcome, patient selection, and chemo-sensitivity

   Författare :Peter H Cashin; Haile Mahteme; Wilhelm Graf; Peter Nygren; Frans Zoetmulder; Uppsala universitet; []
