  1. 16. Fractures of the distal radius : epidemiology, treatment and outcome assessment

    Författare :Maria Wilcke; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to increase scientific knowledge of the most common fracture, namely the distal radius. Our understanding of this fracture is still limited, but every year in Sweden over 20,000 patients suffer from this injury. The fracture may cause persistent pain and disability for the patients, not to mention substantial costs to society. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Distal radius fractures : epidemiology and aspects of surgical management

    Författare :Johanna Rundgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are the most common fractures treated by physicians. About 20% of all DRFs are treated surgically. The main surgical methods are volar plate fixation, external fixation and percutaneous pinning. The spectrum and frequency of associated complications vary considerably between surgical methods.

  4. 18. Treatment of distal radius fractures : clinical outcome, regional variation and health economics

    Författare :Jenny Saving; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A distal radius fracture (DRF) remains the most common fracture encountered in health care. DRFs have traditionally been treated with a plaster or surgically with percutaneous methods. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Injectable Calcium Phosphate Bone Substitute In Distal Radial Fractures

    Sammanfattning : Fractures of the distal end of the radius are common and occur in many different forms. The long-term results after conservative treatment of fracture of the distal end of the radius in younger adults with special reference to degenerative changes and function are investigated in 76 patients (Paper I).

  7. 20. Fractures of the Distal Radius - Incidence, treatment and outcome

    Författare :Elisabeth Brogren; Malmö Handkirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; distal radius fracture; disability; DASH; malunion; natural course;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Fractures of the distal radius are common injuries that may cause persistent disability and pain. This thesis prospectively investigates the incidence and characteristics of distal radius fractures, the relationship between fracture malunion and disability and the natural course of patient-reported outcome after fracture in a well-defined population in Northeastern Scania, Sweden.
