    Sammanfattning : Background: Abdominal wall hernia is a common surgically treated condition. Patients with primary umbilical hernia are operated with suture or mesh repair, but recurrence and complication rates have been debated.Larger abdominal wall hernias need implantation of reinforcing material for repair. Synthetic implants are dominating. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Vessel wall integrity : influence of genetics and flow

    Författare :Hanna Björck; Toste Länne; Per Eriksson; Sverker Jern; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of death worldwide. Underlying causes, such as atherosclerosis and hypertension, are associated with remodeling of the vessel wall ultimately leading to loss of structural integrity. There are a number of factors that can influence vascular remodeling and hence structural integrity. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Closing the abdominal wall in high-risk abdominal surgery

    Författare :Harald Söderbäck; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Incisional hernia and Wound dehiscence are potentially serious complications to midline incisions. Recent studies have shown that a meticulous suturing technique can reduce the rate of these complications significantly, but even with optimal technique there is 5-15% risk of abdominal wall complications.

  5. 4. Abdominal wall complications after urological surgery

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

    Sammanfattning : Background: Abdominal wall complications such as incisional hernia, bulging, and pain are known complications of surgery in the abdominal cavity. Most previous studies have been conducted on general surgical procedures, whereas few have been conducted on patients treated for urological cancer. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Regulation of aortic wall mechanics and stress : An experimental study in man

    Författare :Håkan Åstrand; Toste Länne; Matts Karlsson; Martin Björck; Linköpings universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : The abdominal aorta (AA) in man is a vulnerable artery prone to atherosclerosis as well as aneurysmatic dilation. The underlying aortic composition, mechanical properties as well as the mechanisms responsible for age-related changes and vascular disease are however largely unknown. LÄS MER
