  1. 36. Humeral shaft fractures : epidemiology outcome

    Författare :Radford Ekholm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Humeral shaft fractures account for 1-3% of all fractures and approximately 20% of all humeral fractures. Non-operative treatment with functional bracing has been regarded as the golden standard for treatment of closed humeral shaft fractures with studies reporting a high overall healing rate and an acceptable functional outcome.

  3. 37. Epidemiology, Radiology and Histology of Atypical Femoral Fractures : Development of understanding

    Författare :Jörg Schilcher; Per Aspenberg; Ingemar Ivarsson; Karl Michaëlsson; Olle Svensson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICINE;

    Sammanfattning : Bisphosphonates have been used successfully in the prevention of osteoporosis-related fractures for over two decades. Only recently an association between bisphosphonate use and femoral insufficiency fractures – atypical femoral fractures – has been found.Bone remodeling is necessary to maintain a healthy skeleton.

  4. 38. Bone Development and the Nervous System

    Författare :Gregor Sisask; Olof Nilsson; Anders Bjurholm; Kenneth B Jonsson; André Stark; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; Cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Innervation of bone influence bone modeling, growth and remodeling. Pro-inflammatory cytokines released after tissue trauma are recognized as neurotrophic factors as well as factors influencing bone formation. The Wnt signaling pathway, essential for cell migration during embryogenesis is found to influence bone formation during fracture healing. LÄS MER

  5. 39. Pelvic fractures : epidemiology and treatment

    Författare :Natalie Lundin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The epidemiology of pelvic and acetabular fractures has been sparsely described and up-to date information on incidence, demographic distributions and treatment are lacking. Surgical treatment of pelvic and acetabular fractures is often considered for patients after high-energy trauma and/or in acetabular fractures with intraarticular incongruency. LÄS MER

  7. 40. Complications in trochanteric and subtrochanteric femoral fractures

    Författare :Leif Mattisson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The hip fracture is a major public health problem. The majority of hip fracture patients are elderly with comorbidities and there is a strong association with osteoporosis, especially for the extracapsular (trochanteric and subtrochanteric) types of fractures. LÄS MER
