  1. 41. Tibial shaft fractures : An epidemiological and clinical study

    Författare :Abbas Emami; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Tibial fractures; epidemiology; external fixation; infected nonunions; ultrasoundstimulation; serum bone markers; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

    Sammanfattning : The epidemiological features of tibial shaft fractures were studied in Uppsala during two 5-year periods. The incidence decreased in men below 20 years of age in the late 1980's compared with the early 1970's (mostly due to a reduction of fractures sustained in traffic accidents), while the incidence increased in women over 80.

  3. 42. Arthroplasty in patients with femoral neck fractures

    Författare :Carl Johan Hedbeck; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to analyze hip function and the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with a displaced fracture of the femoral neck treated with a cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) or a hemiarthroplasty (HA), unipolar or bipolar. Moreover, the purpose was to analyze factors influencing the stability of the THA with special reference to the surgical approach and to evaluate the responsiveness of the Short Musculoskeletal Function Assessment (SMFA), i.

  4. 43. Clavicular Fractures, Epidemiology, Union, Malunion, Nonunion

    Författare :Jan Nowak; Lennart Hovelius; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Clavicular fractures; Clavicle epidemiology; Clavicle malunion; Clavicle nonunion; external fixation; prospective; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Surgery; kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : During a three-year period (1989-91), all patients living in the county of Uppsala, Sweden, with a radiographically verified fracture of the clavicle were prospectively, consecutively followed (n=245). The epidemiological study (I) was restricted to the two first years with 187 fractures in185 patients. LÄS MER

  5. 44. Phalangeal fractures : current treatments, complications and innovations

    Författare :Johanna von Kieseritzky; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Phalangeal fractures are common and most of them heal well without surgical intervention. However, the comminuted and displaced unstable fractures sometimes require surgery. There are many different surgical options available such as K-wires, screws of different kinds, plates and screws, and external fixations. LÄS MER

  7. 45. Surgical treatment of patients with displaced femoral neck fractures : aspects on outcome and selection criteria

    Författare :Richard Blomfeldt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :displaced cervical femoral neck fractures; internal fixation; arthroplasty; total hip replacement; bipolar hip replacement.;

    Sammanfattning : The optimal treatment for elderly patients with femoral neck fractures, i.e. internal fixation (IF), hemiarthroplasty (HA) or total hip replacement (THR), should be based on the individual patient's age, functional demands and risk profile. LÄS MER
