  1. 1. Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer in western Sweden with a special focus on BRCA1 3171ins5 mutation

    Författare :Zakaria Einbeigi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :BRCA1 gene; breast neoplasm; ovarian neoplasm; hereditary; haplotype;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: To describe the phenotype and geographic distribution of the western Swedish founder mutation BRCA1 3171ins5, evaluate the reliability of mutation analysis of this mutation on archival material, analyse the haplotype for founder effects in families with BRCA1 3171ins5 mutation, estimate the age of this mutation and evaluate whether the occurrence of both breast and ovarian cancers in the same women may be a marker of a BRCA gene mutation. Materials and methods: The first study was based on 16 families with BRCA1 3171ins5 mutation and the second study was based on 18 families with the same mutation. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Risk Factors of Tumour Recurrence and Reduced Survival in Rectal Cancer

    Författare :Fredrik Jörgren; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Tumour Marker; Ezrin; Intestinal Perforation; Neoplasm Recurrence; Rectal Neoplasms; Local; Neoplasm Metastasis; Survival Rate; Risk Factors; Surgical; Anastomosis;

    Sammanfattning : In Sweden, 2000 patients are diagnosed with rectal cancer annually. In 1995, the Swedish Rectal Cancer Registry (SRCR) was launched to supervise and assure the quality of the management of rectal cancer. Advances in the management of rectal cancer have reduced the local recurrence (LR) rate and improved survival. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Patients' quality of life - Living with incurable cancer in palliative homecare

    Författare :Christina Melin-Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Advanced cancer; Assessment of quality of life a the end of life; AQEL; existential; hospital based palliative care; mixed methods; neoplasm; nursing; palliative care; quality of life; social life; support.; Advanced cancer;

    Sammanfattning : My clinical experience is that living in incurable cancer at the end of life is complex to patients and their families. Patients seem to have a rather good quality of life (QoL) but problems related to the progression of the illness constantly challenges and changes QoL. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Interstitial Laser Thermotherapy of Liver Tumours. Methodology and Application

    Författare :Páll Helgi Möller; Lund Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Resection; Liver; Neoplasm; Blood flow; Monitoring; Feedback control; Light penetration; Bare fibre; Sapphire probe; Nd:YAG laser; Interstitial thermotherapy; Hyperthermia; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

    Sammanfattning : Interstitial laser thermotherapy (ILT) is a method well suited for selective local destruction of malignant tumours. In the present work, a laser thermotherapy system based on feedback temperature control of energy delivery (through computerised feedback system) was developed. LÄS MER
