  1. 1. On customization of orthopedic implants - from design and additive manufacturing to implementation

    Författare :Marie Cronskär; Mats Tinnsten; Mikael Bäckström; Lars-Erik Rännar; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Patient-specific implants; Additive manufacturing; Electron beam melting; Multibody musculoskeletal analysis; Orthopedic implants; Clavicle; Finite element analysis; Computer aided design; Osteosynthesis plate; Hip stem implants;

    Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis is devoted to studying the possibilities of using additive manufacturing (AM) and design based on computed tomography (CT), for the production of patient-specific implants within orthopedic surgery, initially in a broad perspective and, in the second part of the thesis focusing on customized clavicle osteosynthesis plates. The main AM method used in the studies is the Electron Beam Melting (EBM) technology. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Aseptic Loosening of Orthopedic Implants : Osteoclastogenesis Regulation and Potential Therapeutics

    Författare :Mehdi Amirhosseini; Anna Fahlgren; Göran Andersson; Teun J. de Vries; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Aseptic loosening is the main cause of failure of orthopedic prostheses. With no pharmaceuticals to prevent or mitigate periprosthetic bone degradation, a surgery to replace the loose implant with a new one is the only choice to restore patients’ function. LÄS MER

  5. 4. On hydroxyapatite modified peek implants for bone applications

    Författare :Pär Johansson; Malmö högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dental Implants; Dentala implantat;

    Sammanfattning : People are living longer today than ever before, and the number of older adults will increase exponentially over the next coming years. However, that does not necessarily mean that they are living healthier. LÄS MER

  7. 5. On titanium release from dental implants and the inflammatory response

    Författare :Mattias Pettersson; Margareta Molin Thorén; Anders Johansson; Ann Wennerberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; titanium; inflammation; dental implants; peri-implantitis; odontologi; Odontology;

    Sammanfattning : In dentistry, dental implants have become a standard treatment for single tooth loss and partial and total edentulism since their introduction by P-I Brånemark in the 1960s. Long-term follow-up studies have shown that dental implantation is a predictable treatment, with an overall implant survival over ninety-five percent. LÄS MER
