  1. 1. Periprosthetic femoral fracture after total hip replacement. Incidence, risk factors, and treatment

    Författare :Georgios Chatziagorou; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Periprosthetic fracture; Interprosthetic fracture; Incidence; Risk factors; Treatment; Outcome; Mortality;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the incidence of surgically treated periprosthetic femoral fractures (PPFF) in Sweden between 2001 and 2011, the demography of this population, risk factors that may contribute to its occurrence and the treatment of these fractures. All four studies in this thesis are observational and are based primarily on material from the Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register (SHAR) database. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : An elderly patient who sustains a hip fracture has increased morbidity and mortality. Scandinavia presents the highest incidence annually of hip fractures worldwide. Femoral neck fracture (FNF) of the hip accounts for 50% of all hip fractures in geriatric patients. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Post-operative periprosthetic femur fracture is a severe complication after total hip arthroplasty (THA).The incidence of periprosthetic femur fractures seems to be increasing because of several factors,including a growing population with THAs and an increasing life expectancy.

    Sammanfattning : Hip fractures are devastating for the individual and a substantial economic burden for society. The treatment for displaced femoral neck fracture is a choice between internal fixation, total hip arthroplasty and hemiarthroplasty. LÄS MER

  5. 5. 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
