1. 1. Articulation and velopharyngeal function in patients with cleft lip and/or palate : Outcome predictors

   Författare :Åsa Okhiria; Daniel Nowinski; Yvonne Wren; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cleft lip and palate; cleft width; cleft type; surgical technique; articulation; velopharyngeal function; international adoption;

   Sammanfattning : Cleft lip and/or palate is the most common congenital craniofacial malformation, requiring multidisciplinary treatment, including surgery and often speech therapy. Palatal surgery restores the anatomical barrier between the oral and nasal cavities as well as the palatal function needed for normal speech. LÄS MER

3. 2. Popliteal Artery Aneurysm : Epidemiology, Surgical Management and Outcome

   Författare :Hans Ravn; Martin Björck; Anders Wanhainen; Torben V Schroeder; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Surgery; popliteal artery aneurysm; thrombolytic therapy; acute ischemia; surgical technique; long-term outcome; surveillance; Kirurgi;

   Sammanfattning : Even if popliteal artery aneurysm (PAA) is the most common peripheral aneurysm, no single surgeon or institution has enough patients to study this disease with appropriate scientific methods, and no population-based investigation exists. PAA epidemiology, treatment, management, and outcome were studied in a population-based study of 571 patients (717 legs) primarily operated on for PAAs and 100 episodes of preoperative thrombolysis in Sweden between 1987 and 2002.

4. 3. Treatment of abdominal and thoracic aortic aneurysms :  Aspects on epidemiology and surgical outcome

   Författare :Kim Gunnarsson; Kevin Mani; Jonas Eiberg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aortic aneurysm. Ruptured aortic aneurysm; Endovascular aneurysm repair; Open aortic repair; Aneurysm; Outcome; Surgery; Kirurgi;

   Sammanfattning : Aortic Aneurysm (AA) is a life-threatening condition when ruptured (RAA), requiring immediate repair for survival. Since the 50´s, open repair, replacing the diseased vessel with a prosthetic (synthetic) graft, has been the gold standard. LÄS MER

5. 4. Carotid Artery Stenosis : Surgical Aspects

   Författare :Björn Kragsterman; Håkan Pärsson; David Bergqvist; Thomas Mätzsch; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Surgery; carotid endarterectomy; carotid artery stenosis; carotid clamping; cerebral ischaemia; Kirurgi;

   Sammanfattning : Randomised controlled trials (RCT) have demonstrated a net benefit of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in stroke prevention for patients with severe carotid artery stenosis as compared to best medical treatment. Results in routine clinical practice must not be inferior to those in the RCTs. LÄS MER

7. 5. Surgical Treatment of Pelvic Ring Injuries and Acetabular Fractures : Aspects on Patient-reported Outcome

   Författare :Björn Hernefalk; Sune Larsson; Anna Tötterman; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pelvic ring injuries; acetabular fractures; patient.reported outcome; surgical treatment; PDI; SF-36; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim of the present thesis was to study the patient perspective on outcome following surgical treatment of pelvic ring injuries and acetabular fractures. All studies were based on patients treated for such injuries at the Department of Orthopaedics, Uppsala University Hospital, Sweden. LÄS MER
