    Sammanfattning : Subglottic stenosis (SGS) is a rare condition of upper airway obstruction transforming tracheal mucosa below the vocal folds into scar tissue. It is primarily caused by laryngotracheal trauma and infrequent autoimmune conditions ofsystemic inflammation. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Transcatheter Arterial Embolization in the Management of Life Threatening Bleeding Applied in Upper Gastrointestinal and Post Partum Bleedings

    Författare :Lars-Gunnar Eriksson; Rickard Nyman; Sven Gustavsson; Krasnodar Ivancev; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Radiology; Post partum hemorrhage; Upper peptic ulcer bleeding; Transcatheter arterial embolization; Endoscopic treatment; Endoscopic marking; Metallic clip; Radiologisk forskning;

    Sammanfattning : Transcatheter Arterial Embolization (TAE) is a method in which a catheter is inserted into an artery under fluoroscopy guidance. By using material that creates a thrombus, inserted through the catheter, the artery can be occluded and the bleeding stopped. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Background: Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a pathological back-flow of urine from the bladder to the ureter and renal pelvis. VUR is associated with an increased risk of urinary tract infections (UTI) and renal damages. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Atrial fibrillation : endoscopic ablation and postoperative studies

    Författare :Espen Fengsrud; Anders Ahlsson; Anders Englund; Alexander Wahba; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Atrial fibrillation; Bypass surgery; Cerebral ischemia; Follow-up studies; Survival; Anticoagulation; Ablation; Endoscopy; Randomized trial; Implantable loop recorder;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk of stroke, heart failure and cardiovascular death. Initial treatment focuses on rhythm or rate control and anticoagulation after risk assessment. Catheter abla-tion (CA) is an option in highly symptomatic patients but is less effective in long-standing persistent AF(LSPAF). LÄS MER

  7. 5. Hydrocephalus in children. Epidemiology and outcome

    Författare :Eva-Karin Persson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Prevalence; Epidemiology; Hydrocephalus; MMC; Treatment; Outcome;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: To analyse trends in the live-birth prevalence of infantile hydrocephalus and hydrocephalus associated with myelomeningocele (MMC) during the period 1989-2002 and to study the outcome in terms of learning disability, cerebral palsy, epilepsy and visual deficits. Another objective was to explore motor function and disability profiles in various aetiological and gestational-age subgroups and to see whether treatment complications and neuroradiological findings correlate with outcome.
