1. 1. Biomolecular Aspects of Flexor Tendon Healing

   Författare :Maria Berglund; Monica Wiig; Olof Nilsson; Jan Fridén; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Flexor tendon healing; Growth factor; Metalloproteinase; Collagen; Proteoglycan; Myofibroblast; Hyaluronan synthase; Mast cell; Hand surgery; Handkirurgi; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

   Sammanfattning : Flexor tendon injuries in zone II of the hand (i.e. between the distal volar crease and the distal interphalangeal joint) can be costly for both the afflicted individual and society because of the high cost of a long rehabilitation period, complicated by tendon ruptures or scarring with adhesion formation, causing impaired range of motion.

3. 2. Intrasynovial flexor tendon injuries and repair

   Författare :Sara Edsfeldt; Monica Wiig; Kenneth Jonsson; Lars Adolfsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Complications after surgical repair of intrasynovial flexor tendon injuries in the hand occur despite advanced suture techniques and structured postoperative rehabilitation regimens. Early controlled tendon mobilization prevents adhesion formations and improves tendon healing as well as digit range of motion. LÄS MER

4. 3. Hand injuries - epidemiology, costs and outcome

   Författare :HansE Rosberg; Malmö Handkirurgi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Public health; epidemiology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi; Folkhälsa; epidemiologi; traumatology; orthopaedics; Surgery; outcome; health economy; flexor tendon injury; costs; Hand injury;

   Sammanfattning : Hand injuries have a profound impact not only on the patient’s activity of daily living and during leisure time but also on working capability. Such injuries may therefore also generate substantial costs for society in terms of sick-leave and treatment. LÄS MER

5. 4. Flexor tendon repair : rehabilitation adherence, outcome and complications

   Författare :Jonas Svingen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Flexor tendon injuries in the finger (zones 1 and 2) are problematic due to high rates of both rupture of the repair and of soft tissue adhesions resulting in poor range of motion. Both complications often result in reoperations and worse outcome of the injury. Rehabilitation after flexor tendon repair is a balancing act for the patient. LÄS MER
