  1. 1. Acute achilles tendon rupture. Evaluation of treatment and complications

    Författare :Katarina Nilsson-Helander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :achilles tendon rupture; re-rupture; ATRS; rupture; free flap; deep venous thrombosis; heel-rise work test; score; augmentation; movable brace;

    Sammanfattning : The overall purpose of this thesis was to evaluate the treatment of patients with an acute Achilles tendon rupture with regard to complications, function and patient-reported outcome. Moreover, the purpose was to develop and evaluate new outcome measurements... LÄS MER

  3. 2. Pedicled and free TRAM flaps in breast reconstructions : a comparative study

    Författare :Åsa Edsander-Nord; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :breast reconstruction; TRAM; pedicled flap; free flap; microdialysis; monitoring; flap circulation; flap metabolism; glucose; lactate; glycerol; abdominal muscles; trunk muscle strength; KIN-COM; quantitative sensory testing; tactile perception threshold; thermal perception threshold; breast volume; thermoplastic; quality of life; SF-36; esthetic evaluation; applanation tonometry;

    Sammanfattning : The transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) flap is frequently used when autologous tissue is desired for breast reconstruction, and it can be transferred pedicled or free. The pedicled TRAM flap is elevated as a lower transverse abdominal flap with the rectus abdominis muscle attached in the epigastric area, by which means the deep superior epigastric vessels nourish the flap.

  4. 3. Chronic Achilles tendon rupture - surgical reconstruction and post-operative outcomes

    Författare :Niklas Nilsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chronic Achilles tendon rupture; Semitendinosus graft; Tissue sample; Achilles tendon re-rupture; Surgical repair; Gastrocnemius aponeurosis free flap; Health economics; Patient-reported outcome measurements;

    Sammanfattning : When the treatment of Achilles tendon ruptures is delayed by more than 4 weeks, the rupture is classified as chronic. This thesis aims to examine the postoperative outcome of chronic Achilles tendon ruptures treated surgically in terms of long-term functional outcomes, patient-reported outcome measurements, biomolecular changes, and economic cost.

  5. 4. Microdialysis in reconstructive surgery : a clinical and experimental study focusing on monitoring flap metabolism and viability

    Författare :Jonas Röjdmark; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Microdialysis; monitoring; flap metabolism; glucose; lactate; glycerol; pyruvate; ischemia; reperfusion; arterial occlusion; venous occlusion; tissue necrosis; laser doppler flowmetry; fluorescein;

    Sammanfattning : When flap procedures are used to repair complex tissue wounds adequate flap circulation is of supreme importance. If the circulation is disturbed by either vascular occlusion, hemorrhage, or infection, delayed healing and flap necrosis may ensue. LÄS MER
