  1. 1. On the treatment of tibial fractures using the Ilizarov fixator

    Författare :Telmo Oliveira Ramos; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; tibial fracture; external fixation; load; EQ-5D; NHP; VAS; intramedullary nail; gait analysis; randomised study;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to analyse the results of the Ilizarov method in patients with different types of tibial fracture and compare them with conventional methods, in terms of primary union, complication rates, post-operative function, quality of life, and how the patients´ gait was affected during rehabilitation. Fifty-eight patients with isolated diaphyseal fractures (Study I) were randomised to treatment with either the Ilizarov method (IL) or locked intramedullary nailing (IM). LÄS MER

  2. 2. Trochanteric Hip Fractures Clinical Outcomes and the Cut-out Complication

    Författare :Alicja J. Bojan; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; trochanteric hip fracture; cut-out; intramedullary fixation; RSA; micromotion;

    Sammanfattning : The established treatment for trochanteric hip fractures is internal fixation, either intramedullary (nail) or extramedullary (plate). Approximately 10% of these patients suffer from mechanical complications, the most frequent one being perforation of the lag screw through the femoral head into the hip joint (cut-out). LÄS MER

  3. 3. Femoral shaft fractures in children and adolescents; stability, residual deformity and recovery of physical function

    Författare :Marianne Flinck; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Femoral fractures; Child; Treatment outcome; Leg length discrepancy; Elastic intramedullary nails; Biomechanics; Fracture fixation; Three-dimensional gait analysis; Function recovery;

    Sammanfattning : Femoral shaft fracture is the most common injury requiring hospital admission among children. The limited number of studies makes it challenging to provide accurate prognosis for recovery after femoral shaft fractures in children and adolescents. LÄS MER

  4. 4. ON ARTHRODESIS AND REPLACEMENT OF THE HUMAN ANKLE

    Författare :Thomas Anderson; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Osteoarthritis; Replacement; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; traumatologi; Kirurgi; ortopedi; Rheumatoid arthritis; Arthrodesis; Ankle;

    Sammanfattning : Of 30 primary ankle fusions in patients with osteoarthrosis, 25 ankles underwent clinical evaluation by two independent observers. In 29 cases, two independent radiologists, unanimously found 26 ankles to be radiographically fused, and three not fused. The consistency between the two orthopaedic surgeons evaluations was somewhat lower. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Tibial shaft fractures : An epidemiological and clinical study

    Författare :Abbas Emami; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Tibial fractures; epidemiology; external fixation; infected nonunions; ultrasoundstimulation; serum bone markers; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

    Sammanfattning : The epidemiological features of tibial shaft fractures were studied in Uppsala during two 5-year periods. The incidence decreased in men below 20 years of age in the late 1980's compared with the early 1970's (mostly due to a reduction of fractures sustained in traffic accidents), while the incidence increased in women over 80.
