    Sammanfattning : Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) frequently occur after major orthopaedic surgery. The clinical assessment of DVT and PE is unreliable and most cases are asymptomatic. However, even in asymptomatic DVTs, the risk for a PE is considerable. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : An elderly patient who sustains a hip fracture has increased morbidity and mortality. Scandinavia presents the highest incidence annually of hip fractures worldwide. Femoral neck fracture (FNF) of the hip accounts for 50% of all hip fractures in geriatric patients. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Aspects on treatment of femoral neck fractures : studies on treatment methods, surgical approach and external validity

    Sammanfattning : Femoral neck fracture (FNF) is a great challenge for today´s health care and is associated with high mortality and morbidity in the elderly.  In the short term several studies in the literature have demonstrated improved hip function, quality of life and fewer re-operations in elderly patients treated with total hip arthroplasty (THA) instead of internal fixation (IF).
