   Sammanfattning : Aim: To investigate the prevalence of self-reported symptoms after pelvic radiation therapy among long-term gynecological cancer survivors, with special focus on pelvic bone pain, how it affects the daily life of the women and the relationship to absorbed doses. Methods: In an unselected, population-based study, gynecological cancer survivors from the Gothenburg and Stockholm regions, treated with pelvic radiation therapy between 1991 and 2003, were compared with a non-radiation-treated control population.

4. 13. Pelvic fractures : epidemiology and treatment

   Författare :Natalie Lundin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The epidemiology of pelvic and acetabular fractures has been sparsely described and up-to date information on incidence, demographic distributions and treatment are lacking. Surgical treatment of pelvic and acetabular fractures is often considered for patients after high-energy trauma and/or in acetabular fractures with intraarticular incongruency. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Pelvic cancer survivors struggle with life-long symptoms caused by radiotherapy. Many pelvic cancer survivors live with a constant fear of leaking faeces and the need to always have a toilet within reach. Some of these survivors are forced to retire early and live in social isolation. LÄS MER
