    Sammanfattning : Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a prevalent disease causing a substantial burden for the patient and the society. CRS is divided into CRS with (CRSwNP) and without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). LÄS MER

  5. 9. Aspects of participation in sigmoidoscopy screening for colorectal cancer

    Författare :Johannes Blom; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Population-based; colorectal; neoplasms; polyps; mass screening; sigmoidoscopy; patient participation; patient experience; follow-up studies; mortality; registers;

    Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer is an important health problem due to a high morbidity and mortality but it is curable at an early stage and is therefore ideal for screening. Population-based screening of the average risk population using fecal occult blood testing has been demonstrated to decrease mortality. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Hereditary colorectal cancer : predisposition and prevention

    Författare :Annelie Liljegren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Hereditary colorectal cancer; colonoscopy; adenoma; hyperplastic polyp;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the clinical results from a ten-year long follow-up surveillance program, including regular colonoscopy, for subjects (n=304, 780 colonoscopies) with increased risk of colorectal cancer, and on psychological aspects of the program. The cohort included persons with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) and persons assumed to be at increased risk of colorectal cancer because they had two (Two close relatives, TCR) or three or more relatives (Hereditary colorectal cancer, HCRC) afflicted with colorectal cancer.
