1. Studies of barrier function in patients with ulcerative colitis and pouchitis
Sammanfattning : Background and aim: The cause of ulcerative colitis (UC) is largely unknown. However, there is a presumed genetic component to susceptibility and altered intestinal barrier function has been implicated in the pathophysiology of ulcerative colitis. LÄS MER
2. Pelvic pouch in ulcerative colitis : surgical refinement and long-term mucosal outcome
Sammanfattning : The surgical technique in performing restorative proctocolectomy has been extensively developed since its introduction in 1978. Recurrent attacks of inflammation in the neorectal ileal pouch mucosa, pouchitis, well known also from the Kock pouches, occur in a substantial number of the patients, and constitute the major clinical long-term problem observed.

3. Perinuclear Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Sammanfattning : Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCAs) are a group of autoantibodies which are specific for granulocyte antigens. By indirect immunofluorescence (llF) on ethanol-fixed neutrophils, ANCAs can be divided into two types: a cytoplasmic staining pattern (C-ANCA) or a perinuclear staining pattern (P-ANCA). LÄS MER
4. Ulcerative Colitis - Surgery Outcome and Pathophysiological Aspects
Sammanfattning : Background: Ulcerative Colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease; the etiology is mainly unknown. Around 30% of the patients are treated by surgery. The aims of this thesis were to evaluate outcome after specific surgical procedures and to investigate possible pathophysiological aspects. LÄS MER
5. Aspects on Long-term Outcome After Restorative Proctoclectomy
Sammanfattning : Aspects on Long-term Outcome After Restorative Proctocolectomy Abstract Background Restorative proctocolectomy is the preferred surgical alternative for reconstruction after proctocolectomy for ulcerative colitis.
