1. 1. Diseases in the hip - Exploring risk for fracture and osteoarhritis

   Författare :Cecilie Hongslo Vala; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hip fracture; Femoral neck fracture; Trochanteric fracture; Osteoporosis; Osteoarthritis; Total hip replacement; Total knee replacement; Farmers; Homogamy; Assortative mating; Bereavement;

   Sammanfattning : Objective: Hip fracture is the most serious condition linked to low bone mass or osteoporosis, and Sweden has one of the highest incidences in the world. The proportion of elderly is increasing in the Swedish population and in the world, and with increased age comes increased incidence for both fragility fracture and osteoarthritis. LÄS MER

3. 2. Alternative techniques in trochanteric hip fracture surgery. Clinical and biomechanical studies on the Medoff sliding plate and the Twin hook

   Författare :Ola Olsson; Lund Ortopedi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ortopedi; Kirurgi; traumatology; hip fracture; trochanteric; internal fixation; radiography; randomised trial; complication; biomechanics; orthopaedics; Surgery; traumatologi;

   Sammanfattning : In allowing compression along the femoral shaft (uniaxial dynamization) and optional compression along the femoral neck (biaxial dynamization), the Medoff sliding plate (MSP) represents a new principle in the fixation of trochanteric hip fractures. The Twin hook with 2 apical hooks was designed as an alternative to the lag screw. LÄS MER

4. 3. Dynamic fixation of unstable trochanteric hip fractures. A clinical and radiographic evaluation of the Medoff sliding plate

   Författare :Karl Lunsjö; Lund Ortopedi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; orthopaedics; Surgery; Radiography.; Implants; Hip fractures; Trochanteric; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

   Sammanfattning : In stabilising extracapsular hip fractures, the Medoff sliding plate (MSP) differs from other screw-plates by its compression capacity along the femoral shaft (uniaxial dynamization). Additional compression along the neck of femur can be achieved by primary release of the lag screw (biaxial dynamization). LÄS MER

5. 4. 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

7. 5. Hip fracture : risk factors and mortality

   Författare :Bahman Y Farahmand; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Epidemiology; case-control study; hip fracture; body size; physical activity; socioeconomic status; marital status; smoking; alcohol; survival;

   Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis was to identify factors related to risk of hip fracture and mortality after the hip fracture. We used data from a large population-based case-control study in postmenopausal women aged 50-81 years during 1993-1995 who resided in six counties in Sweden. LÄS MER
