    Abstract : Shoulder arthroplasty surgery has shown remarkable progress during the last few decades. A number of factors affect postoperative range of motion, pain and prosthetic durability. Among these factors, the length of the lever arm and joint stability is the ones that can be altered by the selected prosthetic component. READ MORE

  2. 2. Flexor tendon repair : rehabilitation adherence, outcome and complications

    Author : Jonas Svingen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Flexor tendon injuries in the finger (zones 1 and 2) are problematic due to high rates of both rupture of the repair and of soft tissue adhesions resulting in poor range of motion. Both complications often result in reoperations and worse outcome of the injury. Rehabilitation after flexor tendon repair is a balancing act for the patient. READ MORE

  3. 3. Congenital upper limb anomalies : studies of epidemiology and hand function

    Author : Anna Gerber Ekblom; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Objectives: This thesis has three interrelated aims. (1) To describe the epidemiology of congenital upper limb anomalies (CULA) in Stockholm County, Sweden, in order to augment the few existing population studies of CULA (paper I); (2) To measure the incidence of different categories of CULA while using and evaluating a recently proposed new classification scheme (Oberg, Manske and Tonkin (OMT) Classification) based on more current knowledge of limb development than the previously used International Federation of Societies for Surgery of the Hand (IFSSH) Classification is based on (paper II); and (3) To investigate the relationship between measurements of body function and structure with both activity and participation in children and adults with radial longitudinal deficiency (RLD) by using the International Classification of Functioning and Health (ICF) framework, in order to shed light on what aspects of physical limb function and structure actually affect individuals’ daily life activity (papers III and IV).
