1. Clinical Aspects on Chimney Stent Graft Technique in Endovascular Repair of the Aorta
Abstract : Introduction: Open repair of the aorta carries a high risk for morbidity and mortality especially in the elderly population and in patients unfit for major surgery. Endovascular aortic repair is safe, durable and effective when there is adequate proximal and distal sealing zone for the aortic stent graft. READ MORE

2. Graft polymerization
Abstract : This thesis is focused on morphological aspects of polymericsubstrates used in graft polymerization. Morphological changesof selected polymer systems were investigated in the virginstate and after irradiation, during the progress of graftpolymerization, in the final grafted state and duringsubsequent degradation.

5. The morselized and impacted bone graft. Animal experiments on proteins, impaction and load
Abstract : This thesis focuses on the healing and remodeling of the morselized and impacted bone allograft, commonly used in revision of loosened hip prostheses with osteolysis. The influence on remodeling by the impaction procedure per se was analyzed, as well as the effects of endogenous bone graft proteins, and an exogenously applied growth factor (OP-1). READ MORE
