  1. 16. Clinical and Biological Patterns in Soft Tissue Sarcoma

    Author : Emelie Styring; Lund Ortopedi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; angiosarcoma; radiation-associated sarcoma; irradiated; RET; KIT; MYC.;

    Abstract : Soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) are rare malignant tumors, of which 3/4 are high-grade and 1/3 metastasize. For optimal management, STSs should be treated at multidisciplinary sarcoma centers. READ MORE

  2. 17. In vitro and in vivo studies of tissue engineering in reconstructive plastic surgery

    Author : Fredrik R.M. Huss; Gunnar Kratz; Elof Eriksson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Tissue engineering; plastic surgery; guided tissue regeneration; Plastic surgery; Plastikkirurgi; Plastikkirurgi;

    Abstract : To correct, improve, and maintain tissues, and their functions, are common denominators in tissue engineering and reconstructive plastic surgery. This can be achieved by using autolo-gous tissues as in flaps or transplants. However, often autologous tissue is not useable. READ MORE

  3. 18. Modeling Residual Stress Fields in Soft Tissues : with Application to Human Arteries

    Author : Tobias Olsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Continuum Mechanics; Modeling; Residual Stress; Soft Tissues; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Biomechanics or Mechanics of Biology comprises many different fields. This thesis deals with soft tissues or living tissues and the fact that these materials live in a pressurized environment. This means that an unloaded tissue may not be stress free. The stress in an unloaded body is usually called residual stress. READ MORE

  4. 19. Soft Tissue Mechanics with Emphasis on Residual Stress Modeling

    Author : Tobias Olsson; Anders Klarbring; Ray W. Ogden; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mechanics; Residual Stress; Growth; Remodeling; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns residual stress modeling in soft living tissues. The word living means that the tissue interacts with surrounding organs and that it can change its internal properties to optimize its function. READ MORE

  5. 20. On the treatment of tibial shaft fractures

    Author : Abbas Karladani; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cast; Distraction; Dynamometry; Fracture; Limb lengthening; Nailing; Outcome; Psychometry; Shaft; Soft tissue; Tibial;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to evaluate those factors, which have predictive value for development of complications after tibial shaft fractures, and to evaluate the outcome of the available treatment methods for closed, as well as open tibial shaft fractures associated with extensive soft-tissue injury. To determine the factors, which influence healing speed, we reviewed 100 consecutive patients with 104 tibial shaft fractures tibial shaft fractures. READ MORE
