2. Unilateral Cleft Lip and Palate : Quality of Life and Nasal Form and Function among Adults
Abstract : Unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) is a craniofacial malformation with functional and aesthetical impact on the face and the upper airways. The aims of the current thesis were to evaluate Quality of life (QoL) in adults treated for UCLP (I), to objectively evaluate nasal form and function and to search for possible differences in residual nasal deformity and impairment of function between patients operated according to one-stage and two-stage palate closure (II) as well as to evaluate the relationship between professional and lay rating and patient satisfaction with nasolabial appearance (III) and to identify factors associated with lower levels of QoL and less satisfaction with nasal appearance among adults treated for UCLP (IV).

3. Diagnosis and management of periprosthetic joint infections
Abstract : Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a severe complication to hip and knee arthroplasty surgery. In the light of its devastating implications for the affected patient, its great economic impact on the health care system and the increasing antimicrobial resistance, it is important to develop efficient diagnostic methods, identify optimal treatment pathways and improve the care for patients.

4. On bone quality and implant stability measurements
Abstract : In conjuction with placement of oral implants, the jaw bone quality assessment is mainly based on quantitative radiographic measures and the subjective opinion of the performing surgeon. While the primary implant stability is discussed in terms of the pre-set motor torque and the subjective hand-felt perception during final tightening of implants, the secondary stability is defined as the absence of implant mobility.

5. Towards better understanding of small joint arthroplasty in the hand. Silicone implants, osseointegrated implants and functional outcome
Abstract : Today the most widely used implants for small joint arthroplasty in the hand are flexible silicone implants, introduced by Swanson in the 1960 s. They are encapsulated by connective tissue, which allows pistoning movements in the bone marrow canal This type of implant, mostly used in rheumatic patients, gives high patient satisfaction, relief of pain, correction of deformity and a changed arc of motion towards a more functional position.
