  2. 11. Popliteal Artery Aneurysms : - epidemiology, treatment and results

    Author : Anne Cervin; Martin Björck; Mårten Falkenberg; Hans Ravn; Michelle Antonello; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Popliteal artery aneurysms; Endovascular; Open surgery; Outcome; Occlusion; Screening; Prevalence; Rupture; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Abstract : Popliteal aneurysms (PA) are limb threatening, since the aneurysm thrombose and emboli from the aneurysm sac occlude the distal vessels, resulting in chronic or acute limb ischaemia. Open surgical repair (OSR) has been challenged by endovascular repair (ER), a minimal invasive technique. READ MORE

  4. 12. Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction : patellar tendon, Gore-Tex, Kennedy LAD and tibia tunnel ingrowth

    Author : Olle Muren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Prospective studies; randomized controlled trials; anterior cruciate ligament; treatment outcome; osteoarthritis; knee; prostheses and implant; radiology; reconstructive surgical procedures.;

    Abstract : Anterior cruciate ligament injury can induce permanent functional impairment in the physically active individual. Different methods to repair or replace the tom ligament have been tried and investigated. This thesis investigates three principally different grafts used in ACL reconstruction; autogenous tendon, stent/augmentation and prosthetic. READ MORE

  5. 13. Aspects on Imaging and Endovascular Treatment of Aortic Dissection and Aneurysm

    Author : Mats-Ola Eriksson; Rickard Nyman; Anders Wanhainen; Johnny Steuer; Mårten Falkenberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Aneurysms; aorta; stents; ultrasound; colour Doppler; vascular; interventional; aortic dissection; complicated; TEVAR; EVAR; re-intervention; survival; thrombosis; false lumen; aortic remodelling; Radiology; Radiologi;

    Abstract : Aortic aneurysm and dissections are potentially life threatening conditions. The advent of endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has reduced perioperative mortality and morbidity and are now established therapy methods for treatment of aortic disease.

  6. 14. Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair : Clinical and morphological outcomes

    Author : Tina Hellgren; Kevin Mani; Santi Trimarchi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Abstract : In the years following its introduction in the late 1980’s, thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) rose as a minimally invasive alternative to open surgical repair of thoracic aortic disease. As a result, an expanding group of patients are receiving invasive treatment, even though evidence in the area is still scarce. READ MORE

  7. 15. Acute limb ischaemia : Treatment, outcome and time trends

    Author : Olivia Grip; Martin Bjöck; Clark Zeebregts; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Acute limb ischaemi; Treatment; Open revascularisation; Endovascular revascularisation; Outcome; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Abstract : Acute limb ischaemia (ALI) is a frequent emergency associated with high rates of amputation and death. Traditionally, patients with ALI were treated with open surgical removal of the occlusion or bypass surgery. During the past few decades, new endovascular techniques developed. READ MORE
