The use of biodegradable PGA stents to judge the risk of post-TURP incontinence in patients with combined bladder outlet obstruction and overactive bladder.
Eur Urol
September 2002
Department of Urology, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Göteborg, Sweden.
Objective: For patients with the combination of severe bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and severe overactive bladder (OB), no straightforward and safe treatment exists due to the risk of urge incontinence after TURP. In this study we have used a biodegradable polyglycolic stent to simulate the status after TURP and register the risk for urge incontinence.
Methods: A total of 37 patients with severe OB, combined with moderate to severe BOO, were asked if they wanted to participate.
Pressure-flow studies for patient selection in the treatment of symptomatic BPH--a one-year follow-up study.
Scand J Urol Nephrol
December 2001
Department of Urology, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Göteborg, Sweden.
Objective: Many different treatments for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) are available today. To select the most suitable method for each patient is therefore a delicate task. The aim of this study has been to use a standardised systematic investigation schedule including pressure flow studies (pQS) in order to try to use graded treatment according to obstruction.

Scand J Urol Nephrol
December 2001
Department of Urology, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Göteborg, Sweden.
Objective: One of the most common "treatment" alternatives in suspected outflow obstruction due to bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) is watchful waiting (WW). The aim of this study was to see whether there were any differences in outcome between patients with slight, moderate or severe obstruction due to BOO as classified by transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) and urodynamics.
Material And Methods: Thirty-seven men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and suspected BOO were included.
Talonavicular arthrodesis in the rheumatoid foot.
Foot Ankle
November 1992
Department of Orthopaedics, University Hospital, Lund, Sweden.
Arthrodesis of the talonavicular joint with a cylindrical dowel was performed in 19 feet in 17 rheumatoid patients with arthritic destruction of the talonavicular joint, but without fixed hindfoot deformity. Osseous union was achieved in 12 feet, but all patients experienced pain relief and no foot showed progressive valgus deformity of the hindfoot during follow-up. Staple fixation seemed to promote osseous union.
