1-year follow-up of 920 hip and knee arthroplasty patients after implementing fast-track: Good outcomes in a Norwegian university hospital
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Background — Fast–track has become a well–known concept resulting in improved patient satisfaction and postoperative results. Concerns have been raised about whether increased efficiency could compromise safety, and whether ... -
A randomized study on migration of the Spectron EF and the Charnley flanged 40 cemented femoral components using radiostereometric analysis at 2 years
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Background and purpose We performed a randomized study to determine the migration patterns of the Spectron EF femoral stem and to compare them with those of the Charnley stem, which is regarded by many as the gold standard ... -
Can we define success criteria for lumbar disc surgery? Estimates for a substantial amount of improvement in core outcome measures
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Background and purpose A successful outcome after lumbar discectomy indicates a substantial improvement. To use the cutoffs for minimal clinically important difference (MCID) as success criteria has a large potential bias, ... -
The extent of first-time THA revision is not associated with patient-reported outcomes at 1-year follow-up: a study of 426 aseptic revisions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background and purpose: Studies evaluating pain and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) related to type of revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) are sparse. Our aim was to compare pain, physical function, quality ... -
Increasing but levelling out risk of revision due to infection after total hip arthroplasty: a study on 108,854 primary THAs in the Norwegian Arthroplasty Register from 2005 to 2019
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background and purpose — Focus on prevention, surveillance, and treatment of infection after total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the last decade has resulted in new knowledge and guidelines. Previous publications have suggested ... -
Internal fixation of fragility fractures of the femoral neck

Intraoperatively local infiltration anesthesia in hemiarthroplasty patients reduces the needs of opioids: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with 96 patients in a fast-track hip fracture setting
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background and purpose — Local infiltration analgesia (LIA) is commonly used as a component in multimodal analgesia. Pain management directed towards hip fracture patients operated on with hemiarthroplasty is often based ... -
Outcome in adolescence of brachial plexus birth palsy - 69 individuals re-examined after 10-20 years
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Background and purpose — The frequency and severity of a permanent lesion after brachial plexus birth palsy (BPBP) and its impact on activities of daily living are not well documented. We therefore investigated the outcome ... -
Patient-reported outcome after primary and aseptic revision hip arthroplasty: 1-year follow-up of 3,559 primary and 406 revision THAs in an institutional registry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background and purpose — Patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) and revision THA are important information in the preoperative shared decision-making process. We present 1-year results ... -
Periprosthetic bone loss after insertion of an uncemented, customized femoral stem and an uncemented anatomical stem A randomized DXA study with 5-year follow-up
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Background and purpose Customized femoral stems are designed to have a perfect fit and fill in the femur in order to achieve physiological load transfer and minimize stress shielding. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) ... -
Small and similar amounts of micromotion in an anatomical stem and a customized cementless femoral stem in regularshaped femurs : A 5-year follow-up randomized RSA study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Background and purpose — High primary stability is important for long-term survival of uncemented femoral stems. Different stem designs are currently in use. The ABG-I is a well-documented anatomical stem with a press-fit ... -
Surgical approach had minor association with femoral stem migration in total hip arthroplasty: radiostereometric analysis of 61 patients after 5-year follow-up
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background and purpose: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is usually performed using 1 of 3 surgical approaches: direct lateral (DLA), posterior (PA), or anterior (AA). AA is different from DLA and PA owing to limited intraoperative ... -
Transposition of the apophysis of the greater trochanter for reconstruction of the femoral head after septic hip arthritis in children : 4 children followed for more than 15 years
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Background and purpose Total necrosis of the femoral head after infection in children during their first months of life gives a dislocated hip with severe leg shortening. A new femoral head can be achieved with subtrochanteric ... -
Trochanteric stabilizing plate in the treatment of trochanteric fractures: a scoping review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background and purpose — The trochanteric stabilizing plate (TSP) may be used as an adjunct to a sliding hip screw (SHS) in the treatment of trochanteric fractures to increase construct stability. We performed a scoping ...
