Growth Hormone (GH) is essential for maintaining fat, muscle, bone, and energy balance. Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) affects about 0.3% of adults. GHD, common post-pituitary tumor surgery or radiotherapy, disrupts lipid metabolism, increasing triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol while decreasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. This is especially severe in GH …
This study seeks to evaluate the impact of intra-operative topical epidural steroid usage in patients undergoing 1-2 level lumbar laminectomy. The study will examine post-operative opioid usage, length of stay, return to work, and patient reported outcomes following these procedures.

The objective of the current study is to describe the effectiveness of conventional and intensive physiotherapeutic intervention in improving gross motor skills (i.e. postural changes, walking and balance skills) in children affected by posterior fossa tumors
Postoperative pain is important following arthroscopic shoulder surgery. Postoperative effective pain treatment provides early mobilization and a shorter hospital stay. Ultrasound (US)-guided brachial plexus blocks, such as interscalene and supraclavicular block, are usually performed. Interscalen brachial plexus block (ISCB) is one of the most preferred techniques among these. Ultrasound (US) …
Ankle fractures constitute 9% of all fractures and have an incidence of approximately 187 per 100,000 persons per year in Norway. A posterior malleolar fragment (PMF), located on the lower backside of the tibia, is present in up to 46% of Weber B. Weber B fractures are the most common …
Rupture of Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is a common pathology, but is subject to variability of associated lesions, surgical management and rehabilitation.
The purpose with this present study is to investigate the effect og a non-surgical regime in patients with an Anterior Cruciate ligament injury. The effect will be measured by patient reported outcome scores, level of function and how many of the patients are converting to operative treatment.
To achieve appropriate exposure for an anterior neck surgery (for example an Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion or ACDF), patients are positioned supine with their neck extended. Due to being in this position, patients frequently complain of posterior neck stiffness and pain postoperatively in addition to the anterior incisional pain. …
