Research

  • Dr Karolina Eklöv, consultant in colorectal surgery and Fellow of the European Board of Coloproctology, defended her thesis with the title
    "Colorectal surgery in Sweden and Ethiopia - stoma issues and COVID-19 consequences" 24 November, 2023.

    Ongoing project after that is a multicenter RCT: /Prevention of Hernia after
    Loop Ileostomy Reversal (/PHaLIR). The participating centers are
    Södersjukhuset, Ersta, Södertälje, S:t Göran, Västerås, Torsby and Gävle.

    Another ongoing project is a study in stoma formation in acute colorectal obstruction in
    Stockholm during the years 2005-2015. Hospitals in Stockholm treat these
    patients differently and we want to evaluate if this has any impact on the
    outcome. Dr Joar Blomhe´works with this study.


    We have also a collaboration with Tikur Anbessa Spezialized Hospital in Addis Abeba, Ethiopia, where two of the studies for the thesis were done.
