Another year in the growth of our Organisation is shortly going to culminate into our annual meeting at the Historical

city of Agra. It has been a very fruitful year for me personally and our Organisation has maintained a steady growth

path on the foundation laid by Presidents preceding my tenure.

Bone & Joint Day on the 4th August was celebrated with fervour. Large number of associations carried out voluntary

efforts in serving the poor and needy. We have received numerous reports and strategies towards their contributions.

To me however it is the feeling of getting together as a community and serving our brethren which is most important.

In this endeavour our Orthopedic fraternity has exhibited unity and love for each other and for their patients.

Indian Journal of Orthopedics has not only maintained its quality and standards, but has also bettered its impact factors

steadily. This has gone on to take our academic standing internationally many notches higher. We all stand to thank

and applaud the editorial team for these wonderful efforts.

The protocol and blue book of Indian Orthopedic Association which has been under revision for a considerably long

time is drawing close to completion and a fresh look blue book is expected to be in circulation in the very near future.

The executive body would like to put on record sincere thanks to the protocol committee for carrying out this difficult

and time consuming process.

The fellowships, both foreign and national offered by Indian Orthopedic Association have generated an

unprecedented interest by the young and dynamic members of our community. We are upto date with the awards of

these fellowships and results for 2013 were announced in appropriate time. Some changes have been instituted in the

fellowship nomenclature where the sponsors had defaulted in payment and a fresh look has been accorded to the

process.

The fellowships committees (both inland and foreign) have been very active in sending email blast to the members.

We have seen 33 applications for the fellowship and this I believe is a record number. Our heart felt thanks and

congratulations to these committees and their members.

The centre state relation committee has been very energetic in its attempt to coordinate the efforts of all the affiliated

chapters. Regular mails and reminders were posted and the progress was marked to the central office at appropriate

intervals.

Undergraduate and post graduate training programs are carried out under the banner of our Association by PG training

Committee. We have had numerous requests for further increase of these courses. This is a very encouraging trend and


4

I expect more and more teachers and centers to come forward and further strengthen these programs. Work done by

this group attracts special mention.

The IOA Executive elections for the coming year are well under the way and we expect a smooth and friendly contest

as usual demonstrating the democratic fabric of our association. We congratulate the electoral officer and his team for

under taking this massive task.

I must emphasize that any organization is only as strong as the number of members it holds. We have been trying very

hard for years to make every Orthopedic Surgeon take pride in this association and join as a member. The interesting

aspect this year has been that a great number of young surgeons and post graduates students have chosen to join the

association. The post graduate students have availed the special offer to join as associate members at a greatly reduced

fee. This can be converted to life membership upon completion of degree by paying the difference of the membership

fee. I am pleased to inform that a large number of PG's have already availed this opportunity and I request the teachers

to encourage all the students to become proud member of our great association. We expect to have enrolled closed to

five hundred members this year.

Finally in conclusion I would like to record my deep gratitude to our Honorable Secretary Dr. Sudhir Kapoor for

helping me in discharging my responsibilities. I would also like to thank Mr. Ramesh Panday (Executive Secretary-

IOA Office) for his ever smiling and willing efforts in conducting the affairs of the Association.

With Warm Personal Regards to all the teachers, colleagues and young members of our Association

Dear Members

Indian Orthopaedic Association

The newsletter of any association is a link between the office of association and the members. It provides important

information for the events undertaken by the association and the proposed activities such as scientific meetings/

fellowships etc.

The newsletter bridges the gap in communication among members hence in the direction of President Theme i.e.

“Learn to unite and unite to learn”.

This newsletter will reach you just before the IOACON 2013 to be held at Agra and is last for this year.

I hope this fulfills your aspirations as a member of the association. Please feel free to communicate any suggestions.

Kumar desired that all the abstracts should come to the IJO office for peer review and only if they are found good

enough,they will be published.

his team to decide about the format in which the abstracts would be provided for fast review and publication.

should be published as souvenir.

applications for J & J and none for KOA Robert Roaf fellowship. Dr Taneja said that Robert roaf fellowship is

a very prestigious award of IOA and its name should not be changed. Dr. H.K.T. Raza and Dr. S.S. yadav also

agreed with the opinion of Dr Tanjeja and finally it was decided that it should be continued with the name of

Robert roaf fellowship only.

Dr. Kapoor said that in the Bangalore GBM, it was decided that since KOA has given a handsome amount to the

I am happy to inform that the results of our continuous efforts to promote the Basic Science and Orthopaedic Research

are becoming visible now. Most of the state chapters have made one to three hour slot dedicated for this specialty in

their annual conferences. I received letters from the secretary of many states informing this. However, still some of the

chapters are yet to include a Basic sciences and research slot in their conferences. There is no news from Zonal

chapters and subspecialty conferences. An information to secretary with a copy to me will certainly be helpful to

maintain the record.

My request to start 'Dr.Balusankaran Oration' in IOACON on a subject on some 'Research' topic is still in pipeline.

Hope it will pass through soon.

Presentation of 'R C Rallan' best paper award on Basic Science and Research during inauguration has been agreed

upon.

This time IOACON 2013 has given us 3 hours slot for our subspecialty programme. We have included symposium,

Debate and lectures. This is in addition to one hour 'R C Rallan best paper award' session and non award paper session

during the conference. Thanks to programme committee.

What is more pleasing is that this year for the first time CME in IOACON has one hour lecture schedule on subjects

dedicated to research. Thanks to Odisha chapter of IOA and its convenor.

students, 17 were DNB students (7-NIMS Jaipur, 3-MGMC Jaipur, 2-Pondicherry, 1-Military Base Hospital, New

Delhi, 1 each-ESI Hospital New Delhi, & Behror, 2-from SDMH, Jaipur) and 78 PG students from various medical

�Dr. R L Dayma

�Dr. Pankaj Jindal- Hand Surgeon from Pune

All the faculties attended the sessions & delivered their lectures.

The Programme moderator – Dr. Amit Jain maintained the programme time frame in a disciplined manner very

nicely and took particular care about not to leave any stone unturned of the Programme. Dr. Zakir Hussain took care of

outdoor activities of all delegates & faculties in an appreciable manner. The scientific programme of the course were

very well prepared by me as per guidelines of IOA with proper consultation by Dr S K S Marya, President IOA, Dr.

Sudhir Kapoor –IOA Secretary, Dr Sudhir Kumar, Editor IJO, Dr. Prakash Kotwal, New Delhi and Dr. Ravi Gupta-

Chandigarh.

The registration fees were Rs. 500/- which included Breakfast & Lunch. All the faculties were paid the TA & DA

amount as per their request. The doctors who attended the programme appreciated it to the core along with the PG

students. The focus of programme was mainly on the topics which were useful for PG examination to prepare the PG

students for their exams & to produce the best of results in front of examiners. The most attractive point of the

programme was group discussion by the panelists & doubt clearance with the PGs in batches.

Some of the other highlights were the clinical examination of hip joint & spine; short cases of CTEV & Hand

deformity, Radical N. Palsy were taken by the esteemed faculty. The copy of the scientific programme is attached. I am

sure the students will benefit a lot from this teaching programme and workshop on Hand and this will reflect in their

clinical practice. On the whole, the observation made by the faculties and the feedback response from delegates was

very encouraging and resourceful. All the PGs demanded & requested that such type of academic programmes should

be conducted frequently & regularly. The cost of programme including breakfast, lunch and faculty accommodation

was Rs. 298143/- (Two Lacs Ninety Eight Thousand and One Hundred Forty Three only).

Last but not the least, it is requested to you that please reimburse as much as maximum amount of the programme,

First of all I am thankful to all the members of IOSUK for giving me this wonderful opportunity. We reached London

on 22 September 2013 and same day went to Leicester by Coach. Mr. R Pandey received us at the Coach station and

took us to the hotel. In the evening we were invited for Dinner hosted by Mr R Pandey and his wife at their residence.

Mr. Pandey briefed us about the fellowship program. For the next one week Mr. Pandey used to take us in his car from

the hotel to the Leicester General Hospital Daily at 7:45 AM and we stayed there till 6:00 PM. One day he also took us

to the private hospital where he worked until 9:00 PM. In the evening Mr. Pandey or one of his colleagues used to drop

us back to the hotel. In the evening Mr. Pandey used to take us for Dinner in one or other Restaurants of the city. One

evening we were invited for Dinner by Dr.Rajesh Kapoor and his wife Dr. Tanu Kapoor at their Residence. Both of

them were friends of Mr. Pandey and class fellow of Dr. Ravi Mittal.

During this one-week we observed various operations -arthroplasty of hIp, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow and wrist. We

saw arthroscopy of Knee, shoulder and rotator cuff repair using Jacket. We also saw reverse shoulder being done by

Mr. Pandey. He also showed us slides of his nice work on fixation of proximal humeral fractures using only

percutaneous screws for fixation with excellent results. Mr. Tandon, Mr. Chatterjee, Mr. Mangwani and many other

Senior Surgeons showed us various operations being performed by them including one Mitchel Procedure for Hallux

Valgus. We were highly impressed by the excellent facilities, strict theater discipline and good work culture in the

hospital. One day we also observed the FRCS mock examination being held at Leicester General Hospital.

Next week we were in London in Kings College Hospital. We stayed in hotel Holiday in Express at Croydon. On 30

Sept., We reached at 8 AM and participated in the morning X-ray class at Kings college Hospital. Mr.Venu Kavarthapu

and Mr. Anand Arya introduced us to other members of the dept. We were shown the Virtual reality arthroscopy lab by

Mr. Venu Kavarthapu and then we were taken to OT. Mr. Anand Arya did a shoulder arthroplasty, total elbow

replacement and other operations. In the same evening, we were invited for dinner hosted by Mr. Venu Kavarthapu &

his wife Lavanya at their residence. Mr. Venu Kavarthapu briefed us about the fellowship programme. Mr. Anand

Arya and Mr. Bijay Singh were also present and we discussed about research work done by the travelling fellows.

On 1 st October we went to Medway Hospital. Mr. Bijay Singh Did a Reverse shoulder Arthroplasty. We also saw a

total hip replacement being done. A case of Ankle Arthroscopy was also seen by us. In the Evening we travelled to

Birmingham by train to attend the BOA congress on 2-3 October. All IOSUK office bearers and we had a meeting with

BOA President and Secretary in the morning of 2nd October who welcomed us. All the fellows presented their papers

in the conference and attended good lectures and symposia. We could meet our old friends there and made many new

friends. The Exhibition section was also very good, many new instruments and devices were displayed.

from IOSUK

In the evening of 3rd October, we returned back to London. On 4th October we again went to Kings College Hospital.

Mr. Venu did a complex primary Total Hip Replacement using very small incision (MIS). He also did Arthroscopy of

hip for CAM lesion and other operations. On 5th October we left back to our home.

In brief, this unique overseas senior IOSUK traveling fellowship was really useful for all of us, not only from

academic point of view but also allowed us to have an insight into National Health Policy of United Kingdom. Our

observation on NHS hospitals was that they provide excellent healthcare facilities to every individual of the United

Kingdom, free of cost (though there is some waiting time for the routine treatment). We were looked after very well at

all the places and could never miss home during these 2 weeks. Almost every day, we have had Indian dinner hosted by

some one or the other. We noticed a positive image of Indian healthcare & professionals amongst UK doctors.

There could be many improvements, which can be made in this fellowship program, by having more academic

involvement of the fellows (like discussions, case presentations etc). This will enhance bilateral teaching and

experience sharing.

Concern was expressed regarding lack of interest/ awareness amongst members to avail the Fellowships.

Hony Secretary informed the house about the offers of two new fellowships at the Sports Injury Centre and at

Rohtak. It was decided that these be pursued and kept under observation for 3 years before being made

permanent. It should also be found out that what will happen to the fellowships if the person concerned retires or

moves out from the centre concerned.

In this context it was decided to earmark Centres of Excellence in Orthopaedics where fellowships for newer

Orthopaedic Surgeons could be sought.


68

Centres of Excellence

Dear Members,

It is said that “Charity begins at home”.

We have decided to earmark “Centres of Excellence” all over India, where path breaking or pioneering work related

to Orthopaedics and Trauma is being done in India. All members are requested to send us feedback as to such “centres

of excellence” in their local areas and the work they are doing which may be of benefit to the fraternity at large,

especially the fresh Orthopaedicians who have an urge to learn. We will list these centre on our website for our

members and lay public's ready reference and also to acknowledge the persons in our community doing path breaking

work in India.

We would also welcome the “Centres of Excellence” which would be willing to take in fresh Orthopaedicians for

short durations ranging from 3 to 6 weeks at their centres and impart in them the art of good Orthopaedics. The

modalities of such short term courses can always be worked out for the benefit of the fraternity. These short term

courses will be apart from the Inland Fellowships already being offered by IOA.

Please be forthcoming and help us create a list of “Centres of Excellence” in India.

REPORT OF MIDCON 2013

Respected Teachers and my dear friends,

Hope you all had enjoyed Midcon. On behalf of Department of Orthopaedics I like to thank Dr. Ramesh Kumar Sen

for delivering the prestigious M.L.Chatterjee memorial oration . Once again I like to pay my regards to the executive

committee for trusting us and giving us a chance to organise Midcon. First of its kind in any govt medical college. We

are overwhelmed by the positive feedbacks. We are getting in the form of phone calls and mails from our beloved

members.

Yours satisfaction gives us spirit to work and enthusiasm. We had a very tough time managing finance for the

conferences in these days.

However, with great team effort and able guidance of Prof Acharyya, Prof Srikanta Kundu and Prof Chinmoy Dey we

could manage the things in time. I would do unjustice if I don't mention the names of Dr Kiran Kumar Mukherjee, Dr.

S. N. Nandi, Dr. Partha Sarthi Sarkar and Dr. Ranajit Biswas who had been great warriors, helping me tirelessly all, the

time. I am really very grateful to the industry people who stood us by their participation in this time of crisis.

Next time we are meeting in Durgapur in a bigger edition ,so please come and do the advertisement for us as you did

this time and we would be obliged if we find a place in front page.

MIDCON 2013

REPORT OF EZROFCON 2013

The need for a forum for East Zone Orthopaedic surgeons have been felt for a long time. It is only in Chennai IOACON

that we got round to doing something specific about it. Nirmal Mahapatra, Secretary Odissa Orthopaedic Association

and myself, then President of WBOA and Amit Guha, then Secretary of WBOA held an informal meeting and then we

approached the IOA. They said there was no objection to it as already there were West Zone, South Zone and Central

Zone based associations which were functioning well. We promised to look into it at WBOACON in February 2013.

Subsequently at Howrah, we held a meeting with representatives from Odissa, Nerosa (North East Region) and Bihar

where we formed EZROF—i.e. East Zone Regional Orthopaedic Forum where we formed an Executive body.

Following on from there we organised the EZROFCON at NRS Hospital on the 13th of July. Representatives came


121

from NEROSA— i.e. Dr.Kameshwar Singh Elangovan, from Odissa i.e. Dr, Nirmal Mahapatra, Bihar—Dr,Ranjit

EZROF & WBOA

Singh and Dr.Manav and our own representatives. A day long scientific programme was held with outstanding

lectures from the above and Prof.

M.M.Ray. There were some outstanding lectures from the local faculty together with some interesting panel

discussions. The next meet will be held in Odissa.

This East Zone Orthopaedic Surgeons association will be a part of IOA and will be based on the IOA Guidelines. The

main purpose will be to propagate the activities of it's members and articulate the feelings of it's members. East Zone

Orthopaedic Association is a great step forward to coordinating and consolidating the activities of the Orthopaedic

Surgeons of this region and highlighting their achievements. The new post holders will be:-

President Dr. K.Singh Elangovan President Elect Prof. M. M. Ray

Vice President Dr. Ranjit Singh Secretary Dr. Nirmal Mohapatro

Treasurer Dr. Kiran Mukhopadhyaya

Let us all wish EZOA the best as it embarks on it's historic journey.

IOA-SOA Young Ambassador Exchange Program, Year 2013

I, Dr Praveen Tittal would like to thank Indian Orthopaedic Association for giving me an opportunity to attend the

Annual Scientific Meeting of Singapore Orthopaedic Association (SOA), held from 9th - 12th October, 2013 at Four

Seasons Hotel, Singapore. This was possible through the newly introduced 'IOA-SOA Young Ambassador Exchange

Visitor Program'.

From the day I checked in the Conference Hotel, I was looked after very nicely. I must say that the SOA people were

very kind and generous and helped me in whatever way possible. I would like to mention name of Michelle Choy,

Secretariat

Singapore Orthopaedic Association, who was very kind and treated me as a Guest during the conference.

She interacted regularly with me through e mails so that my stay in Singapore was comfortable. The conference was

very well organised and I learnt and saw many new things. I presented a paper on “Capsulolingamentotaxis and

definitive fixation by an ankle-spanning Ilizarov fixator in high-energy pilon fractures”

The paper was applauded by both the Chairpersons and audience.

The cultural events and sight seeing tours were also a part of the conference and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of

it.

To conclude, I would like to thank the Indian Orthopaedic Association, especially Dr SKS Marya, and Dr Sudhir

Kapoor for giving me this excellent academic opportunity. I shall cherish this trip for a long long time.

I started my fellowship on 30 September 2013 at King's college hospital in London. The programme coordinator was

Dr Anand Arya. Myself and two other fellows were extended a warm welcome. I started with trauma meeting at 8am

where we were discussing on an interesting polytrauma case which came over the weekend with pelvic fracture, spine

fracture and chest injuries. There was another case of gunshot injury with shattered femur who had a narrow escape of

his major vessels.

At 9am I was taken to virtual simulator laboratory where the local trainees get trained on arthrosopy and triangulation

techniques and came to know how Dr Venu K and his team was involved in development of this module with

biomedical engineers.

We had whole day theatre and watched Dr Anand Arya's surgeries on arthroscopic subacromial decompression,

Coonrad Morrey's total elbow replacement and osteogenic total wrist replacement on a rheumatoid young lady.

Same day evening we had a formal meeting and dinner with IOS-UK members and office bearers.

On 1st October we were taken to Irlingham early morning to reach Medway hospital. Dr. Bejay Sinha, Upper limb

consultant, took us to trauma meeting followed by operation theatre. He showed us a redo plating of volar Barton

fracture which failed in a week's time following the primary surgery. Dr Srinivas took us through posterior approach

total hip replacement in a fracture neck of femur in 67 year old lady. Dr Praveen Sharda showed a case of total

shoulder replacement in an arthritic shoulder. After spending whole day there we moved on to Birmingham on same

day evening to attend the British Orthopaedic Association Meet.

On 2nd and 3rd October I attended British Orthopaedic association meet at Birmingham. The poster presentation on

“Safe corridor techniques in K wiring of phalangeal fractures” was displayed with good reviews from attendees.

On 4th October I came back from Birmingham to attend the last day of my fellowship in King's college hospital,

London. Dr Venu K kindly lined up interesting cases for us to see. I scrubbed up to assist him on difficult primary hip

replacement where there was loss of acetabulum, Papriosky's type 2a. Trabecular metal augmented acetabular cup

was used. A case of femoroacetabular impingement had arthroscopy of hip joint with debridement which was

interesting to watch. Another revision hip replacement was done in posterior approach.

At the end of the day we had a formal discussion with other consultants to give the feedback about the fellowship.

Overall I felt this fellowship was very enriching and knowledge sharing platform with opportunity to meet the experts

in each speciality to discuss and exchange views.

I am grateful to Indian Orthopaedic Association for offering me this fellowship and sponsoring me. I have done my

best in terms of utilisation of this unique opportunity and stood tall up to the expectations and credentials of Indian

Orthopaedic surgeon and this was really appreciated by all UK consultants.

Indo British Junior Travelling Fellowship report (June 23rd to July 6th 2013)

At the outset, I would like to thank IOS UK for providing me the opportunity to visit various centres of excellence in

United Kingdom. Their efforts had made the tour an experience to savour for life.

23-06-2013(Sunday)

Sarvdeep, Ashok and I gathered together at the Heathrow central bus station. After the initial exchange of pleasantries

we gelled together as if we knew each other for a long time (benefit of fellowship). We caught an afternoon bus to

travel to Leicester (3 hours from London) where our first week of fellowship was organised. We were received by Mr.

Radhkant Pandey (Consultant in Trauma and Orthopaedics University Hospitals of Leicester) who was our host in

Leicester. Our accommodation was arranged in the hospital premises. After settling down Mr. Pandey took us out for

dinner in his residence and we had lovely Indian food cooked by Mr. Pandey himself.

24-06-2013(Monday)

We proceeded to Leicester General Hospital where after the initial introduction with the hospital staff we settled in the

operation theatre to observe.

As Sarvdeep had interest in spine he observed in theatre where spine surgeries were going and I and Ashok had interest

in joint replacement and sports injury.

We observed Mr. Kulkarni performing three primary total hip replacement and one primary total knee replacement.

Mr. Kulkarni discussed with us about Tribology and his criteria for implant selection.

After finishing our day we were taken out to an Indian restaurant 'Jungle' by Mr. Pandey. Mr. Kulkarni joined us.

25-06-2013(Tuesday)

Today we observed Mr. Power performing a complicated revision THR. The case was of previously operated THR

with history of recurrent dislocation.

The other case was of postero-lateral complex reconstruction in left knee. The reconstruction was done using

hamstring graft and both lateral collateral and popliteus was reconstructed.

Both the cases were accompanied by healthy discussion regarding the varying trends followed by the surgeons in

India.

Today again Mr. Pandey took us all to his home for lovely Italian cuisine, cooked by him.

26-06-2013(Wednesday)

In the operation theatre we observed Mr. Tandon operating on an ACL deficient knee. He reconstructed ACL using

semitendinosus and gracilis graft. As the graft was very thin he explained in detail regarding his technique of using

orthocord for increasing the graft length without comprising the thickness. He also described his technique of MPFL

reconstruction for recurrent dislocation of patella.

After the case Mr. Pandey took us out to market Harborough where he conducts his shoulder clinic. We got a chance to

observe the English way of conducting OPD which was very interesting. En-route back to Leicester he took us to

Foxton locks where we saw the ancient way of inter-connecting the canals.

Once back in Leicester we attended the panel discussion on the role of Thromboprophylaxis in orthopaedics.

27-06-2013(Thursday)

Mr. Pandey showed some interesting X-rays of his previously operated upper end humerus fractures. He discussed his

technique for fixing these fractures which was interesting. He also discussed sleeve jacket technique for repairing

irreparable rotator cuff tears.

Following this we observed him operating arthroscopic sub-acromial decompression and an elbow arthroscopy case.

We were treated with south Indian cuisine by Mr. Pandey in a restaurant Chennai Express after which we had Pan

(traditional Indian mouth-freshener).

28-06-2013(Friday)

Today Mr. Mahajan took me and Ashok to Leicester Infirmary which was the trauma centre of Leicester. Observed Mr.

Mahajan performing distal end radius plating and lower end femur plating in a patient with ipsilateral trochanter

fracture fixed 4 months back.

It was our last day in Leicester as we have to travel to Huddersfield. After paying our regards to Mr. Pandey, who

dropped us to railway station, we caught our train for Huddersfield. Our accommodation was arranged in comfortable

Cedar Hotel. After having a rich Indian diet we slept with the excitement to attend the conference on next day.

29-06-2013(Saturday)

In Huddersfield we attended the 15th annual IOS-UK conference. The conference provided us an opportunity to meet

Mr. Amit Sinha, Mr. Venu Kavarthapu, Mr. Gautam Chakravarti, Mr. Anand Arya, and Mr. Bijayendra Singh.

The conference was a mix of multiple free paper presentation and 3 key note lectures from distinguished faculty. All

three of us presented our work which was widely appreciated by the gathered Indian orthopaedic fraternity of the UK.

We also met and interacted with president of our parent body, IOA, Dr. S.K.S Marya and state chapter fellows from

Madhya Pradesh and Kerala.

Education program was followed by the banquet and a lively entertainment program. It was heartening to see an

environment which was so electrified and rich in Indian tradition that we forgot we were in a foreign country.

Special thanks to Mr. Radhakant Pandey for making our first half of fellowship extremely comfortable. He

took that extra care to make us feel at home.

After finishing of our breakfast we started for London for our next round of fellowship. We travelled along with Mr.

Anand Arya and Mr. Karthik Karuppaiah. It was a pleasant 5 hour journey by road. En-route we had our lunch. Our

accommodation was arranged in IBIS style hotel in West Croydon area.

We were all so tired that after finishing our dinner we retired to our bed to start the next day fresh.

01-07-2013(Monday)

We reached kings hospital and were received by Mr. A Arya. He took us to who helped us in clearing our occupational

health clearance and issuance of honorary contracts. With the administrative formalities out of the way, we were

treated by Mr. Sinha with shoulder arthroscopy. Mr. Karthik (Fellow) started the case and Mr. Sinha later joined him.

In the parallel O.T. we observed metacarpal phalangeal joint fusion.

02-07-2013(Tuesday)

In the morning we attended the trauma meeting where all the consultant and resident gathered to discuss the previous

day's admission in the hospital and present day surgery.

We entered in operation theatre where we observed Mr. Verma performing ACL reconstruction using Hamstring graft

in a non-united ACL avulsion fracture. Mr. again operated on an Acetabulum fracture. It was a badly comminuted

fracture wherein he plated the fracture through anterior inguinal approach. It was quite an interactive session wherein

he explained the logical reasoning towards approaching such patient.

03-07-2013(Wednesday)

Following the morning trauma meeting we entered the theatre along with Mr. A Arya where we observed him

performing elbow arthroscopy for stiffness in old operated case of elbow replacement.

After finishing the case we were taken by Mr. A Arya to Medway Kent hospital where circuit meeting was organised.

Residents of the hospital presented their work which was a quite interesting mix of work. Further Mr. Joe Dias gave a

lecture on scaphoid fracture which gave us a new perspective to the way we should look at scaphoid. Following the

meeting the dinner was arranged in a nearby hotel finishing which Mr. A Arya dropped us at our hotel.

04-07-2013(Thursday)

It was a relatively free day for us. Very few cases were planned for the day. After attending the morning trauma

meeting we observed Mr. Sandesh performing TFS (Taylors Spatial Frame) for comminuted fracture of midshaft tibia

with compromised skin condition.

After finishing the case we got a chance to explore London.

05-07-2013(Friday)

Our last day in Kings College Hospital and by far it was the most satisfying day. Mr Venu had arranged knee

arthroscopy simulation course for the fellows. The simulation course is by far superior to many other courses and Mr.

Venu informed that it's only the second in Europe. Followed it he took us for a round in the ward and diabetes centre of

Kings Hospital. The Diabetes centre is one of its kinds with a team to cater all aspect of diabetes. As surgery was

planned in afternoon we entered the O.T. with Mr. Venu. In the theatre he demonstrated MIS single incision posterior

approach to THA followed by hip arthroscopy for cam and pincer type impingement (excision of the cam and pincer).

As it was our last day we met Mr. Anand Arya in his OPD where he discussed our accounts. He also showed and

discussed interesting elbow X-rays which had come to his OPD on that day.

At end of the day when we finally bid them goodbye, we knew in our heart that it was an extremely gratifying

experience. We carried back memories to be cherished for life.

Token of thanks and gratitude, to Mr. Venu and Mr. Arya, for organizing the things in London, this would have

been a very difficult task.

I express my sincere thanks to all the person's in IOSUK for turning this fellowship a success. I sincerely

request them to continue the good work and thus providing an opportunity for INDIAN doctors to observe and

learn

I would like to pay my special thanks to IOA INDIA for selecting me as their fellow and thus providing me this

educationally valuable and thought provoking opportunity.

I reached Adelaide on Sunday the 29th. Sep.'2013. I was picked up by Dr Ted Mah, my dear friend since 1997 when I

first met him at the Kleinert institute in Kentucky. Being Sunday, I readily accepted his offer to take me to Barossa for

visiting its famous wineries. This was in spite of the long journey from New Delhi. In the evening I was taken to Dr

Daryl Teague's house where I stayed till the morning of 6th. Oct.'2013. Both Mr. & Mrs. Teague made me feel at home.

I was touched by their warmth and love for me who was, to start with, a total stranger to them.

My report in the 'daily diary' format is as follows:

30.09.13- Reached the Royal Adelaide Hospital and attended the Trauma meeting in the morning where all cases of

the previous week were discussed. I participated in the academic discussion on the timing of fasciotomy in

compartment syndrome.

Thereafter I attended the operating session assisting Dr Bogdan Solomon in a THR for OA hip Rt.

I was later observing a session of daycare hand surgery with Dr Ted Mah. CT release, ganglion excision etc. 01.10.13-

Morning session post operative round with Dr Dayl Teague at the Burnside hospital.

Thereafter I attended OPD session with Dr Ted Mah and the post lunch session with Dr Dayl Teague.

02.10.13- Reached the Cavalry Hospital at 8 AM to be in the theatre with Dr Ted Mah who had a full day list consisting

of 3 shoulder surgeries, CTS-2 and one foreign body removal from he thumb.

03.10.13- Visited the brand new hospital , Lyell Mcewen with Dr Sunil Putalpattu, Orthopaedic consultant. The

facilities were the latest with 9 OTs all with laminar flow, theatre integration and data recording facility. I attended the

operating session. The list was- Knee arthroscopy, TKR and ACL reconstruction.

04.10.13- Morning session attended the out patients clinic with Dr Ted Mah. In the afternoon observed surgical

procedures performed by him at the Cavalry hospital. Ulnar N. transposition with Guyan's canal release, carpal tunnel

release. In the evening I was invited to a family get to gather party by Jane & Ted Mah. It was nice to see the strong

family bonding just like we have in India.

05.10.13, Saturday- Visited the National park in the Adelaide hills, accompanied by Dr Bogdan Solomon, to see the

various Australian animals like the Koala bear, the Kangaroo, the bandicoot etc. In the afternoon visited the beach. I

Had an Indian dinner at home with Dr Daryl Teague and Mrs. Vendy Teague.

06.10.13- Took the morning flight to Darwin along with Daryl, Ted, Bogdan and several other Orthopaedic surgeons.

The pilot made a special welcome announcement for all of us flying to attend the ASM Darwin. I reached Darwin at

noon and checked in to the Novotel hotel on the Esplanade. In the evening went to the Darwin convention centre for

registration and to attend the welcome reception where I met the President of the Orthopaedic Association of

Thailand and several other delegates from different parts of Australia.

07.10.2013- the scientific sessions began at 8 AM. At 10.30 AM the inaugural ceremony was held which was

compeered by Dr Janak Mehta, the local organizing secretary of the ASM, Darwin. The Presidential lecture was

delivered by Dr Moulton from Canada. It was a thought provoking speech covering various aspects of the surgeon's

performance and the factors influencing his skill & judgment.

Report of the IOA/AOA Fellowship

The ASM was inaugurated by the Mayor of Darwin who apprised the audience about the Japanese bombing of Darwin

in 1942 and the cyclone Tracy which hit the Darwin coast in 1975. Both led to severe destruction of the city. The city

has since been reconstructed with some of the most modern buildings in the country.

Our (IOA/AOA fellows) names & photographs were projected and the President, AOA, Dr Owen mentioned us in his

speech. We felt honoured .

In the evening we were invited to the Presidents dinner reception held at the Darwin sailing club by the sea. It was an

evening spent by the sea with a nice cool breeze. The atmosphere was full of joy and friendship with good food and

drinks to keep the spirits high.

09.09.2013- Both my presentations were in the morning session back to back. The same were greatly appreciated by

the audience.

10.10.2013- We visited the Royal Darwin hospital and attended the out patients clinic of Dr Foster, visiting Paediatric

Orthopaedic surgeon from Adelaide. Over 30 patients with various problems were seen. We had a constructive

academic discussion on management of some extremely rare / complex cases. In the evening we had dinner with Dr

Bhavin and Dr Bruce foster at the Wharf.

11.10.13- We were picked up by Dr Janak Mehta at 7.30 in the morning for a fracture clinic session at the Royal

Darwin Hospital. We were able to see the usual profile of fracture cases in Darwin and the treatment trends.

On the last day of my stay in Darwin I visited the Mindel beach, the Botanical garden and some other interesting places

of tourist interest. Dr Janak was kind enough to accompany me and finally see me off at the airport for my flight back

home.

On the whole it was a nice exposure to Orthopaedic practice in Australia. It was interesting to interact with and listen to

so many experts both in Adelaide as well as in Darwin. I suggest that in future also the fellowship should include a

short period of observer ship with different surgeons along with attending the AOA or the IOA conference.

The abundance of parks and open spaces in Adelaide, the beauty of sea in Darwin with its magnificent sunset, the

absence of crowds, the fabulous wine, the lovely sea food including the Baramundi and Salmon fish were a pleasant

change from the heat and dust at home.

I would like to specially thank wendy & Daryl Teague, Jane & Ted Mah, Bogdan Solomon, Sunil Putalpattu and Janak

Mehta for making my visit a memorable one.
