Join us to identify a range of factors that led to the development of the orthopaedic specialty. In this live stream, we will discuss key individual and events which were able to be innovative as well as assess their contributions both within and beyond the hospital.
This session will consist of five talks outlining the history of Middlesex Hospital's Orthopaedic Department. The learning points are the contributions made by Bankart and Wiles to orthopaedic surgery which will be of interest to orthopaedic surgeons, medical historians, and other healthcare practitioners.
