Theses Defended

Long term results of fracture of the femoral neck in children.

B.S.Mody

Defended this thesis as part of requirements by the M.S.University of Baroda for the Master of Surgery (Orth) degree. 1987.

This is based on a study of 25 patients with a minimum follow-up of 5 years. The main conclusions were that there is a very high rate of avascular necrosis (49%) in Type II and III displaced fractures; closed or open reduction with pin fixation is recommended for Type I, II and III fractures (both displaced & undisplaced), and for Type IV displaced fractures; there is a high chance of progressive coxa vara if these fractures are not fixed; and the changes of AVN might start manifesting as late as 2 years after injury.

Evaluation of the carbon and polyester prosthetic ligament in chronic anterior cruciate deficiency.

B.S.Mody

Defended this thesis as part of requirements by the Liverpool University for the MCh (Orth) degree course. 1993.

This study was based on a study of 31 patients with chronic anterior cruciate deficiency treated with the ABC prosthetic ligament. The main conclusions were that the carbon and polyester ABC ligament had not yielded a satisfactory level of good results when used in chronic ACL deficiency; the incidence of failure at around 15% within about 3 years of implantation was considered too high for this prosthesis to be recommended for use in young patients; true neoligament formation is far from being conclusively proved and it would be unrealistic to expect the prosthesis to be relieved of its load bearing function in due time; the prosthesis seems to be vulnerable at its exit from the tibial hole; the results seem to be highly technique sensitive and perhaps it is unwise to advocate the use of this prosthesis by the general orthopaedic surgeon.
