Under the leadership of AAS Recorder, Dr. Julie Ann Sosa, and SUS Publications Chair, Dr. Joseph Woo, the AAS and SUS Pro- gram Committees are offering up another innovative scientific program to our attendees. We are honored that Dr. Thomas Fogarty will be delivering the AAS Founders Lecture and that Dr. Peter Angelos will be presenting the SUS Joel J. Roslyn Lecture. We are also excited to award Dr. Alden Har- ken the SUS Lifetime Achievement Award for 2013. New this year is a lectureship sponsored by the Brit- ish Journal of Surgery to be given by Dr. Eefje de Vries on the development, implementation and effects of a comprehensive surgical safety system. There will also be a new format for the SUS and AAS Ple- nary Sessions. Each session has been developed by the respective President, and is devoted to a single topic. They are entitled, “Generating Evidence for Evidence-based Practice” and “Publish or Perish: An Editor’s Point of View” for the SUS and AAS, respectively. New this year will be a medical student men- toring program. We will also have breakout sessions based on research interest geared to help trainees asking practical questions as they look for their first academic position. And, for the first time, the ASC will be offering maintenance of certification (MOC) to attendees. The Education Committees will hold a session on integrated training programs and the Issues Commit- tees will hold a panel on how to develop, sustain and reward mentors in surgery.

    Robert C. Jones Jr. March 19, 2018 A Man of Medicine: Dr. Henri Ford’s Incredible Journey to Become Dean of the Miller School of Medicine His abdomen distended and tender, the 6-year-old boy had gone without medical attention for four days. A ceiling had collapsed on top of him in the mayhem of Haiti’s devastating 7.1-magnitude earthquake, crushing his pelvis. Now, the boy lay in a makeshift infirmary at the U.S. Embassy in Port-au- Prince, which was being used by doctors to treat quake victims. Dr. Henri R. Ford. Henri Ronald Ford, a Haitian-born pediatric surgeon who flew to his homeland from Los Angeles to care for the injured, knew that if the youngster didn’t get immediate care, he would https://physician-news.umiamihealth.org/a-man-of-medicine-dr-henri-fords-incredible-journey-to-become-dean-of-the-miller-school-of-medicine/ 1 / 8 Robert C.

But this boy required much more serious surgery with intubation.” So Ford and the boy were airlifted by helicopter to the USS Carl Vinson, anchored off the coast of Port-au-Prince to support disaster relief efforts. There, in the supercarrier’s better-equipped medical facility, Ford saved the boy’s life, staying aboard ship to treat other victims — among them, a girl with a piece of concrete embedded in her skull.

Hemicorporectomy is a procedure where the lumbar spine and spinal cord, pelvic bones and contents, lower extremities and external genitalia are surgically removed. The rehabilitation process, in addition to being prolonged and costly, is challenging. This article reports the rehabilitation process for hemicorporectomy and shows the innovative solutions for mobility for this disability for two cases of paraplegic patients: case 1 due to traumatic spinal cord injury due to firearm injury and case 2 due to lumbosacral myelomeningocele. They presented chronic pressure ulcer which evolved to neoplastic transformation. (squamous cell carcinoma - Marjolin's ulcer). The cases were submitted to L4 hemicorporectomy and were rehabilitated to ensure the right to mobility independence for activities of daily living; social inclusion; prevention of comorbidities and pluralization of disabilities.
