On Friday 5 March at 14:00, Ahmed A. Abood defends his PhD dissertation entitled "Formation and Prevention of Bone Bridges after Physeal Injury. An Experimental Study in a Porcine Model".
Approximately one fourth of all term pregnant women have their labour induced. This often includes Physeal injuries in children can cause growth arrest and angular bone deformities. The growth arrest occurs due to bone bridge formation at the physeal injury site. Such bone bridges are currently treated by resection and interposition of i.e, fat tissue in the gap. However, this treatment option has proven ineffective. Alternatively, interposition of cartilage in the resected physeal gap reveals promising results in re-generating the physis after injury.
The summary is written by the PhD student.
The defence is public and takes place online via Zoom (https://zoom.us/j/95858575344?pwd=NWZGVHJqSmVHZzJDbzVIcVc4Tzh2UT09). Please read the attached press release for more information.
