About this work
Description
Kemp, Manning and Elves discuss bone grafting surgery. They show, using x-rays of actual case studies, what bone grafts actually are and how they function. The three main uses of bone grafts are covered and include: the management of fractures, the strengthening of joints made weak by disease and the replacement of bone lost do trauma or tumour. Three types of bone graft are also outlined: the autograft, the homograft and the allograft. Each area is explained in depth and illustrated with examples.

Notes
This video is one of around 310 titles, originally broadcast on Channel 7 of the ILEA closed-circuit television network, given to Wellcome Trust from the University of London Audio-Visual Centre shortly after it closed in the late 1980s. Although some of these programmes might now seem rather out-dated, they probably represent the largest and most diversified body of medical video produced in any British university at this time, and give a comprehensive and fascinating view of the state of medical and surgical research and practice in the 1970s and 1980s, thus constituting a contemporary medical-historical archive of great interest. The lectures mostly take place in a small and intimate studio setting and are often face-to-face. The lecturers use a wide variety of resources to illustrate their points, including film clips, slides, graphs, animated diagrams, charts and tables as well as 3-dimensional models and display boards with movable pieces. Some of the lecturers are telegenic while some are clearly less comfortable about being recorded; all are experts in their field and show great enthusiasm to share both the latest research and the historical context of their specialist areas.
