William H. Harris (orthopaedic surgeon)
William H. Harris, M.D., D.Sc., is an American orthopaedic surgeon, Founder and Director Emeritus of the Massachusetts General Hospital Harris Orthopaedics Laboratory,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=William Harris, M.D. )〕 and creator of the Advances in Arthroplasty course held annually since 1970.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Recognizing an MGH innovator )〕
Much of Harris' research focuses on osteolysis, the deterioration of bone tissue around joint replacement implants, and developing highly cross-linked polyethylene to counter the issue of osteolysis. Fifteen years of wide spread use of highly cross-linked polyethylene in patients have shown it to be very effective in preventing osteolysis. Harris is also recognized for performing the world's first successful total hip replacement in a patient with a total congenital dislocation of the hip and for developing the first effective cement-free acetabular component.
In addition, Harris is known for developing the Harris Hip Score which rates a patient's progress on pain and function following surgery. His work inspired surgical techniques, implant design, development of new operations, prevention of blood clot formation, and other leading advances in hip surgery.
