Am. Acad. Orthop. Surg., Lectures from the 1944 Instruct. Courses. - Lincoln 1945, Gr.4°, IV, 568 pp., zahlr. Abbildungen, orig. Leinenband. James E.M. Thomson was "during his forty-five years of active orthopaedic practice, Thomson made more than 150 presentations on scientific subjects. His contributions extended through a road range of orthopaedic interests. His experimental and clinical work on reactions of the various tissues to crushing wounds was significant. An exhibit of this work at the Academy brought him a Gold Medal Award in 1944. At this time, much work was being done in the field of Kirschner-wire and Steinmann-pin fixation. He developed the beaded wire which was widely employed. He did pioneer work in resecting the lower pole of the patella when comminuted fractures involved that site. After the advent of the Judet prosthesis, Tommy developed what he called the light-bulb prosthesis which was a modification of the Judet technique. While it is no longer used, it was a stepping stone to time present intramedullary stem prostheses. He was a pioneer in the introduction and evaluation of initramedullary rods in this country, having been one of the first Americans to observe this method of treatment in Europe."
