...when I had the privilege of introducing Charnley's operation in this country, many centers have adopted it, including Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York, Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, the University of Illinois Hospitals in Chicago, the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, and Massachusetts General and New England Baptist hospitals in Boston. It would be less than fair to omit mention of these major teaching institutions that remain in the van of orthopedic practice in this country...
