Dr. Mihran O. Tachdjian, Child Orthopedics Expert
Dr. Mihran O. "Myke" Tachdjian, 69, the head of orthopedic surgery at Children's Memorial
Hospital from 1964 to 1985, founded the specialty of pediatric orthopedics. He did this through
his patient care, his teaching at Northwestern University Medical School, his four-volume
Pediatric Orthopedics textbook and his Pediatric Orthopedic International Seminars, which have been attended in the last 24 years by 10,000 orthopedic surgeons from more than 60 countries.
A resident of the Chicago's Streeterville neighborhood, he died Monday at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
"He was the most renowned orthopedic physician in the world," said Dr. James Conway, head of nuclear medicine at Children's Memorial. "He loved children--just loved them. Myke had a
wonderful charm in dealing with people and was an excellent clinician, one who gave you the time and who made the effort. He had an unbelievable amount of knowledge, gained through writing his books and from his contacts around the world."
A native of Beirut, he received his medical degree at the American University there in 1952. He
took his internship at Wesley Memorial Hospital and completed his orthopedic training at
Northwestern University Medical School.
He has been attending orthopedic physician at Children's Memorial since 1985 and professor of
orthopedic surgery at Northwestern University Medical School since 1969.
His text on pediatric orthopedics is considered the international standard of the specialty. It
was first published in two volumes in 1972. It was reissued in four volumes in 1990 and consists
of 3,600 pages. He was also the author of "The Child's Foot" and "Congenital Dislocation of the Hip."
He was a founding member and former president of the Pediatric Orthopedic Society of North
America.
Honors he received include the Gold Medal from the British Orthopedic Association; the 1983
Stinchfield Award from The Hip Society; Member of Honor from the French Orthopedic and
Traumatology Society; and the Berg Medal from the University of Goteborg, Sweden.
Survivors include his wife, Vivian; a son, Jason; two brothers; and two sisters.
Visitation will be from 4 to 9 p.m. Thursday and Friday in Blake-Lamb Funeral Home, 1035 N.
Dearborn St., Chicago. Plans for services are pending.
"Tachdjian Courses"
Beginning in 1973 Drs. Paul Griffin, Dean MacEwen, Douglas McKay and Mihran Tachdjian decided that the interests of Pediatric orthopedic education and more importantly, their personal gastronomic pleasures, could be combined. They thought that there was a need for better instruction in the understanding and practice of orthopedic problems involving children. More importantly (so each has told me ) if the course was set up well, the resulting fees could lead to some pretty good faculty dinners. Dr. George Simons, who was then recently out of his residency and working with Dr. Tachdjian, was an eager trench worker. Dr. Simons recalls reviewing the course evaluations the first year and reading one participant's complaint. . .
"Why can't you invite some famous people to give the lectures".
Subsequently, this course has become an annual event, now under the leadership of Dr. Tachdjian, and has become known colloquially as "The Tachdjian Course". The gastronomic focus of the organizing faculty led to altering the venue of the meeting in alternate years from Chicago to San Francisco.
While this "for profit" undertaking provided good food for the faculty, it also provided instruction for generations of young orthopedic surgeons (many of whom were in the throes of terror due to impending Board examinations). But perhaps it's most important feature has been less recognized... that of its influence on internationalizing American pediatric orthopedics. Because of Dr. Tachdjian's interests and contacts in international orthopedics, he invited orthopedists first from Europe then later from around the world to join the faculty. It was during these faculty functions, that some of the first real contacts were made between the pediatric orthopedic leaders in the USA and Canada with those from elsewhere.
This stimulus to internationalism has had an enormous impact on pediatric orthopedic surgery
worldwide.
Text Books of Pediatric Orthopedics:
Historically, pediatric orthopedics began with the publication of "Orthopaedica. Or the Art of
Correcting and Preventing Deformities in Children" by Nicolas Andry in 1743. Clearly, the term Pediatric Orthopedics is a tautology since "orthopaedics" has to do with children. It was only later, as musculoskeletal surgery of all types co-opted the term "Orthopaedics" as its own, that the additional modifier of Pediatric became a necessity. The debate concerning the use of "Paediatrics" versus "Pediatrics" was long ago settled in the USA in the interests of brevity, (as similarly shown by the usage of hematology, fetus, and esophagus versus haematology, foetus and oesophagus etc.). This debate between the usage of "Orthopedics" versus "Orthopaedics", however, continues, and the latter is usually combined with "Pediatric", rather than Paediatric (which the purists who insist on Orthopaedics should equally insist on), which seems singularly schizophrenic Blount's book "Fractures in Children", first published in 1955, was a landmark addition to the American orthopedic library by singling out children's problems. Then came Dr. Albert Ferguson Jr,'s "Orthopedic Surgery in Infancy and Childhood" in 1957. This was a volume of 508 pages, to be compared to today's multi-volume text of Tachdjian, for example of 3373 pages. Dr. William Green, of Boston, always felt miffed that many of the ideas presented in Ferguson's text were his, yet Dr. Green was never able to put together a text himself, as he was not a generalizer, and always wanted to know the specifics of the child
in question before giving clinical advice. Tachdjian's first edition published in 1972 paid tribute to Dr. Green for his teachings which were liberally incorporated into the book. At about the same time, Mr. John Sharrard published his Textbook of Pediatric Orthopedics in 1971 in the UK, and Dr. Mercer Rang published his "Children's Fractures" in 1974 With the publishing in 1975 of "Pediatric Orthopaedics" edited by Drs. Wood Lovell & Robert Winter pediatric orthopedics entered into the realm of multi-author texts which appear to be the format of most medical textbooks of today.
Now, Sharrard's text has reached three volumes and Tachdjian's to four with the operative plates available as a separately published two volume set an "Atlas of Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery" Rockwood and Green's original two volume text on fractures has a separate third volume for children's fractures edited by Dr. Kaye Wilkins
