<p>Wudbhav N. Sankar, MD</p>
<p>Sankar 博士接替因医疗原因辞去骨科中心主任职务的 John M. &#34;Jack&#34; Flynn 博士，后者将继续在 CHOP 任职。作为 CHOP 的医生已有 30 年，Flynn 博士担任主任超过十年，领导了儿童骨科的变革性进展。在他的领导下，CHOP 的骨科团队使脊柱侧弯手术变得更快更安全，开发了大幅减少截肢需求的肢体保留肿瘤治疗，开展了显著减少术后麻醉药物使用的研究，引入了挽救生命的胸部功能不足评估和治疗，并推动了图像引导脊柱导航技术的进步，提高了全国范围内畸形手术的安全性。</p>
<p>“在我们即将进行这一过渡之际，我们庆祝 Flynn 博士在持续创新和安全性提升方面的遗产，以及将继续惠及几代儿童的护理改善，” CHOP 首席外科医生 N. Scott Adzick 博士表示。“我们非常幸运，Sankar 博士作为一名敬业的临床医生和研究者，在我们的团队中发挥了关键作用，将负责该中心。在他的领导下，我们将继续增强在骨科护理方面的全球地位，加快早期诊断，提供更安全的干预措施，并追求有益于患者和家庭的创新。”</p>
<p>CHOP 的骨科中心在运动医学、骨折护理以及儿童、青少年和年轻成人的复杂上肢、神经肌肉和脊柱疾病方面提供深入的专业知识。CHOP 以卓越的治疗效果和以家庭为中心的护理而闻名，始终在_U.S. News 6 World Report_评选的全国儿童医院骨科、运动医学和骨骼健康领域中名列前茅，并被_Newsweek_评选为最佳儿童骨科项目之一。</p>
<p>Sankar 博士目前担任年轻成人髋关节保护项目的主任，并领导 CHOP 的髋关节疾病项目。他为患有各种髋关节疾病的婴儿、儿童和年轻人提供护理，包括髋关节发育性发育不良（DDH）、股骨髋关节撞击（FAI）、Legg-Calvé-Perthes 病和滑脱性股骨头骨骼（SCFE）。</p>
<p>“能够招募、指导和提升那些推动我们项目在全国名列前茅的杰出骨科教师，是我职业生涯中的一大荣幸，” Flynn 说。“自 2009 年加入 CHOP 以来，Sankar 博士在提高儿童髋关节和脊柱疾病的护理标准方面发挥了重要作用——推动临床进展，培养下一代，并改善无数患者和家庭的结果。”</p>
<p>在 CHOP 任职期间，Sankar 博士开创了针对未能接受 Pavlik 吊带治疗的婴儿的非传统支具，开发了用于脱位髋关节的术中和术后血流评估技术，并引入了门诊超声以加快诊断和决策。他还帮助创建了专门的脊柱团队，缩短了手术时间并改善了脊柱侧弯的治疗效果，并在开发 CHOP 的脊柱侧弯快速康复路径方面发挥了重要作用，该路径最大限度地控制疼痛和早期活动，最小化阿片类药物的使用，使许多儿童在重大脊柱矫正手术后几天内能够回家。</p>
<p>Sankar 博士的研究重点是髋关节发育不良的公共卫生改善、针对婴儿 DDH 的新型超声技术、滑脱性骨骼和患有 21 三体综合症儿童的髋关节不稳定的最佳管理。他是国际髋关节发育不良研究所（IHDI）的副主任，在包括国际 Perthes 研究小组（IPSG）和 ANCHOR 在内的多中心研究小组中担任重要角色，并在 Legg-Calvé-Perthes 基金会的董事会中任职。</p>
<p>“我对 Flynn 博士的远见卓识领导、指导和不懈追求卓越深表感激，” Sankar 说，他还是宾夕法尼亚大学佩雷尔曼医学院的骨科外科教授。“我很荣幸能在一个以勤奋、同情和跨学科合作而闻名的项目中担任 CHOP 的骨科主任。与我们杰出的团队一起，我致力于加速创新、改善康复，并为我们服务的每个儿童和家庭提供最高质量的结果。”</p>
<p>Sankar 博士获得了康奈尔大学的工程学学位和宾夕法尼亚大学医学院的医学学位。他在宾夕法尼亚大学完成了骨科外科培训，在洛杉矶儿童医院和洛杉矶 Shriners 儿童医院完成了儿童骨科研究员培训，并在波士顿儿童医院接受了青少年和年轻成人髋关节保护的高级培训。他已发表超过 150 篇同行评审的文章、章节和评论，并撰写和编辑了两本书。</p>
<p>Sankar 博士还是费城儿童医院（CHOP）骨科研究员项目的主任，该项目被公认为全国顶尖的研究员培训项目之一。他积极参与多个专业协会，包括美国骨科医师学会（AAOS）、美国骨科协会（AOA）、脊柱侧弯研究协会（SRS）以及北美儿科骨科协会（POSNA）。在 POSNA 内，他曾担任董事会的初级成员和秘书，目前负责全球最重要的儿科骨科教育活动：国际儿科骨科研讨会，简称 IPOS。</p>

</div><p>Dr. Sankar succeeds John M. &#34;Jack&#34; Flynn, MD, who will remain on staff at CHOP while stepping down as Chief of the Orthopedic Center for medical reasons. A CHOP physician for 30 years and Chief for more than a decade, Dr. Flynn has led transformative advances in pediatric orthopedics. During his leadership, CHOP's Orthopedics team made scoliosis surgery faster and safer, developed limb‑sparing tumor treatments that greatly reduced the need for amputations, led research that sharply reduced postoperative narcotic use, introduced lifesaving evaluations and treatments for thoracic insufficiency, and advanced image‑guided spine navigation techniques that have improved the safety of deformity surgeries nationwide.</p>

Scott Adzick, MD, CHOP's Surgeon‑in‑Chief. &#34;We're very fortunate that Dr. Sankar, a dedicated clinician and researcher who has played a pivotal role on our team, will oversee the center. Under his leadership, we will continue to strengthen our global standing in orthopedic care, accelerate earlier diagnosis, deliver safer interventions and pursue innovations that benefit patients and families.&#34;</p>
