Dr. Reza Rahim

A Research Paper titled “Management of Blunt Bowel and Mesenteric Injuries: Experience at the Alfred Hospital” and co-authored by Dr. Reza Rahim, has been accepted for publication in the October 2009 issue of the internationally recognised European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery.

Dr. Rahim, is an Orthopaedic Registrar at the Alfred Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. The research was undertaken by a team led by the Head of Alfred's Trauma Surgery Department at the time, two consultants and three registrars. It stemmed from the increased incidence observed at the hospital, of blunt bowel and mesenteric injury in blunt abdominal trauma, possibly due to an increasing number of high speed motor accidents and the use of seat belts.

Reza is the son of Patsy and Branu Rahim, the latter presently a Vice Patron and also former Vice President, past Club Captain and Hony. General Secretary of the Colombo Malay Cricket Club
