Surgeon; associated for most of his career with Guy's Hospital, Lane is known particularly for three surgical procedures: treatment of the cleft palate, the application of internal splints to fractures using the aseptical 'Lane technique' and the treatment of chronic intestinal stasis. During the 1914-18 War he organised and opened Queen Mary's Hospital, Sidcup, a pioneering institution in plastic surgery. In 1925 he founded the New Health Society, the first organised body to deal with social medicine.
