摘要:

The appearances, distribution, and direction of muscle in the unilateral cleft lip as indicated by electrical stimulation are described. The findings differ from those reported by Fata and associates in their dissections in that functionally the fibers do not appear to parallel the margin of the cleft. Based on these findings, a method of layer-by-layer, step-by-step closure of the unilateral cleft lip is described that attempts to split the orbicularis bulge and advance the lateral muscle into the philtrum to a position more nearly imitating the direction and extent of the muscle in a normal lip.

摘要:

Blepharophimosis is a rare congenital triad consisting of epicanthus inversus, blepharoptosis, and a wider than normal intercanthal distance. Attention has recently been drawn to abnormalities of the eyebrow and the poorly developed nasal bridge. I record 9 cases of blepharo-phimosis associated with cup-lop ears seen over the last 15 years. These include a father and his 4 children.

摘要:

Operations for lengthening the columella can be classified into three groups on the basis of source of material: lip, nose, or ear.When seen in profile, the middle of the lip provides one-fourth to one-third of the forward projection of the columella as compared with the level of the alar bases. Complete bilateral cleft lips usually benefit from columellar lengthening, but symmetrical, incomplete clefts rarely require it. Ancillary procedures, such as correction of a retruded maxilla by Le Fort I osteotomy or by contour buildup, can enhance the overall result. Our experience with advancement of skin from the floor of the nose and ala[15],skin from the alar margins at the tip[7],prolabial advancement flaps, fork flaps, and composite earlobe grafts is reported.

摘要:

George David Pollock, F.R.C.S., convinced the world of the efficacy of skin autografting and homografting. Previous studies on the priority of skin grafting are reviewed. The life of Pollock, including a glimpse of the surgical world of the Victorian era is described. A detailed analysis of the roles and relationships of Pollock, Reverdin, and Gosselin is given.

摘要:

The experiences of the author while an Officer in the South African Medical Corps are related. During the Battle of Britain he was attached to the R.A.M.C. and observed the work of pioneers in modern military plastic surgery. On his return to South Africa, he set up the Brenthurst Military Red Cross Hospital for Plastic Surgery and dealt with many thousands of allied battle casualties-South African, British, French, and Polish. The injuries treated included aircraft and tank burns, facial destructions (particularly the nose and eyes), extensive facial fractures, and limb amputations. Various procedures are mentioned. The first plastic surgical journal in English.The Brenthurst Papers,was produced describing these innovations.

摘要:

The etiology of male-pattern alopecia is explained as an interrelationship of three factors, genetic—a single dominant sex-limited gene; endocrine—dihydrotestosterone is the specific hormone responsible; and age. Other factors previously used to explain male-pattern alopecia are de-bunked. Treatment today is directed in the area of endocrinology, basically using either antiandrogens that block 5-α-reductase, thus preventing the formation of dihydrotestosterone, or steroids that interfere with dihydrotestosterone cytosol-nuclear binding protein expression.
