摘要:

Canadian plastic surgeons are indeed honored to have been asked to participate in these special issues of Annals of Plastic Surgery, and, as President of our Society, I wish to thank the Editorial Board for this initiative. In this critical period of soul-searching—for plastic surgeons around the world—we feel our voice can be of help in trying to clarify our identity.

摘要:

A classification of fractures of the nasal skeleton is presented, based on both the pattern of impact and the subsequent damage sustained. The fractures are broadly classed into those resulting from lateral force and those from frontal impact. The latter are further subdivided into three levels of planes of injury; knowledge of the applied anatomy of these injuries is shown to be essential. The clinical findings and the management of each group are discussed.

摘要:

I present an operation for breast reduction in which a prosthesis-shaped mass of breast tissue is removed through a transverse inframammary incision. No skin is removed. With time the breast tissue and skin shrink. No skin markings are required. There is very little interference with blood or nerve supply to the skin, areola, and nipple. The breast appears normal postoperatively.

摘要:

Our preliminary experience with tattoo removal utilizing the carbon dioxide laser at the Vancouver General Hospital is reviewed. We developed the method by trial and error until we produced a system yielding an acceptable procedure time with good results.

摘要:

We reviewed the mortality experience in Halifax burn units over the ten-year period January, 1967, to April, 1977. Major complications leading to death were examined and related to initial injury, length of survival, and preexisting disease. When possible, antemortem diagnoses were compared with postmortem pathological findings.Renal failure, sepsis, and pulmonary complications were the most frequent causes of death in burn patients. The patients who died from renal failure tended to expire soon after being burned, and tended to have been inadequately hydrated during the long journey to Halifax. Patients with sepsis did not die within the first 48 hours of being burned. Early excision of the burn wound with homograft replacement might have prevented some of these deaths. Pulmonary complications early in the postburn course appeared related to closed-space and possibly to inhalation injury. However, pneumonia tended to predominate later.

摘要:

Between 1971 and 1977, 40 patients with orbital hypertelorism were operated on by the craniofacial team in Toronto. Results have improved as a result of this experience. Tomography in two planes has revealed four types of medial orbital wall deformity. Cephalographs proved inader quote to understand this three-dimensional problem. Mobilization of the orbits and their correct realignment, with removal of the precise amount of interorbital bone, are only preliminary steps in producing good results. Different techniques for reattachment of the medial canthal ligament, correct orientation of the lateral canthus, changes in methods of nasal skin excision, and the elimination of other facial or eyelid scars are helping to produce more normal looking patients. Simultaneous major intra-oral procedures have been the greatest source of complications. Limitation of this surgery to one team has given sufficient experience to enable a diminution in morbidity and a halving in blood loss and time taken for the operation.

摘要:

An operative procedure has been devised to increase the size of the calf of the leg. This method may be valuable in patients who have thin, spindly legs or disparity of leg size due to previous poliomyelitis infection.The first series of patients on whom the procedure has been carried out, and the complications encountered, are discussed. I wish to emphasize that this is a new procedure and that the best implant has not yet been found.
