We have done subpectoral augmentations on 100 women to enlarge the small or hypomastic breast to a pleasing degree. These operations were performed in a major hospital operating room, under local anesthesia, on an ambulatory basis. No complications were encountered. Our goal, and that of our patients, was to enlarge the small breast to a pleasing degree which would harmonize with the body contour and form, and to maintain the natural consistency of the breast and the normal sensation of the nipple and the breast as a whole. This goal was reached and our patients have been appreciative and pleaded. There was no postoperative weakness of the pectoralis muscle, and we have seen no evidence of capsule contracture. The group represents about one percent of our overall experience with augmentation mammaplasty.

A clinical and pathological review of 67 cases of congenital giant nevi and of 5 cases of malignant transformation in congenital giant nevi brings out the following. 1. The lesions should be regarded as premalignant. 2. An aggressive approach is advocated to remove the lesion before school age. 3. Staged excisions, combined with skin grafting and/or local rotation flaps, are advocated. 4. Any nodularity or ulceration developing within a congenital giant nevus should be regarded as an ominous sign. 5. A long-term follow-up is necessary in those patients having subtotal excisions.

We present a simple operation, performed under local anesthesia, to restore essential movement to the side of a lower lip paralyzed by injury to the mandibular branch of the facial nerve. The operation consists of a limited lateral resection of the paralyzed lower lip, plus transposition of the segment of orbicularis muscle from the paralyzed lower lip to the normal upper lip, through a subcutaneous tunnel.

An attempt was made to produce tumor immunity in 193 patients who had melanoma, 160 of whom had metastases and 33 of whom did not. Four stages of treatment are outlined. The patients whose disease was confined to the skin, subcutaneous tissues, and lymph nodes seemed to benefit most. The treatment was of no benefit to patients whose disease had progressed to the visceral, skeletal, or central nervous systems.
