IMPROVING A MANS CHEEK.

The st. Louis Times of late date
saws: A very uncommon operation in
surgery was performed by DR.. A. P.
Landlord at the Missouri Medical
college. The subject was a young
Arkansas, and has been suffering for
seven years from the effects of exces.
siye doses of mercury. One side of
his face was terribly disfigured, the
flesh having almost entirely disap-
reared and the teeth having grown
into each other. There was COM
nle1e anchyiosis of the lower jaw.
The young man had not taken any
food except IN fluid form for many
wears. The subject was first pnt
ynder the influence of c~hlosoiorm
until he was in a state of complete
auastheria. The first part of the
operation consisted in removing the
exposed aud decayed teeth. A cut
was then made from the opening i'll
the cheek towards the left ear. This
uncovered the joint of the upper and
cred that there bad been a gradual
d%islocation and a general disarrange-
ment of the parts. This prevented

considerable in that direction was
effected. The next stage of the oper-
alton was the taking off of a piece of
skin and flesh from the neck and
transferring it to that part of the
face from which the flesh had long
ago sloughed off. This was a very
defeated piece of business, but was
done with what appeared to be but
little difficulty. The intention was
to loosen the jaws and cover up the
frightful opening::in the choek. What
effort remains to be seen, but the
surgical operation was most skillful'
" executed, and everything done
that could be, for the young mans
relief. The operation lasted nearly
two hours, being the longest ano
most critical that has been attempt
ed at the college this year.
