It largely embracesthe treatment of lesions of the face, a region in which plasticsurgery finds its most frequent and important apphcations.Another and no less important class of lesions will also befound to have occupied a large share of the authors atten-tion, viz., cicatricial contractions following burns. Whilethese cases have a very strong claim upon our commisera-tion, and should stimulate us, as surgeons, to the greatestefforts for their relief, they have too often in the past beendismissed as hopelessly incurable. The satisfactory resultsobtained in the cases reported in this volume will encour-age other surgeons, we trust, to resort with greater hope-fulness in the future to operative interference.
