Modern Surgery
Rebuilds Faces
of Injured Men
By Wilbur S. Forrest
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
Paris, April 28.- (Special.)-- The
French academy of medicine has just
placed on exhibition a wonderful ser-
ies of photographs showing the mar-
velous new surgery of restoring torn
and shattered faces.
The work is that of the famous Dr.
lorestin who, more thn a year ago,
startled science by applying the "plas-
ic art" and grafting bones, tissue, and
sin taken from less conspicious parts
of the body. to rebuild faces of sol-
diers torn or partially carried away by
explosives.
From the initial photographs of hide-
ous wounds, through the various
stages of patient work required to
bring the faces back to normal, the
photographic series is a new wonder of
surgery. The minute character of this
work and the delicate necessity of
matching the various tissues in their
proper places is shown.
Car illage is Modelled to Fit
f cartilage for the nose is necessary
it i; taken from another part of the
body and scrupulously modelled
to fit the need. If mucous membrane
is needed it is almost microscopically
lifted from elsewhere and grafted.
Many soldiers by virtue of this sur-
gry today wear a piece of rib where
the jawbone used to be. Common skin
gixifting is also applied. If it appears
that the operation will leave the pat-
ient with deep scars, the "plastic"
treatment is applied. Faint red lines

I for months, but eventually these lines
become white and are not visible ex-
cept under close examination.
A case in point of the beneficiaries
of this now surgery is an electrician
who is today operating his little es-
tablishment near the Boulevard du
Montparnasse. Before the war this
inan prospered but was forced to leave
his sho with his wife when the mobil-
ization ordler came.
