Book synopsis

Excerpt from Harelip and Cleft Palate: With Special Reference to the Operative Treatment and Its Results Our object in writing tins book has been to describe in full detail the methods that we have found most useful in the treatment of harelip and cleft palate. We have endeavoured to illustrate the subject fully. In the case of harelip this has been done chiefly by photographs, for the majority of which we are indebted to Miss Katherine Wortham. For most of the illustrations of cleft palate the method adopted has been as follows: First, a cast of the teeth and hard palate has been obtained, and from this a drawing has been carefully made to scale. Details of the soft palate, which could not be obtained from a cast, have then been added and the whole drawing compared with the original before being finished, A drawing of the condition of the palate having been thus obtained, the various steps of the operation have been sketched during the actual performance by our artist, Mr. S. A. Sewell, his sketches being checked and corrected immediately afterwards by ourselves. We are greatly indebted to him for attending a large number of our operations, and thus familiarising himself with the details of a somewhat complicated proceeding.
