2027. Daguerreotype of the last of the above cases before, and of the first after, the operation.

Exfoliation of bone from the forehead, after a rhinoplas- tic operation. (See No. 1309.)

2028. Cast, in plaster, by Mr. John O. Green, one of the house- pupils, of the face of a man, upon whom M. Nelaton, of Paris, had done a very unsuccessful operation two years be- fore. (Hospital, 125, 48.) Five years before his entrance he was struck upon the nose ; in six months it sloughed, and a few weeks afterward it healed. A flap was taken from the cheek to supplant the deficiency ; and he entered the hospital for some further operation, but nothing was done. 1866. Dr. H. J. Bigelow.

For Dr. "Warren's case of "Eiloides" see No. 3055.

2029. The hand, with a part of the forearm of an old man, that was amputated at the hospital, and has been preserved en- tire in spirit ; bearing a very striking resemblance to Mr. Paget's figure of a case of epithelial cancer in the same place. (Surg. Pathology, p. 567.) The disease arises from the back of the hand, is of a nearly circular form, and about 3 in. in diameter, considerably raised above the surrounding surface, with the edges overlapping the base, coarsely granulated, and firm to the feel. 1847.

Dr. J. C. Warren.

2030. A leg and foot, preserved entire in spirit, and showing a strong flexion, with distortion of the foot, extensive cica- trization over the lower half of the leg, and a large epithe- lial cancer below the knee, in a state of open ulceration.

From a man, set. twenty-six years. Reported on admis- sion into the hospital (75, 83) that when three years old a log fell upon his leg, and broke both bones, ruptured the tendo-achillis, and stripped the skin completely off. This was followed by eversion of the foot, and a tilting up of the toes ; and for the last eleven years he had walked en- tirely upon his heel. For; the last three years there had been an ulcer below the knee, and that occasionally healed. During the last year, after a long walk, and getting wet, an ulcer broke out above the ankle, and extended half way up the front of the leg, but soon healed. As this healing
