A manual of military surgery, for the use of surgeons in the Confederate States Army; with explanatory plates of all useful operations . o the lower jaw at the canine fossa. Fig. 3.—Removal of upper maxillary. The line of incision throughthe cheek is seen in fig. 4. The flap is dissected up from the bone, andthe nasal cartilages separated from the nasal process of the maxilla ;the bone is readily isolated from its intimate attachment by passingone blade of a strong Listons forceps through the mouth, the otherthrough the anterior nares, thereby dividing the roof of the mouth orpalate process of the superior maxillary bone. One blade of the for-ceps can again be placed in the upper part of the nares; the other inthe orbit to divide the floor of the orbit. The malar connection can bedivided with the saw or by the bone forceps, by placing one blade inthe orbit, the other in the temporal fossa. Fig. 4 shows the curved line of incision from the zygomatic arch tothe angle of the mouth ; also, how the wound is dressed by severalpoints of interrupted suture, and how little deformity results from thisresection. r i c i r i a z.
