There was little trouble during the after-treatment. Fig. 174 illustrates congenital dislocation of the hand of a manof thirty years. There is considerable atrophy and the functionis very much disturbed. Most malformations of the foot are of a similar nature, andtheir therapy has to be viewed from the same points of view.

Among them the case of a boy of three weeks whoseleft lower extremity was normal, while the right one showed short-ening of the femur to the extent of an inch, is especially note-worthy. There was no muscular atrophy. Shortening of thehealthy femur for the purpose of equalization was suggested. Ina similar case, concerning a child of six months, the shortening ofthe healthy femur was successfully performed by the was no disturbance of development observed, the time ofobservations being two years now. Congenital absence of the nasal bones and insufficient develop-ment of the nasal processes of the superior maxilla was observedin a boy of two months (Fig. 176). The patient was ill nour-ished, and the family history was negative. As to congenital
