Operative surgery . a foreign body by the X ray, palmar view. Scarindicated by longitudinally placed pin. Area divided into equal spaces by threetransversely placed pins. Foreign body seen at ulnar side of longitudinal pin. cessful search under general anaesthesia had failed to locate a fragment ofbroken needle. In this, as in other instances, a fine needle was carriedsuperficially through the toughened cuticle in the long axis of the scarcaused by the previous effort. This step caused no pain and the needle washeld securely in place. Three additional needles were then passed throughthe cuticle at right angles to the preceding needle at definite equal distancesfrom each other, thus dividing the corresponding area into four equal spaces.
