Those removed consisted of the left maxillary glands, just below theorbit, the lymphatic vessels (and ? glands) in the left buccinator region, bothsubmaxillary, salivary and lymphatic glands, both submental glands, and the 184 OPERATIONS UPON THE NOSE left superficial and deep cervical glands. To expose the glands below the jawand to provide a flap to repair the defect in the nose and cheek the incisions8, 5, 4, 3, 2 were made and the outlined flap was fixed by sutures into itsnew bed. A split made in the flap (Fig. 283 insert 2-2-x) aided in fashion-ing the new nostril. The wound in the neck was easily closed. The resultwas satisfactory after some subsidiary patching operations had been •.# ...r Fig. 283.—Curtis operation. {After Curtis.)
