About this book
Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery is a book by Frederick Strange Kolle, M.D., with one colored plate and five hundred and twenty-two illustrations in text. The preface says that the object of the author has been to place before the profession a thoroughly practical and concise treatise on plastic and cosmetic surgery. A chapter headed Principles of Plastic Surgery says that plastic surgery is resorted to in covering defects of the skin due to congenital or traumatic malformation, injuries, burns, the removal of neoplasms, or the ulcerative processes of disease.
The text says that the incisions in plastic surgery are to be made obliquely into the skin rather than at right angles to the surface, the former permitting of better apposition. The text says that the area is injected with normal salt solution until the intranasal wound has healed, which usually takes place in about five days. The sterilization of silk is accomplished, the text says, by boiling it for one hour in a 1-20 carbolic solution and then keeping it in a 1-50 similar solution (Czerny).
