“…In support of this, they indicate that the available space for the median nerve in the tunnel is reduced by dorsiflexion of the wrist. Kendall (1950) considered that more dynamic factors were operative. He observed that the combination of slight dorsiflexion of the wrist with tension on the flexor tendons caused compression of the nerive at the wrist in the cadaver and that, with the wrist in this position, active contraction of the flexor tendons and of the palmaris longus tendon would tend to compress the median nerve between the two.…”

“…Brain, Wright, and Wilkinson (1947) were probably the first to describe the carpal-tunnel syndrome, its clinical manifestations and surgical treatment. Kendall (1950) described 14 cases of median-nerve palsy arising at the wrist, and distinguishes the " spontaneous" carpal-tunnel syndrome from median palsy after prolonged direct pressure upon the palm. Since 1950 numerous papers on this subject have been written, among them those of Phalen (1951), Kremer, Gilliatt, Golding, and Wilson (1953), Reid (1956), Phalen andKendrick (1957), HJeathfield (1957), and Garland, Bradshaw, and Clark (1957).…”

CATARACT SURGERY BRouTLS 1633 to occur when using alpha-chymotrypsin but that this increase may be due to the slight increase in mechanical intervention. There seemed to be a slightly higher percentage of cases showing increased opacities in the vitreous in this series than in our previous cases. We feel that the difference was not great enough for us to draw a definite conclusion. There was no increase in the amount of the opacities in any case during the follow-up period.In our series the vitreous face was carefully inspected ovei a period of a year. The appearances were compared with earlier cases of our own and with the descriptions and statistics of previous authors relating to uncomplicated intracapsular extractions without the enzyme.We believe that there is no greater tendency either to bulging forward of the vitreous face or to the appearance of rents and tears in the anterior hyaloid membrane when alpha-chymotrypsin is used.There was no tendency towards deterioration in the vitreous face during the 12 months of the study.Our thanks are due to the nursing and clerical staff of the Croydon Eye Unit for their assistance, and in particular to Mrs. S. Tant, medical secretary.

Influence of environmental temperature on the occurrence of non-necrotizing cellulitis of the leg SIR, Non-necrotizing cellulitis of the leg is a common cutaneous bacterial infection whose risk factors include venous insufficiency, lymphoedema and toe-web intertrigo. The role of environmental temperature remains controversial. 1 To study the relationship between environmental temperature and the frequency of non-necrotizing cellulitis of the leg, we reviewed all patients hospitalized with nonnecrotizing cellulitis of the leg in a university hospital in a temperate region of France during a 4-year period, and correlated findings with the local environmental temperature during the same period.Patients included in this study were consecutive patients referred for non-necrotizing cellulitis of the leg from January 1995 to December 1998 in the Departments of Dermatology, Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases of the Rouen University Hospital. The diagnosis of cellulitis of the leg was retrospectively identified using the database of the Medical Information System. The mean and maximum temperatures of each the 8 days prior to the date of hospital admission were obtained from the local meteorological unit for each case. Correlations between the mean and maximum daily temperature of each day from day ) 8 to the admission day (lag 0-8 days) and the daily number of patients hospitalized for cellulitis of the leg were studied using a nonparametric Poisson regression model to adjust for time trends and days of the week (generalized additive model). 2 Eight hundred and ninety-eight patients with cellulitis of the leg [342 men (38%) and 556 women (62%)] were
