Abstract

Six hundred twenty thousand American soldiers were killed in the Civil War--almost as many fatalities as in all wars from the American Revolution through Vietnam. Those soldiers who did not immediately succumb to their wounds often had injuries that taxed the skills and imagination of the surgeon. A case of extensive destruction of the lower face is presented.

摘要

在美国内战中，有62万美国士兵阵亡——这一死亡人数几乎与从美国独立战争到越南战争期间所有战争的死亡人数总和相当。那些没有立即因伤死亡的士兵，其伤势往往考验着外科医生的技术和想象力。本文展示了一例下面部广泛毁损的病例。
