mentation, and (8) specific methods of closing the surgical defect. The intent of this course is to present mastoidectomy as an operation that should be comfortable for the general otolaryngologist to perform. Specific ways to consistently identify and delineate critical anatomical landmarks are presented. Methods to open the facial recess and take down the canal wall when necessary are presented. An open discussion of mastoidectomy with the use of slides and videotape is anticipated so that the general otolaryngologist may return home feeling comfortable about performing this surgery.

Presentation Graphics Using an MS-DOS Computer JOHN R. HOUCK, JR., MD, KEITHF. CLARK,MD and EVAN BATES,MD Oklahoma City, Okla., and Dallas, Texas
Educational objectives: To understand state-of-the-art techniques for producing graphics materials for professional scientific publications and presentations, and to use a popular graphics program to produce graphics materials.
Effective graphics materials are essential for the success of professional, medical, and scientific publications and presentations. Recent developments in personal computer (PC) graphics software and hardware have greatly expanded the opportunities for physicians and scientists to create their own presentation quality graphics quickly, easily, and inexpensively. This course introduces presentation graphics for the MS-DOS PC and is designed for those with little or no computer graphics experience. The first hour will discuss: (1) hardware--computers, monitors, graphics standards, input and output devices; (2) software--input and output options, chart types, image libraries, presentation capabilities, user interfaces; (3) presentation media--monitor, printers, film recorders, slide suppliers, video, multimedia; and (4) practical advice--tips on creating good graphics will help the participant avoid common mistakes. The second hour will feature a demonstration of a graphics software package, followed by participant practice time. The course handout includes a summary of available hardware and software, practical advice on graphics design, a bibliography for further reading, and advice on good poster design.

Introducing Otolaryngic Allergy--Testing the Water JOHN A. FORNADLEY,MD Hershey, Pa.
Educational objectives: To determine whether otolaryngic allergy fits into an individual's practice and marketing strategies, to identify how to become fully credentialed as an otolaryngic allergist, and to operate a safe office allergy practice.
This course was initially offered in 1994. The objective of this course is to give the practicing otolaryngologist or impending graduate a perspective as to how an allergy practice can be introduced into the otolaryngology office in a safe, cost-conscious manner. The initial discussion covers the pros and cons of offering allergy care. The topic then moves to practical considerations about staff assignments, training, and hiring. Details relating to available and recommended continuing education for physician and allied health personnel follow. After this stage is set, discussion progresses to principles of care that should be understood by an otolaryngologist who is considering the practice of allergy. History, diagnostic testing, and treatment principles are briefly outlined. Finally, succinct commentary is provided on billing codes.

Surgical Treatment of Facial Skin Carcinoma SIGMUND L. SAI"rENSPIEL,MD Freehold, N.J.
Educational objectives: To properly assess facial neoplasia, to plan, design, develop, and apply various flaps and grafts for the most effective clinical managment of facial carcinoma, and to learn the pearls and piOCalls and acquire the necessary skills to apply nuances of technique to achieve high cure rates, preserve function, and restore cosmesis.
Facial skin cancer is a prevalent and serious medical entity requiring a broad knowledge of the surgical modalities available for the most effective treatment. The primary goal of such treatment is to efficaciously achieve the highest possible cure rate while preserving function and maintaining or restoring cosmesis. This course presents a practical approach to the diagnostic therapeutic methods of the management of facial skin carcinoma. The design and clinical application of the various flaps and grafts are elaborated on in a simplified and systematic instructional manner discussing the most applicable approaches for each specific location on the nose and face. Indications for and the use of advancement, rotation, transposition (unilobed, bilobed, and rhomboid), and pedicle
