The assessment of hand function: Part III--the final analysis.

Some common surgical procedures, practised to improve the function of the rheumatoid hand, have been subjected to a prospective and objective evaluation. This analysis has been based on the concept of the assessment of hand function by measurement of individual digital forces and the results clearly justify surgical intervention. In addition, function is improved in those digits belonging to the hand operated upon but not themselves undergoing surgery.

Male transsexualism in England: sixteen cases with surgical intervention.

The syndrome of transsexualism is now regarded as a dinstinct entity separate from transvestism and homosexuality (Benjamin, 1966; Green and Money, 1969). It refers to those patients who since childhood have been convinced of their wrong sex assignment and who wish to attain the sexual characteristics of the opposite sex and to live as a member of that sex. The present report is an initial one referring to the first group of transsexual patients studied at a postgraduate teaching hospital by a multidisciplinary team. Their study has three aims: first, to compare this group of patients with other series; second, to evolve a surgical technique of sex reassignment; and, finally, to assess the success of such surgery in allowing the patients to attain a satisfactory adjustment in their new gender role.
