TETANUS of the newborn, formerly nearly always fatal, has been more amenable to therapy in recent years; antiserum, sedation, and penicillin have improved the prognosis.* The nutrition of these patients has continued to present a problem to pediatricians; at the meeting of the American Pediatric Society in 1954 the problem was referred to as very difficult. 8 It is therefore the purpose of the present report to point out the advantages of the percutaneous intravenous drip when combined with the "room within a room" protective effect of an incubator. Most of the baby's needs may be satisfied without repeated pain, handling, noise, flashing lights, or other undesirable stimuli. A decrease in number and intensity of such stimuli is followed by a decreased incidence of those events which are most likely to end the case fatally: tetanic convulsive or laryngospastic episodes.

CONGENITAL megacolon was recognized as a clinical entity in 1887, following Hirschsprung's comprehensive analysis of two patients with this disease. Up until a few years ago the term "Hirschsprung's disease" had been used to describe enlargement of the colon in those patients not having demonstrable organic cause for their megacolon. In 1920 the first comprehensive study of the ganglion cells of a colon from a patient with Hirschsprung's disease was made by Dalla Valle. He reported the absence of ganglion cells in the narrowed segment of bowel distal to the dilated colon. In 1949 Neuhauser described a technique of barium-enema examination for demonstrating the narrowed, aganglionic segment. Following this noteworthy contribution, Swenson described an operative technique for removal of the abnormal segment and restoration of the continuity of the bowel with preservation of the anal sphincters. In this exhibit, special emphasis is directed to the variations in the roentgenographic appearances
