The purpose of this presentation is to describe and demonstrate the characteristics of the cultured cells taken originally from a patient with cervical carcinoma. This objective is achieved with the aid of time lapse photography taken at various speeds. In this presentation the harvesting of the cells and the preparation of the culture are first described and demonstrated in a step-by-step fashion. The development of the freshly transferred culture is then demonstrated as itis photographed at one frame per minute.

This film shows, by means of cinefluorography and animation, the location of the esophagus and surrounding organs, various irregularities of the esophageal wall created by carcinomas, and the appearance of the area after radiation treatment.

The film begins with a statement that the abandonment of prudery in recent years has made possible the teaching of human reproduction to "the adolescent and mature." The position and function of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries is presented. With drawings, legends, and post-mortem specimens, the film traces human reproduction from ovulation through fertilization, segmentation, implantation, growth and maturity of the fetus, and enlargement of the uterus. The function of the umbilical cord is explained.

Artist-animator-medical illustrator Frank Armitage combines footage from his professional medical animations with historical images to provide a lecture about the history of anatomical illustration, as well as the present-day (circa 1970) uses of anatomical animation in medical film. Why the film was made or where it was presented is unknown: no title or credits appear. Armitage had then recently worked on the set-design for the film Fantastic Voyage as well as on animation for surgical instruction films and Walt Disney studios.

In animated cartoons, an analogy is made between a man with a badly functioning car and a man with physical symptoms which could indicate the presence of a neoplasm. The various stages of denial are illustrated. Unprofessional advice is heard, and quick fix remedies are tried. The car owner finally goes to a good garage and pays heavily to have his car repaired, a bill which would have been small if he had taken his car in at the first sign of trouble. The man decides not to make the same mistake with his body that he made with his car.

Presents symbols used in construction of the human pedigree. Illustrates autosomal dominal inheritance using pedigrees of brachydactyly and achondroplastic dwarfism. Pedigrees of albinism, Crigler-Najjar syndrome, and Morquio syndrome illustrate autosomal recessive inheritance. X-linked hemophilia and Vitamin D-resistant rickets pedigrees, along with pedigrees of various kinds of mating, show the consequences of X-linked inheritance to male and female offspring.

[This film has been edited from its full length of 64 minutes] In a filmed lecture format, obstetrician Dr. Joseph DeLee demonstrates on anatomical models (in the lecture hall) and with live patients (filmed previously) the use of forceps to deliver an infant, as well as the proper technique for episiotomy. He begins by showing images of scores of different forceps' designs from all over the world, mentioning each inventor by name. He explains why forceps are a necessary instrument for the safe delivery of many babies, and how to assess a patient's need for this intervention.

The purpose of this motion picture is to alert surgeons to postoperative velopharyngeal-incompetence complications in adenotonsillectomy. The film was produced at the request of ear, nose, and throat specialists involved in court consultations and lawsuits brought after tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy procedures produced excessive post-operative hypernasal speech. While produced specifically for ENT specialists, the film will be of interest to oral surgeons, orthodontists, prosthodontists, and speech pathologists.

This training film shot at the Surgical Division of the Wilhelminen Spital in Vienna shows two thoracoplasties. Shots include close-ups of the instrument table containing Shoemaker rib cutters, Sauerbruch cutters, and Luer-forceps which were modified by Sauerbruch; anesthesia equipment and use; and the surgery. Surgery includes: draping and marking, incision, resection of paravertebral origins of ribs, smoothing of stumps, drain insertion, and closure.

Louis Pasteur's early days and his contributions to science are dramatically presented. The challenges Pasteur faced from longtime members of the Academy of Medicine in Paris, as he made discoveries they were not progressive and enlightened enough to accept, are tersely enumerated. The case of Joseph Meister, a boy attacked by a rabid dog and treated with a Pasteur vaccine never before tried, is re-enacted.

This program presents a case of a thirty year old man with Marfan's syndrome to illustrate the surgical procedure for correcting a dissecting aneurysm of the ascending aorta with aortic valvular insufficiency. The patient's preoperative physical findings and aortograms which indicate the need for this surgery are presented. In this instance the entire ascending portion of the aorta is involved. The transverse and descending aorta are not considered unusual.
