Less is Sometimes More, Plastic Surgeon SaysIngrid Heggoy

Plastic surgery has made many advances in the last 20 years, but just because a surgeon can change a feature doesn't necessarily mean he should, according to Dr. Ivo Pitanguy, visiting professor from Brazil.

Dr. Pitanguy, chief of plastic and reconstructive surgery, Pontifical Catho­ lic University, Carlos Chagas Post-Graduate Institute, Rio de Janeiro, spoke Jan. 27 to a group of physicians at the Old Medical College building during a two-day visit to Augusta sponsored by the Medical College of Georgia Section of Plastic

Dr. Ivo Pitanguy

Surgery."While you can

practically reconstruct

an entire face, if you do too much, the patient might not recognize

herself in the result," he said. "While we can do much more, sometimes

it is better to do a little less. I think while you make the improvements, you sometimes need to not change too much."

He discussed his philosophy and contribu­ tions in surgery of the aging face and body contouring while in Augusta.

"Our role is to make the passage from youth to age a more smooth one," he said.

The Brazilian surgeon is known for his aesthetic procedures on the face, breasts, abdomen and nose and is an internation­ ally recognized speaker on aesthetic surgery.

... Dean Emeritus(Continued from the cover.)

Medicine. In September 1972, he was named dean of the School of Medicine and medical director of MCG Hospi­ tal and Clinics (then Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital).

Dr. Carter stepped down as dean in Septem­ ber 1975 and returned to his position as professor in the Department of Medicine. He retired from MCG in June 1976, was named professor emeritus that same year and was named dean emeritus in July 1977.

During his career, Dr. Carter also served

as a consultant for Central State Hospital in Milledgeville (then Milledgeville State Hospital) from 1952 to 1959, for the Depart­ ment of Veterans Affairs Medical Center from 1956 to 1967 and for Gracewood State School and Hospital (then Georgia State Training School) from 1957 to 1960.

He was made a fellow of the American College of Chest Physi­ cians in 1958 and a fellow of the American College of Physicians in 1964.

"This contract should prove of benefit not only to Westinghouse and the universities but to our communities in Georgia and South Carolina as well. It is also of major significance to MCG's relationship with the corporate sector."

Each university will contribute resources reflecting its area of

(Cont from cover.)expertise. MCG, for instance, will be involved in projects and studies related to health physics, radiation medicine and biology. Other institu­ tions will deal with ecology, engineering, computing and robotics.

The funding also may enable the schools to obtain new resources, Dr. Greenbaum said,

such as a Ph.D program in health physics jointly sponsored by the Med­ ical College and Georgia Tech. All projects are tentative, depending on the specific needs of Westinghouse. The Department of Energy will add to the $3 million if needed, Dr. Greenbaum said.

WHY TOU SHOULD S1MT PLANNING FOR RETIREMENT WITH TOUR EYES CLOSED.

»r retirement to be the time of your life, you JL have to dream a little about the things you've always wanted to do: travel, explore, start a business. Just imagine...

With a dream and a plan, you can make it happen. Your pension and Social Security > * a should provide a good

basic retirement income, but what about all those extras that make your dreams possible? You'll probably need some additional savings.

THE DREAM IS YOUR OWN. WE CAN HELP YOU WITH THE PLAN.

TIAA-CREF Supplemental Retirement Annuities (SRAs), tax-deferred annuities for people like you in education and research, are a good way to save for retirement and save on taxes now. SRAs are easy you make con­ tributions through your institution before your I taxes are calculated, so you pay less tax now.

You pay no tax on your SRA contributions and earnings until you receive them as income. And saving regularly means your contribu­ tions and their earnings

can add up quickly.What else makes SRAs

so special? A broad range of allocation choices, from the safety of TIAA to the investment accounts of CREF's variable annuity;

no sales charges; a variety of ways to receive income, including annuities, payments over a fixed period, or cash. You may also be able to borrow against your SRA accumulation before you retire*

All this, plus the top investment manage­ ment that has helped make TIAA:CREF the largest retirement system m the country.

So start dreaming and planning for the time of your life. Because the sooner you start your SRA, the greater your savings and your retire­ ment will be.

Dental Students Participate in Clinic Day

Students participate in dental relay races.

Junior dental student Jef Capes won first place in the Medical College of Georgia School of Den­ tistry Student Clinic Day table clinic presentations Jan. 29.

Mr. Capes will present his table clinic, titled "Endosteal Dental Implants: One-Year Clinical Results of a Comparative Investiga­ tion," at the American Dental Association meeting in Orlando, Fla., in October.

Infant-Mortality Study Wins First PlaceChristine Hurley Deriso

The Southern Nurs­ ing Research Society has awarded a Medical College of Georgia graduate student first place for her research into infant mortality.

Julie Zadinksy, a School of Nursing doc­ toral student, won first place in the society's graduate-student poster session for her study, "Preventability of Infant Mortality in a Rural Community." The society honored outstanding nursing research during its Feb. 6 annual confer­ ence in Nashville, Tenn. Ms. Zadinksy's research involved compiling info­ rmation about the 26 infants who died in Jefferson County, Geor­ gia from 1985 to 1988.

Jefferson County, a rural county about 30 miles south of Augusta, had an infant mortality rate of 20.7 deaths per 1,000 live births per year during that time period.

MCG's School of Nursing Rural Health

Outreach Program, begun in 1988, encom­ passes several projects aimed at improving health care in the county Georgia's fifth most economically disadvan taged and improving the infant mortality rate. Ms. Zadinsky researched the circumstances leading to infant deaths in an attempt to maxi­ mize the program's effectiveness. She con­ ducted the research with Dr. Janet Boettcher, then- director of the Rural Health Outreach Pro­ gram.

"The point was to help the project better target its services," she said.

She interviewed the mothers and health-care providers of the deceased infants. Thirteen of the infants died from compli­ cations of prematurity, seven from congenital anomalies, five from infectious diseases and one from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. She

compiled information about the deaths and presented summaries to a panel of MCG pediatri­ cians, neonatologists, pediatric nurses and social workers . She then asked the panelists to assess how potentially preventable each death was.

The panelists held diverse opinions about preventability," Ms. Zad insky said, but several generalizations material­ ized. Their responses indicated several prevent­ able circumstances that contributed to the high infant mortality rate, including lack of. prena­ tal care, family planning, follow-up health care and parenting skills.

The Rural Health Outreach Program implemented the findings into its projects, which include home infant health visits, free health services at central community locations and support groups for impoverished mothers.

Dental relay races were the other highlight of the day. The senior class team of Denise Attaway, Bob Shiflet an Christy Stockkstad won the amalgam relay, in which teams from each class and one represent­ ing the faculty competed to fill a cavity in model of a mouth in under two minutes.

The junior class team of Suran Turk, Lisa Brewer, Lisa West, Carmen Vaughn and

Barbara Marshall won the operatory set-up realy. Senior Gary Holmes won the Wacky Wax-Up, a free-style wax- sculpting contest, with his sculpture featuring the dental school as a board game.

The featured speak­ er for the day was Dr. Charles English, part- time assistant professor of prostho-dontics and an Augusta dentist, who discussed implant dentistry.

Career Opportunity Day

Hospitals and businesses throughout the state and beyond were represented at MCG's Career Oppor­ tunity Day Feb. 18. The event matches recruiters with nursing and allied health students.
