eye and backward to the tragus of the ear, then over the ear to the transverse incision. Also, an in- 

 cision from the lower end of the mastoid process backward to the occipital protuberance, connecting 

 the ends of the transverse and median incisions. Begin at the vertex and turn the skin down and off. 

 Much care must be exercised to turn off the skin only, as the three outer layers of the scalp are closely 

 connected together. The nerves and vessels should then be carefully exposed.
