The staffing and anaesthetic techniques in use at the Children's Medical Relief International Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Unit in Saigon between 1972 and 1975 are considered. The special value of the use of spontaneously respired trichloroethylene and halothane with air enriched with oxygen on the draw-over principle is discussed.
