The paper under review studies Fano manifold \(X\) containing a divisor \(D\simeq {\mathbb P}^{n-1}\) with \(D_{| D}\sim {\mathcal O}(-d)\) for some positive integer \(d\). The result is a short list of essentially three cases. The idea is to study the contraction associated to an extremal ray transverse to the divisor \(D\).
