We point out that the results of relativistic mean field calculations for neutron-deficient Pt, Hg, and Pb isotopes by S. K. Patra {ital et} {ital al}. [Phys. Rev. C {bold 50}, 1924 (1994)] and S. Yoshida {ital et} {ital al}. [Phys. Rev. C {bold 50}, 1398 (1994)] contradict the large body of experimental data on these nuclei. In particular, we question their predictions of deformed ground states in the Pb isotopes and prolate and superdeformed ground states in the Hg isotopes. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
