I have in my mind a striking case that occurred to me early in practice, when I followed the routine, and, in a friend of my own, divided a carbuncle most freely.

Page 136 - Bell does not pretend to say that this mode of operation will effect a permanent cure of cancerous cases, but he thinks that the plan presents various and considerable advantages over extirpation by the knife, as in producing much less shock to the system, in removing the tumor alone with but little of the surrounding breast, and in postponing, in malignant cases, for a longer period the recurrence of the disease.
Page 636 - A sharp-pointed bistoury is then passed through the upper lip — previously stretched and raised by an assistant — close to the ruins of the former columna, and about an eighth of an inch on one side of the mesial line. The incision is continued down, in a straight direction, to the free margin of the lip ; and a similar one, parallel to the former, is made on the opposite side of the mesial line, so as to insulate a flap about a quarter of an inch in breadth, and composed of skin, mucous membrane,...
Page 748 - The tumour has no impulse afforded to it, on coughing, or during any other exertion of the abdominal muscles ; unless there be a communication between the cavity of the tunica vaginalis, and that of the abdominal peritoneum — as in the case of congenital hernia. The accumulation generally consists of a straw-coloured serum ; and sometimes loose solid bodies are found, as in serous cysts elsewhere.
Page 292 - Bap, and enters the point of the knife close to his finger, bringing it round through skin and fat below the patella to the spot pressed by his thumb, then, turning the edge downwards at a right angle with the line of the limb, he passes it through to the spot where...
Page 335 - ... soaked in vinegar intervening: this must be kept moist, or there is little or no action of the battery. Within a few hours the effect is perceptible, and in a day or two the cure is complete in a great majority of cases In a few instances a longer time is required.
