Pàgina 175 - The femoral or other large artery should then be drawn out by a tenaculum or spring-forceps, and tied. The capsular ligament being well opened, and the ligamentum teres divided, the knife should be passed behind the head of the bone thus dislocated, and made to cut its way out, care being taken not to have too large a quantity of muscle on the under part, or the integuments will not cover the wound, under which circumstance a sufficient portion of muscular fibre must be cut away.
Pàgina 40 - ... the wall, but rendering the canal almost impervious. The vessels of the brain were generally healthy, except a yellow spot or two in the coats of those at the base of the brain. The heart was enlarged ; several broad white patches externally. The right valves were healthy, so also were the...
Pàgina xxxvii - Brown's new operation for treating ovarian dropsy consists of excising a portion of the sac, returning the remaining portion into the peritoneal cavity, and closing the wound by sutures, allowing any fresh portion of the fluid secreted by the remainder of the cyst to escape into the peritoneal cavity, and to be there taken up by absorption, and discharged by the kidneys. This plan was brought to Mr. Brown's mind by reflecting upon the numerous cases in which a spontaneous cure followed an accidental...
Pàgina 41 - ... that many cases of partial and temporary paralysis suddenly ensuing in one or more limbs of young persons, especially if accompanied with signs of cardiac disease, might be due to interruption of a proper supply of nutriment to the brain by the temporary plugging up of a principal cerebral artery by fibrine, detached from a diseased valve on the left side of the heart.
Pàgina 106 - ... results exhibited in a table appended to the paper. The subject of jaundice next received attention. This was a disease that manifestly resulted from the conveyance into the blood of bile pigment, a constituent of the bile which was essentially excrementitious, and intended to be cast out with the fecal matter. In many cases it existed only as retained excretion ; in others it seemed to be formed in excessive quantity, as in the acute yellow atrophy of the liver. Yellow matter was often found...
Pàgina 51 - ... independently of this or that mode of treatment, a decided tendency to depress the general powers of life — some more, some less; and that, with all, a very decided direct antiphlogistic treatment is hazardous, — with some extremely so, — and that in none is it absolutely necessary; but, with others, there is no safety for the patient, unless the treatment from the beginning be of a decidedly supporting and stimulating nature.
Pàgina 346 - To facilitate the exhibition of the parts, the assistant on the right side of the patient introduces into the vagina the lever speculum,* and then, by lifting the perineum, stretching the sphincter, and raising up the recto-vaginal septum, it is as easy to view the whole vaginal canal as it is to examine the fauces by turning a mouth widely open, up to a strong light.
Pàgina 180 - ... distance afterwards. The popliteal artery may also be divided in addition, and either of these cases will render amputation necessary; for the ball must be taken out on the fore-part, and the general inflammation of the joint will either destroy the patient in a short time, or, after much distress and hazard, leave him no alternative but amputation. If a ball lodge in the...
Pàgina 28 - Here, also, we have fright in the history; ve find that, about three weeks before the appearance of the symptoms, she was met and accosted by a drunken, man, and was very much alarmed at the time ; but you will observe that, in this case, so long an interval as three weeks elapsed between the occurrence of the fright and the manifestation of the characteristic symptoms. Although this interval seems very long, I think we may fairly refer the excitement of the disease to this cause ; in many instances,...
Pàgina 103 - The oily contents of the cells were subject to great variation, both in the same individual and in different classes of animals ; the less perfect the type of the respiratory process, the greater the quantity of oily matter in the hepatic cells. The cells in their general mass constituted the hepatic parenchyma ; this might be subdivided into smaller portions, called lobules, which were separated from each other more or less completely by fissures, the fissures themselves being continuous with canals...
