He retired early to bed, resolving to use a similar diet on the following day. " Soon after he lay down, he began to feel some unusual and distressing sensations about the praecordia, as if he were continually on the...

It is evident, also, that the hernia must have been produced while the original tunica vaginalis remained...
Seite 223 - I have performed have led me to think, that the stricture in this species of hernia is most commonly formed by the ring, and that it is removed with greater ease and safety by a cautious dilatation towards the pubis, than in any other direction. " Mr. Cooper, amongst other objections which he has urged against the operation inwards, states, that if the hernia is large, this mode of dividing the stricture is not sufficient to allow of the return of the protruded parts, for it gives but little additional...
Seite 44 - March, many of the patients expectorated mucus tinged with blood. On the 8th of March there were four patients in No. 1. and three in No. 4, who had expectorated mucus tinged with blood.
