Between every two stitches we put a strip of adhesive plaster, which, by keeping the parts in contact, hastened the healing of the incision. We then applied the usual dressings, put her to bed, and prescribed a strict observance of the antiphlogistic regimen.
Pàgina 170 - As soon as the external opening was made the intestines rushed out upon the table, and so completely was the abdomen filled by the tumor that they could not be replaced during the operation, which was terminated in about twenty-five minutes.

Notwithstanding my great care, a quart or more of blood escaped into the abdomen.

Pàgina 171 - In the year 1821, 1 was requested by my friend, Dr. Campbell, lecturer on midwifery, to visit a woman with an abdomen as large as if in the ninth month of gestation. On examination, the tumor occupied the whole abdominal cavity, and appeared to roll from side to side ; the uterus per vaginam felt natural, and her catamenia had been regular, but caused excruciating pain when they occurred.
