A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The time seems to have come when it is proper to gather together and describe in systematic manner the surgical.operations usually spoken of as abdominal. Of some abdominal operations it may truly be said that no complete descriptions have as yet appeared; others are described only in isolated monographs in scattered periodicals ;while a few appear only as casual additions to large works dealing with one special disease or operation. This, I believe, is the first attempt to deal with the practical surgery of the abdomen in one treatise. From the descriptive point of view, the features of abdominal surger}, both in grouping and in detail, lend themselves readily to comprehensive treatment. Most of the operations are performed for diseases which come, in the first instance, within the domain of the physician, and the complete and scientific accounts of these diseases their natural history, in fact must be looked for in works on general pathology and medicine. In their treatment by operation, the surgeon is associated with the physician for a definite practical purpose; which purpose involves, on the part of the surgeon, not only a general acquaintance with operative details, but a special knowledge of the gross anatomy of the disease, and a technical familiarity with the methods of diagnosis.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
