Page 124 - ... selected for the beginning of a vertical incision which extends directly downward for two to three inches to a point just above, and to the inner side of the internal abdominal ring. ADVANTAGES: Traction to expose the appendix is avoided, because this incision, in the external oblique and its aponeurosis, the most resistant structures, is directly over the base of the appendix. It can be enlarged without weakening the abdominal wall. The ilio-hypogastric and ilioinguinal nerves are not injured...

Since 1910, I have used a new incision, with its center over the base of the appendix, and believe that in many cases it is an improvement over those in general use. INCISION: A point one and one-half inches from the right anterior superior spine, on a level with a line connecting the two superior spines, is selected for the beginning of a vertical incision which...
Page 97 - Pneumonia (including bronchopneumonia) was responsible for 83,804 deaths in the registration area in 1914, or 127 per 100,000 — the lowest rate on record.

To drill these holes in one plate, with any degree of accuracy, requires a high degree of skill on the part of the operator; and to drill any number of such plates so that the spacing of the holes in them will correspond closely with those in the first plate requires a very high degree of manual skill, considerable time per plate, and is a very costly operation.
