Excerpt from A Treatise on the Structure, Diseases, and Injuries of the Blood-Vessels: With Statistical Deductions; Being the Essay to Which the Jacksonian Prize for the Year 1844 Was Awarded by the Royal College of Surgeons of England

IT will be seen by the foregoing preface, that the subject of the original treatise was The Structure and Diseases of the Larger Blood-vessels. More than two years having elapsed since the Prize Essay was written, I have been enabled, by personal observation, and the recorded experience of others, to obtain much additional information. I have likewise taken a more comprehensive view of the matter, and treated of diseases and injuries of the blood-vessels generally and by this means the work has been so much enlarged, that I think it due to the adjudicators to state that they are not in any way responsible for any errors which may have occurred in the introduction of additional matter.

Many of the subjects touched upon are well known to be of so speculative a character, that they must, doubtless, give rise to much difference of Opinion; I have, however, throughout, more especially in the structural and pathological conditions of the blood-vessels, given the result of my own observation, and have not drawn my inferences without careful investigation.
