Excerpt from Surgical Observations: With Cases and Operations

This volume contains some results of surgical experience, and develops and illustrates what was advanced by the author in an address delivered before the Massachusetts Medical Society, and entitled Recent Progress in Surgery.

The cases which are cited have been mostly derived from practice in the Massachusetts General Hospital; and some of them have been previously published. Many others might have been given; but it has been thought proper to relate only those of which the histories have been well ascertained.

As a convenient method of classification, the regions of the body have been used; and this order has been kept through the book, except in the last chapters, which relate to Gunshot Wounds, Tumors, and Miscellaneous Cases. It is not pro posed in, this volume to comprehend every surgical subject, or to enter into much descriptive detail; but simply to indicate the chief points in the cases and operations which are recorded.
