They were situated beneath the basis of the jaw, upon the mylohyoideus muscle. They resisted the attempts which had been made to discuss them; and had not been removed, from an apprehension that a dangerous hoemorrhage would take place in the operation. The glands had gradually, though very slowly, attained their present magnitude, for the disease was of fifteen years' duration. The surrounding parts were not affected. Sir Charles Blicke undertook and accomplished the removal of the diseased gland, the structure of which was exactly as has been described. This case is related in the first place, as it shows most clearly the usual characteristics of this species of diseased structure; which are those of slowly increasing, of not being prone to inflammation, or tending to suppuration. ***It may not be improper to mention, though it is irrelevant to the present subject, that in the operation, the external maxillary artery was unavoidably divided. It did not, however, bleed immediately after the operation, so that this circumstance was not perceived; and the edges of the wound were brought together by one suture---' (Quote Case III page 35-36). ***John Abernethy [1764 - 1831 ] was a surgeon and medical practitioner, who spent much of his career at St Bartholomew's [Bart's] as a surgeon and lecturer. He began to give lectures at his house in Bartholomew Close, which were so well attended that the governors of the hospital built a theatre (1790-1791), and Abernethy thus became the founder of the medical school of St Bartholomew's. He held the office of assistant-surgeon for twenty-eight years until 1815, when he was elected principal surgeon. ***An early antiquarian edition of Surgical Observations by John Abernethy, complete in original plain boards. ***Of interest to collectors of historical surgical and medical antiquarian titles.
