He had, it seemed, been riding behind a cab, and had somehow slipped, with his leg between the spokes of the wheel. When brought into the hospital, it was found that the end of the femur, covered only by its articular cartilage, was projecting out of the soft parts. The skin was cleanly torn, all round, a Tery little way above the flexure of the joint. The popliteal vessels were of course exposed in the wound, but did not bleed. Notwithstanding the little hemorrhage, he was in a state of great depression, and had suffered some severe injury about the pelvis. As this injury, however, did not affect the treatment of the case, and as examination in that part gave great pain, it was not further investigated. On examining the severed leg, it was found that the capsular and crucial ligaments of the knee had been torn close to their insertion into the femur, and the extensor tendon torn away from the patella, leaving that bone attached to the tibia. The most extraordinary feature in the irnjury, however, was that the whole length (as it appeared) of the sciatic nerve remained attached to the leg. The length of nerve above the knee-joint was 191 inches, while the length of the leg was 10 inches only; and the cord terminated above in two smaller branches, which were judged to be parts of the","PeriodicalId":88830,"journal":{"name":"Association medical journal","volume":"4 202","pages":"970"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1856-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1136/bmj.s3-4.202.970","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"29224738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One can readily conceive, supposing the theory of this organ rendering fat fit for absorption to be true, that any implication, however slight, interferes with the process, and leads to emaciation. The previous indigestion seems to prove that an atonic condition of the stomach prepares the way for a more serious state of things; and that the first morbid deposit is accompanied with pain differing from the ordinary uncomfortable dyspeptic sensations. After a time, there is an amount of hypertrophy in the muscular fibres surrounding the pyloric end of the stomach, which greatly aids the passage of alimeat into the duodenum, and then the former paroxysms of pain after a meal vanish; and should the cancerous deposition be going on but slowly, the health may mend, and the patient for a time indulge the hope of recovery. Such a course probably affords the true explanation of the change for the better in the poor woman whose case is first related. Then came a time when the disease so encroached on the muscular substance, that the slightest quantity of food in its passage caused exquisite pain, and she at last refused all nourishment. In the other woman, there was considerable hypertrophy of the muscular coat at the pylorus, and no infiltration of morbid matter; therefore, one might have expected greater freedom from vomiting, and less pain than in the first patient. The reverse was the case; and we can only attribute her more speedy dissolution to disease occupying such an extensive surface, and keeping up direct irritation throughout the whole cavity of the abdomen: added to which, her general appearance indicated a more delicate constitution, and one far less fitted to bear up against disease than was possessed by the former woman.","PeriodicalId":88830,"journal":{"name":"Association medical journal","volume":"4 201","pages":"950-1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1856-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1136/bmj.s3-4.201.950","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"29224734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
