The efficacy of bismuth in similar affections, under certain circumstances, which I have myself personally witnessed, is in favour of the same doctrine; and, indeed, I think it may be conclusively shown from these and a variety of other circumstances, that many forms of menorrhagia owe their origin chiefly to an irmrtable or disturbed state of the stomach and digestive organs, and that where these pathological conditions coexist, we are by no means justified in assuming that the latter is the mere consequence of the former. On the other hand, the history of such cases, if carefully investigated, will often demonstrate that it had rather preceded than followed upon it; and this circumstance, which is especially shown in the foregoing cases, is of extreme importance in practice, for by bearing it in mind, we shall avoid directing our remedies merely to an effect or consequence, whilst the original cause is overlooked.","PeriodicalId":88928,"journal":{"name":"London journal of medicine","volume":"4 39","pages":"236-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1852-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1136/bmj.s2-4.39.236","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"29257801","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}

In this case, generally speaking, the ear only will be affected. In many instances, the transplanting of the gonorrhcal virus from the vagina or urethra cannot be traced at all, so that the origin of the malady cannot be accurately ascertained. It seems, after all, that for the development of the aural gonorrhea, a certain disposition towards inflammatory disease of the ear is required.\" As far as the prognosis is concerned, it may be called good, when the blenorrhmal inflammation is circumscribed to the meatus auditorius, when it does not arise from metastatis, but by inoculation of the gonorrhueal virus, and when complicated with other diseases: for the skin of the meatus auditorius does not possess enough of the nature of a mucous membrane, for a blenorrhea in its most vehement form to develope itself.

In the two following cases, entirely dissimilar in their nature and terminations, it will be seen that some of the symptoms were most unlike; while there were others which resembled each other sufficiently to show the great care required in the examination and diagnosis of this class of maladies. The first case is interesing, inasmuch as it presents an instance of the rare localisation of tubercle in the uterus, and the still more rare example of its deposition in the ovaria. Rokitansky even states that he has never seen an instance of ovarian tubercle. The account of this case, and the autopsy, are chiefly taken from the notes of Mr. J. W. Trotter, one of the resident medical officers of St. Mary's Hospital.","PeriodicalId":88928,"journal":{"name":"London journal of medicine","volume":"4 38","pages":"109-18"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1852-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1136/bmj.s2-4.38.109","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"29257791","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}

Why then should it be assumed that the uterine organs are incapable of the same reparative actions? I do not, as I have observed, wish to disparage the utility of topical treatment within certain limits; but I affirm, that it is an error to suppose that uterine derangement, which has sprung, as it were, out of a disordered state of the general healtb, or which is perpetuated by it, can be successfully treated by local measures, whilst its constitutional origin or cause is overlooked. Some, indeed, of the cases which I have reported prove the truth of this remark; for im several, local cauterisation, etc., had been assiduously employed for a lengthened period, by very competent practitioners,-and yet with but little success. Of this, at least, I am assured, that in proportion as the correct pathology of uterine disease is better understood,-in proportion as its relations to constitutional causes are more fully appreciated, and the earlier indications of uterine disorder more carefully investigated, will our treatment of them be more successful; and thus also will the necessity for those specific measures be done away with, which it must be equally painful for the practitioner to employ, as for the patient to submit to.","PeriodicalId":88928,"journal":{"name":"London journal of medicine","volume":"4 38","pages":"135-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1852-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1136/bmj.s2-4.38.135","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"29257794","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}
