Excerpt from Practical Observations in Surgery: Illustrated With Cases

Soon after I had entered upon the Medical Profession, I began the custom of committing to paper such cafes, which occurred in my practice, as seemed rare, or peculiarly instructive; hoping that the perusal of them might assist me in the discrimination and cure of diseases.

The following Practical Observations are chiefly drawn from these records. I have selected such as appeared to me the most useful, and such as, I hope, are not altogether unworthy the public notice.

The reader will not find in the following pages many excursions of fancy, or much theoretical reasoning: he must be content with plain facts, recited in a plain manner.

The papers have been drawn up amidst frequent interruptions, and sometimes at considerable intervals.
