Sinopsis
Excerpt from Practical Intestinal Surgery, Vol. 2
Luecke of Strasburg, who did eight operations, with seven recoveries. It was an unsafe operation under the old method of time-consuming suturing, but mod ern aggressive surgery, with its plates and rings, can do the whole operation in thirty minutes, making it a safe and reliable procedure. When we consider that 35 per cent. Of all cancers attack the stomach, and of all stomachic cancers, 60 per cent. Attack the pylorus, then the operation rises to supreme importance. It appears reasonable that gastro-enterostomy should be substituted for pylorectomy in cancer of the pylorus, for autopsies demonstrate that one-quarter of pyloric cancers exhibit carcinomatous deposits in the liver. In such cases the dangerous pylorectomy is almost useless, while the safer and more easily performed gastro-enterostomy will relieve indescribable suffer ing to the end of life. Even for non-malignant neo plasms, stenosis, and occlusions of pylorus, gastro enterostomy has all the advantages of pylorectomy in physiological processes, besides less shock and violence to the system, as well as a supremely significant short operation. Time, and plates and rings, are the ele ments of success in intestinal anastomosis. I con sider the plates and rings just as applicable to man as to other Ianimals. The rock and base of gastro enterostomy has already been successfully laid in animal experimentation.

Excerpt from Practical Intestinal Surgery, Vol. 2
Gastro-enterostomy is a term introduced into medicine to imply a communication between the stomach and intestine. It is an operation for the formation of an artificial or bi-mucous fistula between the stomach and some point in the small intestine. The same operation may be extended to some part of the colon. It was first performed by Wölfler of Vienna, in 1881, who began an operation for pylorectomy, and being unable to execute it from local conditions, ended the scene with a gastro-enterostomy. Since that time Billroth, Lauenstein, Senn, Rydygier, Barker, Rockowitz, Stamm, Ranshoff, Page, Monastryski, Czerny, Hahn, Winslow, Postowski, and others, have practiced and advocated the operation. The records of some 105 operations for gastro-enterostomy are extant, but I surmise some of these are repeated reports of the same cases. The object of the operation is to overcome obstruction of the pylorus by directing the fæcal circulation through another channel. Gastro-enterostomy is a rival and a substitute for pylorectomy, and is fast displacing the latter operation.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This surgical text from 1888 provides an in-depth exploration of bowel surgery, focusing on intestinal obstruction as the primary cause of death for one in every 350 individuals. The author, a leading figure in abdominal surgery, brings many years of experience and experimentation to bear on the subject. The book describes in detail the author's experiments on dogs to demonstrate the causes and effects of intestinal obstruction. These experiments highlight the role of reex irritation at the site of strangulation, which drives the cascade of destructive changes that lead to gangrene and infection. In addition to exploring the physiological processes underlying intestinal obstruction, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of the surgical techniques and materials available at the time for addressing this condition. The author's innovative use of rawhide and rubber plates for intestinal anastomosis, along with his advocacy for clean surgical practices, reect the emerging understanding of surgical principles in the late 19th century. By dissecting and analyzing the complexities of intestinal obstruction, this book significantly advanced the field of abdominal surgery and laid the groundwork for future advancements in the treatment of this life-threatening condition.
