Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progressive Medicine, Vol. 1: A Quarterly Digest of Advances, Discoveries, and Improvements in the Medical and Surgical Sciences; March, 1899 A somewhat intimate acquaintance with medical literature for a considerable period of time has convinced the editor of this publication that even if one has brought to him weekly the best medical literature of the world it is impossible to keep up with it in the sense of grasping its details and assimilating its really valuable practical facts in such a way that they can be applied at the bedside. Original researches, disputations, records of epoch-making cases or discoveries come to one so fast and so voluminously that a life's work could be found by the physician who attempted to study all the views presented to him. The state of the progressive medical man of to-day is that of a man who, while hungry for food, has thrust upon him such a mass of pabulum prepared in so many forms by so many cooks that it is possible for him to get but a taste of many dishes from which he might obtain much pleasure and strength if he but knew their real value and design. Often the technical appearance of an article staggers his mental digestion, and he casts it from him as being too difficult a morsel for him to assimilate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progressive Medicine, Vol. 1: A Quarterly Digest of Advances, Discoveries, and Improvements in the Medical and Surgical Sciences When the first volume of Progressive Medicine for 1899 appeared, a year ago, I outlined in its preface the object for which this publication was instituted, and I can do nothing better at the present time than repeat those words. That some authoritative summary of current medical literature presented in narrative form was needed by a large number of the profession is proved by the success of the publication during the first twelve months of its existence, and a still more intimate acquaintance with medical literature has convinced me that even if one has brought to him weekly the best medical literature of the world it is impossible to keep up with it in the sense of grasping its details and assimilating its really valuable practical facts in such a way that they can be applied at the bedside. Original researches, disputations, records of epoch-making cases or discoveries come to one so fast and so voluminously that a life's work could be found by the physician who attempted to study all the views presented to him. The state of the progressive medical man of to-day is that of a man who, while hungry for food, has thrust upon him such a mass of pabulum prepared in so many forms by so many cooks that it is possible for him to get but a taste of many dishes from which he might obtain much pleasure and strength if he but knew their real value and design. Often the technical appearance of an article staggers his mental digestion, and he casts it from him as being too difficult a morsel for him to assimilate. There are at the present time numerous "Annuals" or "Year-books" published with the object of recording in condensed form the greater part of the medical literature of the year, but in nearly all of them the process of "boiling down" has been practised without first sifting the useful from the useless, with the result that the physician has presented to him a mass, concentrated, it is true, but so varying in quality that the good can only be separated from the bad by a process as difficult as that needed for the utilization of the crude material.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progressive Medicine, Vol. 1: A Quarterly Digest of Advances, Discoveries and Improvements in the Medical and Surgical Sciences; March 1919 With regard to the actual technic in dealing with wounds, the author seems disposed to prefer exposure by the ap method. To guard against hernia, he advocates Sargent's plan of loosening the pericranium from the scalp in such a way as to allow it to slide and to be sutured beneath the orifice in the latter. The brain can thus be perfectly covered in and the cutaneous wound quickly cicatrizes. Whenever an osteoplastic ap is practicable and, in this respect, De Martel's technic seems to differ from the majority of operators, he uses it because it affords a freer avenue of exposure, leaves no defect, serves temporarily for purposes of decompression, and is not followed by a cerebral hernia of mechanical origin, as is so often the case with the small classical trephining.

We have discussed with Pancoast, our roentgenologist, the possibility of substituting for air some inert solution, which like barium in the gastro - intestinal tract, would throw the necessary shadow. Pancoast believes this is a perfectly feasible proposition and it remains to find in the experimental laboratory an inert substance that will fulfill the requirements.

It may be summarized as follows: A primary cleansing of the wound. The transmission of the patient as soon as possible to the hospital where he will convalesce. The taking of x-ray pictures. The excision of the scalp and bone wound. A limited and careful removal of foreign bodies. The covering of the exposed brain. The closure of the wound, with superficial draining, and a pro longed rest in bed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Death in these cases is due to increased intracranial tension acting most forcibly on the nuclei in the region of the fourth ventricle; the amount of uid in the cerebellar fossa is almost always much increased even when there is no obvious compressing agent, such as hemorrhage, foreign body, etc. An attempt should be made to relieve pressure by practising craniectomy in the cerebral fossa on the Opposite side if the injury is in icted in the ante rior part of the head, and on the affected side if the blow was delivered in the occipital region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progressive Medicine, Vol. 1: A Quarterly Digest of Advances, Discoveries and Improvements in the Medical and Surgical Sciences; March, 1920 Compound fractures or the skull. In considering the treatment of compound fractures of the skull as met with in civil practice, Sachs3 speaks of the lessons to be learned from the experiences In the war With gunshot wounds of the head, more particularly as to the thorough debridement of the wound. He recognizes, of course, the essential differences between gunshot wounds and the compound fractures of civil life, especially the absence in the latter of imbedded foreign bodies. However, with these and other distinctions, he believes there is an advantage to be gained in the complete excision of traumatized tissue, scalp, dura and brain tissue, in replacing the defect in the dura by a transplanted piece of fascia, and closing the skin incision completely without drainage. Injury of the Longitudinal Sinus. What proved at autopsy to be a laceration of the longitudinal sinus with hemorrhage into the ventricles, following a fall, gave a rather unusual clinical picture as reported by V ine.4 In addition to the subnormal temperature, slow pulse, and unconsciousness, there was intense rigidity of' the entire body, the fists were clenched and the forearms exed across the chest. The knee jerks were exaggerated and the Babinski and Kernig signs were present, with great irritability. The nature of the lesion was not suspected before the operation; at an exploratory craniotomy, the rent in the Sinus was discovered in the neighborhood of the anterior fontanelle and plugged with Horsley's wax. Meningeal Hemorrhages After Contusion of the Skull. The employment of lumbar puncture routinely after cranial injuries of any severity is, I think, good practise. There may be always an element of uncertainty as to the gravity of the lesion and the recovery of blood-stained uid from the spinal canal implies an injury serious enough to have caused a fracture, or meningeal or cortical hemorrhage. The evidence thus secured may be important at least from a medicolegal viewpoint. Guillain5 describes 13 cases in which there was evidence of meningeal hemorrhages following a contusion of the skull, some with, and some without, a scalp wound. In the management of these cases he empha sizes two points: the employment of local anesthesia if an exploratory craniotomy is performed, and the value of repeated lumbar punctures. T 00 much uid should not be withdrawn at first, as the reduction of pressure may cause a secondary hemorrhage. Subsequently repeated puncture is of value in relieving pressure and withdrawing the toxic products of hemolysis. While the symptoms are often vague, Guillain has observed bilateral inversion of the plantar re ex, defensive re exes, some mental confusion and sallowness of the skin.

While the last chapter Of trigeminal neuralgia may not have been written, we may go so far as to say that of all the operations on the central nervous system, in none has a greater degree of perfection been obtained and in none are the results so satisfactory. The surgery of the fifth nerve has been dwelt upon so frequently and so extensively in previous volumes of progressive medicine that I scarcely feel justified in discussing the matter again too much at length. There is one phase of this question, however, upon which I have spoken before, and feel justified in speaking of again, namely, the relative gravity of the operation. We have gotten to a point now where we can say, without fear of contradiction, that the mortality of this operation in experienced hands should be less than 3 per cent. In my own series of cases, now numbering 35, there has only been 1 death, the sixth of the series, and I now approach these operations with no more apprehension than any other major procedure.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progressive Medicine, Vol. 1: A Quarterly Digest of Advances, Discoveries and Improvements in the Medical and Surgical Sciences; March, 1909 The Technique of Craniotomy. Bryant1 gives a brief description of a new motor which he recommends for operations upon the skeleton, being especially adapted to cutting osteoplastic flaps. He claims it to be the first practical application of well-known electrical principles in such a way as to combine three-tenths horsepower with a weight of only 7 pounds, about one-eighth of that of the ordinary motor of equal power. It can readily be held in the hand, and in this way solves the problem of shafting or gearing, by doing away with both. The speed of the motor is revolutions per minute. With this high velocity the instrument cuts bone with great rapidity. Because of its high speed a phrase is used with only one cutting edge which cannot clog. The phrase does not heat at all, as the heat generated is taken up by the chips. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
