Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wood's Medical and Surgical Monographs, Vol. 4: November, 1889 It is no longer necessary for the honest surgeon to tell his patient with diseased knee that to submit to operation is to run a risk as great as that of fighting in a forlorn hope. On the contrary, given a patient free from consumption, not hope lessly exhausted and broken down, and not over forty years of age, I can honestly tell him that I can open his knee-joint and either remove the diseased parts, or excise the joint, or amputate, according to what may be required in his individual case, with no fear of serious risk to life. And the prognosis as regards the quality of the limb, if saved by Operation, is also extraordinarily improved.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wood's Medical and Surgical Monographs, Vol. 9: Consisting of Original Treatises and Reproductions, in English, of Book and Monographs Selected From the Latest Literature of Foreign Countries, With All Illustration, Etc The important question as to what constitutes immunity can be answered only through bacteriology, and although we are not yet ready with a solution, it still grows plainer that we have to do with chemism rather than with a strife between cells and organisms, between parasites which endeavor to penetrate the body on the one side and phagocytes on the other, which take its defence upon themselves and devour the bacilli. Investigation has provided a large amount of material in a short time about the biology of micro-organisms, and much of this is important in medicine, such as the occurrence of per sistent forms in the case of many bacteria anthrax and tetanus - which have the form of_ spores and an unparalleled power of resistance to high temperature and chemical agents. Also the numerous experiments on the effect of heat, cold, dry ing, chemicals, light, etc., on bacteria which are not pathogenic and spore-producing have given us many facts of use in pro phylaxis. The influence of light is especially important. For years we have known that direct sunbeams would kill germs quickly, and I have found that tubercle bacilli live but a few minutes or hours in sunlight, according to the thickness of the exposed layer; but even dispersed daylight has the same in fluence, though it is slower, for cultures placed near a window die in five to seven days. For the etiology of infectious disease it is important that bacteria increase only in dampness, and cannot rise of themselves from a moist place into the air. Thus it is only mingled with dust that they are carried by air currents, and only those which live a long time in a dry state. But they never multiply in the air, as was formerly supposed.

This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: knife and grafting of healthy skin, and the lymphatic glands nearer the body remain free from infection, the propriety of amptating the limb must become the subject for consultation. It will sometimes be the painful duty of the surgeon to urge upon a reluctant patient to sacrifice a limb in the hope of saving life; and if this advice is followed before infection of the glands has taken place, the result has often proved the soundness of the advice; while too great delay, or want of earnestness in urging- submission to so serious an alternative as the loss of a limb must always be, may lead to protracted suffering and inevitable death. I have yet another subject for your consideration, one which the general public enters into with a good deal of warm feeling and an amount of ignorance which calls rather for instruction than blame. I mean the removal of cancerous growths by cauterization instead of by the knife. On this point let me read to you what our great master, John Hunter, said just a hundred years ago (Palmer's edition of his works, vol. i., page 625) as to cures for cancer: No cure has yet been found: for what I call a cure is an alteration of the disposition and the effect of that disposition, and not the destruction of the cancerous parts. But as we have no such medicine, we are often obliged to remove cancerous parts, which extirpation, however, will often cure as well as. we could do by changing the disposition and action. Arsenic seems to have some power of this kind, and its effects might be increased, by being used internally and externally; but its use is very dangerous, and I am afraid insufficient for the disease. This is a remedy which enters into the empirical nostrums which are in vogue for curing cancer; and among which Plunkett's holds the highest ran...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wood's Medical and Surgical Monographs, Vol. 9: Contents Advances in Bacteriology; Formulatory of New Remedies and New Medicinal Preparations; Anaesthetics, a Discussion When I accepted the honorable task of delivering one of the addresses to the International Congress, the choice was given to me of a subject connected with hygiene, in which science I am at present most occupied, or of one drawn from bacteriology, to which my time for years was formerly wholly dedicated. I have decided for the latter because it seems to me that bacteriology has excited the greatest interest on every side, and therefore I propose to describe the present state of the science, at least in some of its important parts. To those already familiar with the subject I may have nothing new to offer; but that I may not appear quite empty-handed to them, I purpose to add certain facts from my own continued investigations which have not yet been made public. Bacteriology, as far as it concerns physicians, is aver young science. Even up to fifteen years ago we knew little more than that in anthrax and in recurrent fever certain peculiar bodies appear in the blood, and that in wound-infection the so-called vibrio appears at times. No proof that these organisms were the cause of disease had then been furnished, and, excepting a few visionaries, most people considered them mere curiosities. At that time one could hardly think otherwise, for it had not been shown that these bodies were independent and specific for each disease. In decomposing fluids, as in the blood of suffocated animals, bacteria were found which closely resembled anthrax, and certain observers declared that they all were nothing but crystals. Bacteria like those of recurrent fever were found in marshes and in sordes, and micrococci like those of septic disease were said to be found in normal blood and tissue.
