Excerpt from Lithotomy: Its Successes and Its Dangers; Being a Verbatim Report, From Shorthand Notes, of an Inquest Held Before the City Coroner; With a Preface and Commentary
I venture to say that there is no surgeon in large practice, no surgeon to a large hospital, who has not once or more, in the course of his life, shortened patients' lives, when he was making attempts either to prolong them or to make them happier. 45 Let the liability to the calamities move you never to decide upon an Operation, except in consideration of the patient's interest alone.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fraught relationship between the medical community and the legal system in the late 19th century through the lens of a controversial case. The author, a prominent surgeon, was accused of malpractice after a patient died following a lithotomy procedure, an operation to remove kidney stones. The author was subjected to a hostile inquest and intense public scrutiny, highlighting the precarious position of medical professionals at the time. The book offers a nuanced exploration of the ethical dilemmas and tensions between the pursuit of medical progress and the potential for unintended harm. Through the author's personal account, this book brings to life the challenges faced by surgeons in an era of limited medical knowledge and societal expectations. It illuminates the complexities of medical practice, the fallibility of human judgment, and the critical need for a fair and equitable legal system in safeguarding both patients and healthcare providers. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9780243031078_0
