Excerpt from Excision of the Knee-Joint, Vol. 1
The late Dr John Brown, in his Notes on the Surgery of the Indian Campaign of 1857-58, remarks: If there is a class of cases in military practice which demands that the knife should follow the wound, it is this class in which the knee-joint is injured by a musket ball. Occasional recoveries do not affect the question at all; for operative measures should always be had recourse to when there is no chance of recovery without them; and that chance is too remote to be considered in comparison with the greater chance of a fatal result in this form of injury. The Operation of resection of the joint, while still doubtful in most cases of disease, seems to me to be applicable to some of the cases of gunshot injury of the knee, provided there be little injury to the bones, and the camp be a standing one; in marching armies the Operation is decidedly inadmissible.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, a historical analysis of knee surgery, delves into the invention of knee excision by Park. Focused on the implementation of excision in military surgery, it delves into the skepticism it was originally met with. The author laments the loss of life and limb, and argues that the procedure could have saved many lives were it not for the skepticism. The book then discusses the methods used post-surgery to keep the limb immobile and describes the author's own invention of a suspension-rod and splint, designed to improve on these methods. The author argues its benefits, which include comfort for the patient, easy dressing changes, and permanence throughout the healing process. The unique insights and historical context this book provides will be invaluable to surgeons and medical historians alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
