Book Description
Excerpt from Injuries and Diseases of the Genital and Urinary Organs The ms. Of this work was completed in September, 1894, and was then put aside during the busy months of the winter session. It has since been carefully revised, and somewhat added to, with the wish that it might be fairly representa tive of surgical opinion and practice at the moment of its publication. It is in a way a continuation of my book on the Surgical Diseases of the Kidney, a second edition of which is now in course of preparation for the Press. For many years it has been my intention to publish a treatise on the Surgery of the Genital and Lower Urinary Organs. In 1885 I undertook a series of articles on these subjects, but the pressure of other work made it difficult for me to write them in the allotted time, and I was graciously allowed to withdraw from my engagement. It is only too probable that my intention would still have remained nu realised, had I not made a promise to contribute the articles on these subjects to the System of Surgery edited by Mr. Frederick Treves. This promise has influenced me not only to write this book without further procrastination, but to write it on the lines adopted in that work.
