Extraction of a Vesical Calculus in a Female

Mussamut Bcjggi, a Mahomedan female, aged about 30 years, was admitted in the Gujrat Civil Hospital, on 14th March 1897, suffering from symptoms of stone in the bladder. She could feel the stone in the urethra herself, and also knew of its existence in the bladder by the passage of gravel during the last four months. She stated that, about a year ago, she began to pass pus with the urine, and felt difficulty iu micturition, which gradually increased. Being under the impression she was suffering from gonorrhoea, she put herself under the treatment of quacks without benefit. When she began to pass bits of stone with the urine, she believed that it was stone in the bladder that she was troubled with.
