Case of Aneurism of Aorta—Treatment by Galvano-Punctures: Result Encouraging
نویسنده
چکیده
one miscarriage. No definite history of syphilis, beyond falling of hair and occasional sore throat. Had typhoid fever ten years previously, and rheumatic fever fourteen years ago. No history of intemperance. Was first admitted to Bristol Royal Infirmary on November 4th, 1882, complaining of pain in right side of chest, dyspnoea, dysphagia, and other symptoms suggestive of aneurism.

It was increased on swallowing, and was so severe as to require hypodermic injections of morphia. There was dulness at the right infra-clavicular region, extending to the fourth intercostal space ; also at the supra-spinous and infra-spinous regions of the same side,
