NEW WORK ON STRICTURE.

Just published, Bvo, in cloth, price 55., by post free, ss. 6d.,
THE TREATMENT of STRICTURES of the
URETHRA. With the Reasons why they so often
appear Incurable.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R C.S.E.,

And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the

Curisf Strictures of the Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded, demonstrating his success and
explaining the cause of it. By his systematic management
a immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject"
to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 18.58.
