ON STRICTURE OF THE URETHRA :
its PATHOLOGY and RATIONAL TREATMENT. Illus-
trated by numerous Cases selected from the Records of upwards of
Twenty Years' extensive and successful Practice, and which embrace
every variety of Urethral Contraction, together with appropriate
Means of Cure.

By F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
11.13ailliere, 219, Regent-street.
"We believe Mr. Courtenay's experience in the treatment of
stricture to have equalled, if It has not exceeded, that of any of his
contemporaries ; whilst we most certainly know of no man to whose
care we would sooner intrust the treatment of a severe case of stric-
ture."—Medical Circular.
