VAN BUTCHELL ON FISTULA,
The Sixth Edition, enlarged,
Just published, in Bvo., cloth boards, price 7s. 6d.
FACTS and OBSERVATIONS relative to a
Successful Mode of TREATING PILES, Fistula,
Hemorrhoidal Excrescences, Tumours, and Strictures, WITH-
OUT CUTTING or CONFINEMENT ; illustrated with
numerous Cases. Being a familiar Exposition of the Practice
of S. J. VAN BUTCHELL, Surgeon-Accoucheur.
" This volume presents to us a number of illustrations of his
singular success under circumstances that would have induced
despair in any professor of less mastery, or less accustomed to
accomplish cures where cures seem impossible. The statements
here made are most convincing, and place beyond doubt the
superiority of the treatment to which he refers."—Court Journal.
" It is very rarely our practice to advert to books on proles•
sional subjects; but the Facts and Observations' appear, by
their practical and unpretending character, to indicate so easy
and prompt a relief from a large class of most painful and die.
tressing diseases, that we believe this word of commendation
from us, which we give with much sincerity, will not be thought
misplaced or without its use."—Examiner.
" The author appears to have had long experience, extensive
practice, and great success, in the treatment of hemorrhoidal
affections, the result of which is here published in a brief form,
and in language intelligible to the least scientific reader."—
Morning Advertiser.
" From a perusal of this work it will be at once seen that the
author displays a knowledge adequate to the task he has un-
dertaken. Mr. Van Betchell altogether discards the use of the
knife, and, judging from the cases recorded, success has almost
universally accrued from the plan substituted."—Weekly
Chronicle.
