The difference between Banning's
Brace Truss for Hernia, and those in COM
mon use is, hat while the latter merely
stop the outlet by pressing upon the ex-
ternal ring, thus necessitating great press
ure to prevent the descent of the Hernia
and causing an enlargement of the ring,
the ATmer, by its lifting abdominal
weighN frOm the rings, makes but a slight
pressure necessary, not upon the external
ring, but upon the canal between the two
rings, thus favoring a contraction of the
rings and a speedy radical cure. DR.. Ban
