Berlin, May 13.-Details of remarkable
operations in the domain of transplanta-
ton were givsn recently before the Ger
man Surgeons Congress. sitting at Ber-
lin.
The transplantations were Of skin,
membranes. tissues. nerve. bones, and
even articulations. Prof. Kuettner, of Bres-
lau. reported that h. had replaced part
of femur, including the joint, with simi-
lar parts from a corpse. The patient
died from tumor some time later, and
a post-mortem examination showed that
the united bones had grown together per-
fectly. In two other similar cases the
patients were alive and well. Prof. Kuett-
ner expressed the opinion that It will
henceforth be regularly possible to trans
plants sound articulation from corpses.
