CARVING AROUND THE BRAIN
Prominent New York Woman Under
went Most Delicate and Unusual
Operation.

Baltimore, Md-Mrs. Adele Collins,
said TO be a well known matron in
New York society, is at the Johns
Hopkins hospital recovering after q
delicate and unusual surgical opera
ton performed by Harvey Gushing.

hospital.
For some time Mrs. Collins had suf-
fered from dull feeling in her head.
causing severe pains. At times, Is is
said, she would lapse into semi-stu-
por and would sometimes remain In
this condition for days. Several New
York physicians and surgeons exam
irted herr but were unable to accurate
~ diagnose her disaffection.
She was then advised to come to
Hopkins, where Doctor Gushing made
the examination by X-ray and decided
that there was 8 depression at the
base OF the brain. What caused this
is not known. but it is thought that
Mrs. Collins had sustained a slight
blow on the head, possibly several
years ago or when she was child,
and this caused the obstruction TO
form in her later life.
To remove the foreign matter, which
consisted of a soft substance, It was
necessary to gradually cut 1t away.
While this is being done, tho utmost
care had to be observed. At times 1t
was necessary for Doctor Gushing TO
cut within thousandth part OF an
inch from the, brain. At these times
the slightest slip OF the knife would
have instantly killed Mrs Collins.
After more than five hours. Doctor
Cushing had completely removed the
oppression.
Mrs. Collins is now reported on the
road to recovery.
