Various explanations readily suggest themselves: its inaccessibility for direct investigation; the complexity and varied sources of its secretions; the difficulty of obtaining its contents, even in experimental animals, in a normal state of the organ; its elusiveness under the roentgen-ray; its relative immunity from disease. Our knowledge of its secretory and motor functions has rested almost entirely on animal experimentation, on chance observations at operation and on the study of the contents obtained after jejunostomies and ileostomies,...References1.
