In operations upon the tongue, nose, pharynx, uterus, vagina, rectum,and in some other regions, the galvano-cauter} seems destined to super-sede the scalpel and ecraseur. No blood need be lost in amputations ofconsiderable magnitude, provided the operation is skilfulh^ the loop is employed, it is slipped when cold over the part to beremoved. It can be adjusted, therefore, with every precaution againstaccident. After the current is turned on, the heat of the wire even can beregulated witii great precision. Care should be exercised against draw-ing the wire too closely to the handle, and in selecti
