A treatise on the etiology, pathology, and treatment of congenital dislocations of the head of the femur . Displacement has given rise to muchdiscussion, and the variety of opinions offered shows sufficientlythe obscurity of the origin of this connate affection. I haveventured to propose my own opinions on this head, which,I trust, are justly founded upon Anatomy and Physiology. The Symptoms and Pathology are illustrated by correctdelineations, taken from cases, which came under my own obser-vation, and from dissections, made by myself. With regard to the Treatment, I have recorded that course
A treatise on the etiology, pathology, and treatment of congenital dislocations of the head of the femur . Displacement has given rise to muchdiscussion, and the variety of opinions offered shows sufficientlythe obscurity of the origin of this connate affection. I haveventured to propose my own opinions on this head, which,I trust, are justly founded upon Anatomy and Physiology. The Symptoms and Pathology are illustrated by correctdelineations, taken from cases, which came under my own obser-vation, and from dissections, made by myself. With regard to the Treatment, I have recorded that coursewhich has been attended with success, and have also mentionedadditional suggestions which have been advanced by eminentauthority. The subject of the present monograph being a novel , indeed, quite new upon the American continent, I mayclaim some indulgence for any imperfections which may bemet with in its pages, on the ground of its being the firstattempt to introduce to the Surgeons of this country a systematicaccount of this important affection of the human organism. 498 BROADWAY, Dec, Itreatiseonetiolo00carn
