They LACERATIONS ON THE PERINEUM. 131 are corroborated by the special anatomical studies of these parts byTandler and Halban, (7) W. Liepmann, (8) and Hugo Sellheim (o).Fig. 1 shows that the one considerable artery in these parts, theinternal pudic, lies on the outer wall of the ischio-rectal fossa, ata sufficient distance to make it safe to pick up the levator structures,.

All structures of the superficial and middle-strata have been removed up to the margins of the rectum (),that have been carefully preserved, the latter as a projecting collar, which issurrounded by the inner remaining edge of the facial diaphragm ( ). The ischio-rectal fossa? have been cleared out, and the muscles in their walls, the levatorani (</), the internal obturators (e), and the pyriformi (/) have been divestedof their facial covering. down near the rectum, with a needle guided by one or more fingersof the opposite hand.
