Themedian cephalic or basilic vein is preferable to a vein exactlyin the cubital fossa, because, should inflammation in orabout the vein supervene, the patient will experience lessdiscomfort on flexion and extension of the elbow. The bu-rette containing the required quantity of salvarsan solutionis given to an assistant to hold or it is suspended on a standadapted to the purpose (Fig. 60). At this point it is usuallypossible to plunge the sharp pointed platino-iridium obliquelythrough the skin into
