Genital Diseases, Male -- veterinary; Genital Diseases, Female -- veterinary. 4o6 Diseases of the Genital Orga^is against the operator's hand, grasps the ovary, and exerts the degree of pressure required to rupture the cyst. The vaginal wall will withstand securely the maximum digital compression, if prudently applied, which a powerful man can exert. Sometimes the cyst wall is so dense and resistant that, however powerful the man may be, he can not rupture the cyst by digital compression. If, after a reasonable effort, it is not ruptured, it is best to desist and resort to the easier and safer operation in such cases, of stabbing the cyst and thus evacuating its contents. The operator, if right-handed, inserts his right hand into the rectum, grasps the cystic ovary, and draws it back over the vagina. The left hand is then inserted into the vagina and a secure hold upon the ovary obtained by passing the hand forward with the palm downward, the index finger passing to the left of the gland. Fig. 129a—Ovarian Scalpel and the thumb to the right. The ovary is then pressed down with the right hand between the thumb and finger of the left hand, and the broad ligament beyond the ovary securely grasped so that the ovary with the cyst rests in the palm of the hand. The right hand is then withdrawn from the rec- tum and an attendant quickly washes off the feces. The ovarian scalpel (Fig. 129a) is grasped and, guarded, is pushed carefully along the forearm and palm of the left hand until the end of the blade is against the vaginal wall over the center of the cyst. When sure that the end of the scalpel is properly placed and directed toward the center of the cyst, the guard is released and the scalpel given a quick thrust forward through the vaginal wall and the wall of the cyst. The moment the scalpel enters the cyst, the latter col- lapses. The scalpel is then withdrawn and the pressure continued upon the cyst until i
