The fact alone that the perfect closure of theabdominal wound—so that it may heal primarily and solidly—diminishes in alarge measure the immediate dangers as well as future complications of the usuallyassociated operation, entitles abdominal section to rank with procedures of thefirst importance. The history of abdominal surgery, like that of all great and lasting humanaccomplishments, has progressed by advances
