The cord is now picked upthrough the scrotal wall with the finger, and the small needle passedthrough the anesthetized area at its upper end and an injection madeon each side of the cord (Fig. 101) in close contact with it; some opera-tors inject within the cord in this way, but I find it better not to do so,as a vein might be injured, and, while of no consequence, it mightproduce a hematoma or discolor the field with blood, and as the.
