Clarks method of employing theCushing stitch is an excellent one. In applying the implicating stitch it shouldbe carried well out on the sides of the protruding bladder and include the aponeu-rotic investiture mentioned above, for it is on this fascial support that the final 620 GYNECOLOGY success of the operation largely depends.
