Fifth Step.—Every part of the stump is now thoroughlyburned with the flat point of the Paquelin cautery (), care being taken that no vessels are left uncauterizedbetween the edges of the wound (Fig. 145). The clamp isthen loosened slowly, and, if any uncauterized bleeding-pointsare observed, it should be readjusted and the cautery appliedto them; then the clamp is again loosened and the piles are small or situated too high to be drawn.

If any external hemorrhoids are present they shouldbe snipped ofif, or, if thrombotic, incised and the clot turnedout. Sixth Step.—The cauterized stumps are then gently re-turned within the sphincter and held in by a Urm, wedge-shapedgauze compress applied over the anus and firmly secured inplace by the authors operating harness (Fig. 146) or a welladjusted T-bandage.
