The silk ligature is now almost universally used for securingthe pedicle. There is no objection to catgut, beyond the extratrouble necessary in preparing it; I have used it successfully inmore than twenty cases, but have now given it up for , as far as written records may be trusted, no special virtueresides in any form of silk, providedit be strong and pure. Chinese twist,of thickness varying according to thesize and vascularity of the pedicle, ismost generally used. It is first scaldedin boiling water, and then soaked in anti-septic lotion. There are many methodsFig. 13. of tying the ligature; no method, in my Taits Staffordshire Knot. opinion, is superior to Lawson TaitsStaffordshire knot. (Fig. 13.) An ordinary handled ne
