Mucus andsmall particles of fxcal matter are removed withsmall pledgets of gau/.e or cotton. Theplate is inserted while the bowel is held in thesame position as when the incision is made. Theplate is inserted edgewise, and as it is completelyin the lumen of the bowel, traction is made onthe sutures in .such a manner that the plate makeshalf a turn, so that its upper surface faces thewound. It is now accurately adjusted, so thatits ends are equidistant from the angles of thevisceral wound. The plate is then fixed in thislocation by transfixing the entire thickness ofthe wall of the bowel near the margin of thewound with the needle attached to the lateral orfixation Fill. ^.—neo-colostoniy without resection ol carcum.
