The international encyclopaedia of surgery; a systematic treatise on the theory and practice of surgery . impaired. Hence, by the general consent of surgeons, the modiiieationoi Dubleds operation introduced by Prof. Lister, is now preferred to anyother. 488 EXCISIONS AND RESECTIONS. Fig. This procedure, the advantages of which can he best understood by a refer-ence to the annexed diagram (Fig. ), requiroH two incisions, one on the radial and one on the uhiar side of the nuliol ivchion begins ahf)ut the niichlleof the dorsal aspect of the radius, on a levelwith the styloid process, and extends down-wards and outwards toward the inner sideof the metacarpo-})halangeal articulation ofthe thumb, but, on reaching the line of theradial border of the metacarjial bone of tlieindex finger, diverges at an obtuse angle an<lpasses longitudiiially downwards for half thelength of that bone. The iilmir iiu-inon be-gins two inches above the end of the ulna,and immediately in front of it, extends down-w^ards between the ulna and the flexor carpiulnaris, and ends at the middle of the palmaraspect of the fifth metacarpal. The onlytendons necessarily severed in this operationare the extensors of the carpus itself. Thetrapezium is to be separated Irom the othercarpal bone
