. A treatise on surgical therapeutics of domestic animals. Veterinary surgery; Therapeutics, Surgical. Fig. 59.—Hygroma of the Knee in a cow (from Stockfletli). The tumor measured i m. 56 in. in circumference. It was of one year's standing. It inter- fered with locomotion. When the foot rested on the ground it flattened down on its inferior surface. Needle cauterization has given good results in the case of horses. When the hygroma is indur- ated, deep fifing, excision or ex- tirpation are necessary. In cat- tle, Saussol divided the tumor vertically with the bistoury, al- most entirely removed


. A treatise on surgical therapeutics of domestic animals. Veterinary surgery; Therapeutics, Surgical. Fig. 59.—Hygroma of the Knee in a cow (from Stockfletli). The tumor measured i m. 56 in. in circumference. It was of one year's standing. It inter- fered with locomotion. When the foot rested on the ground it flattened down on its inferior surface. Needle cauterization has given good results in the case of horses. When the hygroma is indur- ated, deep fifing, excision or ex- tirpation are necessary. In cat- tle, Saussol divided the tumor vertically with the bistoury, al- most entirely removed the yellow lardaceous mass which forms it, and cauterized it with the hot iron; after a month the recovery was almost complete, but an ugly cicatrix was left. Serres made, on the most projecting portion of the tumor, two convergent curved in- cisions, bounding an elliptic flap of skin, which was excised with the tumor. The whole of this was then removed as thoroughly as possible, and a quilled suture dresbing applied. With antisepsis more favorable results can be obtainedi The techniq.
