This view culminated in the introduction ofthe aperiosteal naethod of amputation. In the latter method it has been conclusively proved by Bunge, v.

Very good cicatricial sawn end of the bone is not in itself tender, even though the medullarycavity has been left open. Tenderness is due much more to excessive growth of the periosteum (perhaps alsoin the marrow, Bunge) which leads ultimately to the production of exostoses, and canmost easily be prevented by a complete removal of the periosteum covering the endof the stump, although the experience of Hirsch and ourselves also shows thatexostoses can be prevented by accustoming the limb early to bearing weight on itssurface.
