A treatise on dislocations and on fractures of the joints . Fig. inches of the radius removed. A ligamentous unionof the radius to the ulna was produced, and the ulna wasenlarged opposite to the space produced by the removal ofthe radius. Fig. a curious result of an experiment in which an inch ofbone was removed from the radius, and the ulna was acci-dentally broken at the time. The radius produced callus, which did not reach from bone to bone, but the ulna, at itsfractured part, sent in two portions of bone to fill the spacebetween the ends of the radius. A A.

Space between the ends of the radiusB B. Fracture of the ulna, with two portions of bone pro-ceeding into the inter-space of the radius. This experiment explains the cases of apparent unionbetween remote portions of bone, when a piece of the tibia hasbeen removed, and the fibula at the same time fractured: thisis fully exemplified in the case published by Mr. Dunn, a veryintelligent surgeon at Scarborough, who has had the kindnessto send me a cast of the leg of his PiibHsliea by Asdey Cooper. 1824 . PLATE XXXIV. Fig. a dislocation of the scapular end of the clavicle uponthe acromion ; the clavicle is seen projecting over the spineof the scapula. A A. Clavicle B. Scapula C. Spine of the scapula D. Acromion E. Scapular end of the clavicle thrown over the acromion F. The conoid ligament almost entirely converted into bone, and anchylosing the clavicle to the scapula. Fig. a fracture of the acromion united by ligament. A. Portion of the scapula B. Spine of the scapula C. Glenoid D. Coracoid process E. Acromion F. The fracture of the acromion united at its edge by the ligament G. Which has been turned aside to shew ligamentous granu- lations upon the broken surfaces. _t Fig. a very curious preparation of dislocation of the os humeriin the axilla, and fracture of the cervix within the capsularligament, forming there a new joint, the fracture not havingunited.
