This, in many cases, is an important fac-tor, as it prevents needless contamination of uninvaded parts,limits the area of infected tissue and possible resultant com-plications and greatly facilitates the execution of this part ofthe technic. Hemorrhage is reduced to a minimum, opera-tions are completed with dispatch and, therefore, with lessdanger of surgical shock when these appliances are employed. 78 FISTULA AND POLL-EVIL muscles as when the subject is tied in ropes androlled into the ventral position. histruments Required.—A good strong andwell sharpened scalpel; a probe pointedbistoury, two large tumor forceps, an assort-ment of hemostats, a drainage tube inserter,a perforated rubber drainage hose, a largeneedle threaded with strong material.
