The elastic cord, which is 3 to 5 mm. in diameter, is passedthrough the stomach and then the bowel, in the long axis of each, and is tightlytied, and the knot is fastened with a silk thread. Another row of Lembert 1096 Diseases and Injuries of the Abdomen sutures buries the elastic cord from sight. The cord cuts through in from forty-eight to seventy-two hours and makes the anastomosis. Thus the dangerof infection is greatly lessened, for when the anastomosis opening is formed it iscompletely encompassed by firm adhesions. Further, the danger of the forma-tion of a vicious circle is greatly lessened, because there is no communicationbetween the stomach and bowel for between forty-eight and seventy-two hours,the period in which vomiting of the type previously described is most apt tooccur. The method is not suitable for absolute pyloric occlusion. In thiscondition it is imperative t
