Operative surgery of the gall tracts with original report of twenty successful cholecystenterostomies by means of the anastomosis button . the many experiments on that portion of thecanal.

This is considered by doctors to be of so. Figure 6.—Denans Rings. little danger that they advise the patient to pay no attention toit, and forget that such a thing occurred. What surgeon wouldbecome alarmed if one of his young patients swallowed acoin or marble? Admit that a coin or marble, under certainpathological conditions, has produced trouble; to the one suchcase there are thousands that have not. It will be admitted that with cicatricial contraction of thebowel or a malformation of the ileocecal valve, obstruction mightbe produced by the button, but the proportion of these cases wouldbe about the same as the proportion of cases of trouble producedby the coin or marble, and so small as to be scarcely worth seriousattention. I have now reports of three hundred (300) operations andexperiments with the button. The obstruction so much dwelt uponby the critics of the button did not occur in one of my cases, norhas it come to my knowledge that it occurred even once in thecases of others who have performed the operation.
