When, however, the patients condition will permit it, the entire abdominalcavity should be washed out and the separate coils of intestines drawn up in anorderly manner and wiped off, and the mesentery cleansed, so that, as far as pos-sible, every trace of pus is removed. It must be remembered that only one thirdof the intestinal canal Hes in contact with the abdominal wall and that there is. ?Ovarian Abscess.

Liberalgauze drains should then be inserted in the median line leading down into thepelvis and out onto the coils of intestines. The flanks should also be openedand gauze drains put in there to catch any fluids gravitating in that this way several yards of gauze may be employed and gradually removed in ENUCLEATION OF PYOSALPIXX AND OVARIAX ABSCESSES. 235 a few days.
