This operation has so far proven successful in every first one to perform this operation for this purpose wasDr. Trenholme, of Canada, who operated in 1876, sincewhich time Prof. Hegar, of Freiburg, Prof. Nusbaum, ofMuncie, and Dr. Wm.

CHAPTER XXVII. UTERINE VEGETATIONS OF THE ENDOMETRIUM — UTERINE HYDATIDS — VASCULARPOLYPI — PLACENTAL AND GRANULAR POLYPI, ETC. The uterine polypus usually consists of a fibrous, pear-shaped tumor, attached to some portion of the internal sur-face of the uterus, by a pedicle or stem. The size of thepedicle varies somewhat with the size ofthe polypus; although occasionally quitelarge polypi are attached by small pedicles,and, in other occasional instances, the smallpolypus has a pedicle about as thick as itsown diameter. The fibrous uterine polypususually exists singly, al-though I have known oneinstance where there wasone quite large fibrous pol-ypus in connection withseveral small fibrous growths at the sametime in the same uterus. The small mul-tiple fibrous growths of the body and cer-vix are termed vegetations of the endome-trium. The small and semi - organizedgrowths are termed mucous polypi. Hydatids o
