Applied Anatomy.—Mikulicz pointed out the early infection of the nodes of the lesser curva- ture in pyloric cancer, and insisted that in operation for pyloric cancer the entire lesser curvature must be removed. Cuneo showed that in pyloric cancer the fundus and two-thirds of the greater curvature usually remain free from disease, because the lymph current is toward the pylorus and not from it. Of course, if the lymphatics become blocked, the lymph current may be reversed (regurgitation), and then infectio

Of course, if the lymphatics become blocked, the lymph current may be reversed (regurgitation), and then infection of these parts can occur. William J. Mayo has noted the "lymphatic isolation" of the dome of the stomach. In operating for cancer of the pylorus, make the section of the stomach as directed by Hartmann, that is, a section which removes all of the lesser curvature and cuts the greater curvature well to the left of the subpyloric Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Gray, Henry, 1825-1861; Spitzka, Edward Anthony, 1876-1922.
