Whenfound irritable the anesthetic can be added to the solution. Whenthe operation contemplates the use of retractors or other instrumentswithin the bladder cavity, as for the removal of pedunculated growths,or thorough direct vesical inspection, then the bladder should first beanesthetized. Operation.—The skin and subcutaneous tissues in the middle linejust above the pubes (Fig. 95) are infiltrated and a few drams of solu-tion directed down between the recti muscles. The tissues are then. Fig. 102.—Bransford Lewis depositor (slightly reduced in size) for depositing anes-thetic tablets at neck of bladder and in posterior urethra.
