The surgical treatment of the complications of diverticulitis is well established. In considering the complications and diagnostic problems, the author raises for serious consideration elective surgery in uncomplicated cases to forestall the difficulties which may arise at a future date, and the need for operation as an emergency procedure.

摘要:

All cancers of the rectum do not require radical treatment. Some are safely amenable to local excision. However, it needs experience and judgment in making the selection of such relatively benign lesions.

摘要:

How true! To those of us who had our early experiences in medicine before the days of an expanding number of laboratory and other technical aids, the clues which are there for the asking,—in the history and physical examination—point the path to diagnosis more often than not. This is difficult to teach in the face of physical and chemical methods which may seem to give greater aid because their results have a scientific ring, whether accurate or not, in milliequivalents, micrograms and the like.

摘要:

The author urges a more active and definitive approach on ophthalmologists in the management of acquired strabismus in adults. Apparently, since they had fused vision before an ocular defect, they may again develop such if the surgeon will help them on the way by operative procedures on the extraocular muscles.

摘要:

Statistical methods and analyses leave the average physician “cold,” and he has a feeling of complete inadequacy as he passes on quickly to “more interesting” phases of his reading. The author has done a service to the reader in his explanation of the “why and wherefore” of statistical analyses and a brief, practical review of certain principles which are not too complicated for understanding.
