LONDON:

J. E. ADLARD, BARTHOLOMEW CLOSE.

IN the present edition I have adhered to the original plan of the work, and given such additional matter as increased experience has placed within my reach. Since the appearance of the last edition, considerable improvement has been effected in the operation for vesico-vaginal fistula, and the investigation of malignant tumours of the bladder has been successfully prosecuted. I have re-written the chapters on these subjects, together with that on lithotrity, and illustrated them by original woodcuts. I trust that the additions and alterations which I have made will be found to enhance the value of the work, as a practical guide to the surgeon.

London, February, 1857.
