Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Practical Notes on the Treatment of Deformities
Having held the office of Resident House Surgeon to the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital for ten years, and having been also, during a great part of that time, assistant-surgeon, I have enjoyed considerable opportunities of studying practically the different kinds of deformities that have passed through the Hospital. It is not my object to repeat, with respect to the pathology or causes of deformities, what has been so well written in other works on Orthopaedic Surgery, but rather to state, in a short space, what methods of treatment I have found from personal experience to be best adapted for the relief or cure of the more common forms; pointing out where I myself have found most difficulties, and what means I have found best calculated to surmount them.
