Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Supplement to the Annual Report of the Adelaide Hospital for the Year 1923, Vol. 3: The Medical and Scientific Archives of the Adelaide Hospital
Of the 12 cases of hydatid disease coming to operation, in two the diagnosis was not made beforehand, the presence of a cyst being unsuspected. Nine of the 12 cases had complement fixation tests performed on the blood. In five of these the test was positive (55 per cent.) and in the remaining four it was negative. In one of the four cases giving a negative test the cyst was obsolescent, but in the others mature and living cysts were found.
