Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Glasgow Medical Journal, Vol. 66: For the Glasgow and West of Scotland Medical Association, July to December, 1906
This man's history is a typical one for aneurysm. By trade he is a tailor, but he has also been a soldier in India, when he suffered from malaria, had fatiguing marches, and, most important of all, he has had syphilis (chancre and rash). For many years he took a good deal of drink. Here we have well recognised factors in the causation of aneurysm - malaria, fati e, syphilis, and alcohol.
