A.-CASEs OF PERFORATING DUODENAL ULCER TREATED BY SUTURE. CASE I.-May 23rd, x9OI. Male, aged 41, temperate. No history of previous illness. Sudden pain in the epigastrium at iI am Applied for relief at 2 pm When he was first seen his pulse was 0oo; pain felt in right side; abdomen moving slightly and somewhat rigid. The symptoms were so ill-defined that he was thought to be suffering from pneumonia. At 12.30 midnight his pulse was 120 and his abdomen dis-tended. I saw the patient for the first time at 2 am and opened his abdomen. A punched-out ulcer was found just beyond the pylorus, from which clear fluid kept welling up. Result.-Death five hours and a half after theoperation. Post-mortem record: Imperfect closure of the perforation. CASE II.-July I3th, I9OI. Male, aged 47, a drunkard. No history of previous illness. Sudden, very severe abdominal pain at 9 am, but did not apply for relief until 8.30 pm When first seen his pulse was 104; the abdomen was moving during respiration. There was general tenderness, most marked in the epigastric region. Abdomen opened at (0.45 pm I found a circular and well-defined perforation at the back-of the pylorus. Clear fluid was welling up through it. Result.-Death eight days later. The patient felt so well until twenty-four hours before his death that he was constantly asking when he {night get up. Post-mortem record: Subdiaphragmatic abscess; incomplete closure of the perforation. The ulceration had continued after the sutures had been inserted (? cancerous). CASE Ill.-May i8th, 1902. Male, aged 37, temperate. Hadcomplained for the last six months of stomach-ache half an hourafter tis meals. He had felt a sudden pain at twelve o'clock mid-day, on the right side beneath his ribs. The pain was so severe that he took a cab to the nearest hospital. On admission the pulse was 120, the abdomen was moving freely and equally. I operated at 6 pm There-was no perforation in the stomach, but a small clean-cut ulcer in the duodenum, from which bile-stained fluid kept pouring out. The aperture was closed, and a counter-incision was made in the right lumbar region, through which a drainage tube was passed. Result.-Death 35 hours after the rupture. Post-mortem record: The perforation was effectively closed, as it was water-tight. CA6E IV.-July 26th, 1902. Male, aged 26, temperate. Had suffered previous attacks of a similar pain, but none so severe asthat which occurred suddenly at 7 pm He was admitted to the hospital at 3.50 am on July 27th, but I did not see him until IO am on this day. His pUlse Was 112. There was pain over the right iliac region, which was full anf tender. The abdomen, except over the tender area, was moving during respiration. I thought he was suffering from an acute inflammation of the appendix, but on opening the abdomen in the iliac Tegion, the appendix was found to be normal. The stomach was intact, but a perforation was discovered on theanterior surface of the duodenum near the pylorus.Result.-The patient leftthe hospital cured on September 12th, 1902. I have seen him on more than one occasion in the last year. He is at work, and says (October 20th, I904) he is able to do his work but has to be careful in his diet.
