Synopsis
Excerpt from The Cure of Rupture by Paraffin Injections
In taking up the description of the injection of paraffin for the cure of hernia a number of remarks of a prefatory nature are called for, as it is necessary to justify a treatment which has come in for a considerable censure from surgeons who have had no experience with the method and who have judged-solely from a few mishaps which came to their attention and which in no way permit of an accurate estimate of the treatment.

The Cure of Rupture by Paraffin Injections (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book's introduction to a groundbreaking surgical technique illuminates the nuances of paraffin injection for hernia repair. A response to the condemnation and dismissal of the method by surgeons of the era, the author presents a robust defense of the technique based on years of experimentation. Exploring the physical and chemical properties of paraffin compounds, the text elucidates their ability to enhance connective tissue development in hernial openings. It asserts paraffin as a more practical and cost-effective alternative to surgical intervention, especially for those hesitant to undergo anesthesia. The author emphasizes the simplicity and safety of the procedure, highlighting the absence of complications and the low likelihood of infection or suppuration. Strikingly, the book advocates for the democratization of hernia treatment, empowering physicians beyond the confines of hospital settings to perform the procedure. The author's bold challenge to the surgical establishment's monopoly on hernia repair highlights the potential for paraffin injection to expand access to affordable and effective hernia treatment.
