This volume surveys the disease in multiple organs, including the eye-ball, extremities, and viscera, and it explains why Fungus Haematodes was often mistaken for cancer. It also presents a large set of cases and plates, showing what doctors observed at autopsy and during operations, and it places the disease in a broader medical context with a careful, comparative view of cancer.
- Detailed descriptions of the disease’s appearance across organs and its course on dissection
- Case histories and illustrated plates that trace progression from initial symptoms to fatal outcomes
- Observations on treatment attempts, including extirpation and its limits
- A side-by-side comparison to cancer to help readers distinguish similar diseases
Ideal for readers of medical history, pathology, and early 19th‑century surgical practice who seek a grounded, original account.
