About this title

Synopsis

A clear, historically important medical study that explains Fungus Haematodes and its difference from cancer, with detailed cases and dissections that illuminate early pathology.

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.
