Excerpt from American Medico-Surgical Bulletin, 1897, Vol. 11: A Journal of Practice and Science, Issued on the 10th and 25th of the Month; Tenth Year Ligature of the arterioles may be easily avoided by twisting, which never fails to completely arrest the haemorrhage. With regard to the suture of the soft parts, more particularly approximation of the pillars by means of buried sutures, we are of opinion that, in the majority of cases, the object aimed at may be attained by the use of silver-wire sutures, properly placed and comprising at each margin of the wound as large a quantity as possible of the soft parts. The coaptation of the tissues under such conditions 15 excellent, and, when the sutures are removed, the cicatrix of the inguinal ring is dense and firm, as we have found in all our patients. It is only in the comparatively small number of cases in which a good result can be obtained only by Bassini's method that it is necessary to employ a deep row of buried sutures.
