SURGERY. FIFTH YEAR. The Board of Examiners. CASES FOR COMMENTARY. 1. A healthy lad, æt. 15, had for several months observed a tumour in his right groin, which was firm, painless, and movable. Sometimes it reached the scrotum, at others it passed up into the inguinal canal, and would again descend on coughing or straining. For some time the tumour remained in the same state, causing no trouble; it then became painful, vomiting came on, the bowels were constipated, and the pain soon increased. A few weeks after the commencement of these symptoms, he sought advice in an infirmary, being sent there for operation. At this time there was a firm tumour, apparently in the spermatic cord, about the size of a pigeon's egg, situated just below the external abdominal ring. The scrotum on this side was inflamed and œdematous, and the parts more immediately about the tumour were inflamed, indurated, and threatening to slough. The tumour had by this time become fixed. The right testicle could not be felt. There was occasional vomiting, not severe. The bowels were constipated. Give your opinion as to the nature of this swelling. Mention the treatment that you would adopt, and give your reasons for the course you select. 2. A man, æt. 50, was admitted into hospital in consequence of an old injury to his shoulder. Three |
