THOMAS BOON, aged 25, labourer, tall, well-formed, and rather muscular, was, on the 5th of June, 1852, suddenly seized with the following symptoms:-nausea and vomiting, accompanying a very painiful tumour in the right inguinal region and correspondinig side of the scrotum. First visited at one A.M. on the 6th of June, when he gave the following account of himself:-Had been quite well the whole of the day previous, and had made a hearty supper as usual ; had then felt sick, had vomited; had passed a natural stool, immediately on which the pain and tumour supervened, the pain being confined to the tumour. Further inqniry elicited the fact, that twelvemonths previously a horse had kicked him precisely over the painful spot, causing considerable inflammation of the testicle, and pain in the inguinal canal, which yielded to warm fomentations without surgical aid, the rarts having been perfectly well ever since. On examination I found the skin cool; pulse 70, regular, and firm, but not hard; tongue natural; countenance indicative of much suffering; no vomiting since the commencement of the attack; the right inguinal canal, and right side of the scrotum, were much distended, having precisely the form and feel of a swollen testicle, and inflamed spermatic cord. There was no impulse on coughing. Suspicion pointed to strangulated hernia, but the taxis had not the slightest effect.-Ordered a warm bath, a full dose of calomel and opium, with Antim. Pot. Tart., in one-third grain doses every four hours. 10, A.M.-Matters just in the same state; pulse and countenance good; had slept a little; no vomiting, but nausea, from the medicine; taxis again failed.-To continue the mixture. Apply twelve leeches to the scrotum, and to have a warm bath every four hours, keeping a strict watch for any more urgent symptoms of strangulation. June 7th.-Still the same. Consultation with Mr. Hey, of Bridport. Both of opinion that, without more decisive symptoms of strangulation, a continuance of the antiphlogistic treatmlent was proper.-Ordered venesection to thirty ounces, a strong purgative dose large tepid-water enemata, and turpentine stupes over the abdomen, in case of any tenderness arising. 9th.-The patient continued in much the same state, and undergoing similar treatment, getting weaker, when stercoraceous vomiting occurred early in the morning, or during the night preceding. Assisted by Mr. Hey, I at once operated, and found the tumour to consist chiefly of omentum, with about eight inches of small intestine, both intensely congested. The hernia was easily returned, the patient bearing the operation well on the whole, but there was a considerable tendency to syncope. lOth.-Had a very restless night; symptoms of rapid astlienic peritonitis ; pulse 150, and almost imperceptible; extremities cold; vomiting still stercoraceous; no movement of bowels.-Ordered nine leeches to the abdomen, turpentine stupes, and tolerably full doses of calomel and opium every three hours.
