Text Appearing Before Image: n warmsalt solution, the bits of bone re-moved by the rongeur forceps,and when the dura is closed hesows these fragments on thedura, like a thin layer of gravel,and then closes the scalp over this.This brings about restitution of the bony wall. The replacing of thetrephine disc or of large fragments of bone is not necessary, and shouldbe resorted to only when the portion removed is very large and whenthe scalp at the time of the operation is intact. Such replacing of por-tions of bone should not be practised in cases of compound fracture,as infection is more than probable. The flap or flaps of scalp are now brought into place by silkworm-gutsutures, and drainage is secured by introducing a bunch of horsehairthreads here and there betwxen the stitches or by a slight gauze drain.The skin is well cleansed, the wound is dusted with iodoform, and asuitable dry dressing is applied and is secured by means of a tight flannelbandage.After-treatment of Cases of Trephining.—The patient is kept Text Appearing After Image: Fig. 36.—Hernia Cerebri.—{Bryant.) OPERATIONS. 153 absolutely at rest, and the room occupied should be perfectly quiet.The head is kept a little raised. The wound is dressed upon ordinarysurgical principles. In case of fracture, or in case of trephining forepilepsy, etc., in which no lesion of the dura exists, draining by catgutwill suffice. In cases of trephining for the removal of a brain tumor,or the evacuation of a cerebral abscess, drainage with a tube is necessary.In the former case the tube is retained for twenty-four hours only; inthe latter it is retained until the abscess cavity has practically closed,and is shortened as often as required. In a few instances of intracranialsuppuration a second opening in the skull may be necessary to insureperfect drainage. If, after the removal of the drainage-tube in any case pain and throb-bing in the wound are complained of, and if the scalp flap appears to beraised up, it may be necessary to reopen the track of the drainage-tubeto a Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work.
