 Rens0rkable Case. DIr Editor- have recently been witness to one of the most remarkable caees of recovery from severe injury that has ever been recorded in the annals of surgery. The subject Of this sq- years of age, by tho name of St. Martin ]; and hes exhibits theanonoly of 2 living and healthy man, with an aperture iD his side, leading directly into the stomach. The opening is nearly an inch in diameter; and .arough it the interior of the stomach. as well as what he receives for nonfishnSehs or drink, cat, be plainly seen. and food 'may be taken out during any stage of digestion. He can also be fed through the same Ori- fee; and aliment received in luis way, sat- is6es the cravings of hunger as perfectly aa when introduced through the oespphaglls. The injury was inflicted in 1922, by tho accidental discharge of musket. The side, to a large extent, was carried aNay, with a number of the ribs the lower If the left lobe ef the lnngs, and n part Of the, diaphragm. A splinter from one of the ribs perforated the stomach, and allowed the escape of it's contents through the ex- iernal wound. By one of the most forlu-. nate circumstances. the torn stomach adr hered 10 the externat wound, and preyen- ted the eflusion of it's contents into ille ab- dominal cavity---an incident, which, If t had not occurred, must undoubtedly have proved imnediatetx fatal. 4f.~ 1.E Wns.
