SURGERY.

Professor Christian.

In Operative Surgery the first aim is to ground the student thoroughly
in the principles and technique of modern aseptic surgical procedure.
All amputations and ligations, the application of splints,
bandages and apparatus for different fractures, are shown upon the
cadaver. To insure a practical knowledge of the subject, each student
will be required to perform the operations upon the cadaver as a part
of his examination for graduation.
