SURGERY.

Acting 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, and the lectures are illustrated
by numerous paintings and morbid specimens. To insure a practical knowledge
of the subject, each student will be required to perform operations upon
the cadaver as a part of his examination for graduation.
