Abstract
October 8, 1735. Hanvil Anderson, a boy, 11 years of age, was admitted into St. George's hospital near Hyde-Park Corner, for the cure of a hernia scrotialis, which he had had from his infancy, and a fistula between the scrotum and thigh terminating into it, which for a month last past had discharged a great quantity of an unkindly sort of matter. The rupture was small, and not troublesome, and part of it could be replaced, but as it appeared that the sinuous ulcer sprung from that part that could not; so 'twas evident that the cure of the fistula depended upon the cure of the hernia, which latter could be obtained by no other operation than that for the Bubonocele, which was agreed to, and performed the 6th day of December following.
