Excerpt from Archives of Medicine, 1859, Vol. 1: A Record of Practical Observations, and Anatomical and Chemical Researches Connected With the Investigation and Treatment of DiseaseAgain the sound being used produced in the patient a sensation as if the instrument had struck against a ball at the top of the bladder. This was followed by a ¿uttering within her, as if something was moving. The constitutional derangement continued to increase, the local symptoms all became aggravated, and the repetition of the use of the sound was followed on several occasions by exceedingly violent convulsions.In order to prevent mischief from over distension of the bladder, the catheter was, on one occasion, left in the urethra. After passing a very restless night the sensation of motion became very distressing, and, although the urine had escaped as fast as it was secreted, the bladder seemed greatly enlarged. Mr. Barnett was now much surprised on removing the catheter to find, insinuated through its orifice, what appeared to him a roundish worm about the thickness of a piece of bobbin, an inch and a half in length, and of a white colour. Upon a repetition of this experiment, of which Mr. Lawrence also was now a witness, three worms were brought away, two of them most curiously entangled in the orifice of the instrument, and the third coiled round the end.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
