To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
311 the following note : ' Palat says that tv/ist of the colon is to twist of the small intestines as 4 to i. Schultze has recorded 69 cases of twists of the intestines in the direction of the long axis of the organ ; 56 cases were of the colon, and 13 only of the small intestine. Of a total of 618 fatal cases of colic recorded at the veterinary school of Vienna, torsion of the large colon was noticed 166 times." 'Jelkmann assures us that out of 192 horses dead from colic 70 succumbed to this a...ffection (torsion), and he remarks that out of 23 autopsies on horses 10 revealed displacements of the large colon.' The truth of the matter is this : Once the veterinarian has recognized the condition, and has accustomed him- self to demonstrate it at post-mortem (which demon- stration in many cases is far from easy), he finds that deaths from torsion of the large colon are far more numerous than he has hitherto supposed. Incidentally, this ready recognition of torsion eliminates from the veterinarian's notebook many cases that he has in all probability previously recorded as enteritis, and teaches him the fact that enteritis as a condition per se is a thing comparatively rare.
