Here again many experiments were needed to determine whether an animal could live with the intestinal contents thus '"side- tracked," and if life could be maintained, what was the best method of doing the operation. In gunshot wounds of the intestines, which formerly were among the most fatal of all accidents, we now can rescue a very large percentage of the patients. During the civil war practically almost every case of perforation of the intestine by gunshot died. To see whether some- thing c...ould not be done to remedy this frightful mortality Gross many years ago performed some experiments to de- termine the best treatment of such wounds. Later Parkes etherized a num- ber of dogs, shot them, opened the abdo- men and treated the wounds in various ways; and in consequence of this and other series of experiments, at the pres- ent time many instances of recovery have been reported in which multiple wounds even to the number of seventeen have been found closed by methods de- termined by vivisection to be the best, and the patients have recovered.
