Spontaneous Rupture of the Normal Spleen

The needle has a removable head so that it can be inserted, the head removed and a larger needle introduced over the smaller one. The first needle is then removed. This gives a freer drainage. In the treatment of septic meningitis, this needle is introduced first. If the patient improves, a lumbar laminectomy must be done because the drainage must be free every minute. That is the mistake that has been made in the past-not getting drainage free enough. PHIMOSED PREPUTIAL SAC SERVING AS AN ADVEN-TITIOUS URINARY RESERVOIRThis case was unusual in that the preputial orifice was so greatly phimosed that a small quantity of urine always remained within the preputial sac, while at the same time five small, smooth and fairly round uric acid calculi were found entrapped therein.
