Register, 1, 9-54, 1818.First ligation of the innominate artery, May 11, 1818. The artery was tied off half an inch below its bifurcation, and the patient suffered no respiratory or circulatory embarrassment. The ligature separated from the artery on the 14th day, but on the 20th day the patient was able to walk downstairs. A fatal hemorrhage occurred from the wound, however, and the patient died on the 26th day. Subjects: VASCULAR SURGERY › Ligations Permalink: historyofmedicine.com/id/4979 |
