Excerpt from Surgery of the Upper Abdomen in Two Volumes, Vol. 1 of 2 There has been no department of surgery which has attracted more attention, in recent years, than the surgery of the upper abdo men. Numerous monographs, dealing with various phases of the subject, have been published in English, in French, in German, and in other modern languages. It seemed to the authors that a stage had been reached when it would not be without value to review this subject, and to. Present to the profession the results of their studies, as well as an expression of opinion based on these studies and on an experience, which has not been very limited, with the treatment, operative and otherwise, of the surgical lesions of the stomach, duodenum, liver and bile passages, pancreas, and spleen. The present volume comprises the surgery of the stomach and duodenum; and it is hoped that the publication of the second volume will not be long delayed. An immense mass of literature has accumulated within recent years dealing with the surgery of the stomach; and to consult all of this, and to sift the valuable from the worthless, has been no light task. It was realized, however, that opinions based on personal work alone are at times liable to bias; and it has therefore been the endeavour of the authors, while always stating explicitly their own Opinions and practices, also to present those of other surgeons; and to express their own adherence to or dissent from those views and practices, as well as the reasons therefor, with candour and sincerity. It has not been deemed advisable, nor would it have been possible in a work of this size, to give every bibliographical reference con sulted; but there has been appended to each section a list of the more important references.
