TY - JOUR PY - 1904// TI - Contribution to the surgery of the deep urethra JO - Annals of surgery A1 - Lydston, G. Frank SP - 555 EP - 560 VL - 40 IS - 4 N2 - July 23, 1903, the patient was riding in a buggy behind a spirited horse, which ran away. He sprang out of the buggy just as it was swerved to the side of the street, where the front wheel came in contact with a horse-block. As the patient expressed it, the wheel rose to meet him as he came down astride it. He struck fairly upon the perineum, producing an injury which, considering the fact that the wheel was provided with a rubber tire of good size,was very remarkable. The perineum was torn through just in front of the anus, producing a large lacerated external wound, from which there was a severe haemorrhage, the patient showing the effects of the loss of blood very plainly.
