Anomalies and Curiosities of Medicine

CHAPTER XV
32/151

There is a curious case reported of cirsoid tumor of the ear of a boy of thirteen.
Figure 259 shows the appearance before and after operation.
Jessop records a remarkable case of multiple aneurysm.

This case was particularly interesting as it was accompanied by a postmortem examination.

Pye-Smith reports an extremely interesting case in which death occurred from traumatic aneurysm of an aberrant subclavian artery.

The patient fell from a height of 28 feet, lost consciousness for a few minutes, but soon recovered it.

There was no evidence of any fracture, but the man suffered greatly from dyspnea, pain between the shoulders, and collapse.
