Excerpt from The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, Vol. 65: January, 1873-April, 1873 Art. II. - Venereal Stricture of the Rectum. By erskine mason, M.D., Adjunct Professor of Surgery in the University Of New York; Visiting Surgeon to the Charity and the Roosevelt Hospitals, New York. When beginning my visits, some six years ago, as surgeon to Charity Hospital, my attention was arrested by the number of cases of stricture of the rectum in the wards. These cases all occurred in the female wards and among those who were regarded as syphilitic patients. I then viewed these strictures as one Of the manifestations of constitutional infection, and, in addition to local treatment by the introduction of bougies, had them placed under anti-syphilitic remedies, indeed some Of them had been already under this treatment for some time. Upon consulting several surgical authors, I found that this was both the Opinion entertained by them and the course of treatment recommended.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

editor ophthalmologist physician
Isaac Hays was born on July 5, 1796, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States, the eldest son of Samuel and Richea Gratz Hays.
Isaac entered the University of Pennsylvania in 1812 and received the degree of B. A. in 1816. His father, a merchant engaged in the East India trade, was eager that his son should enter his business but a short trial proved that the younger Hays was not interested in a mercantile life, and in 1817 he began the study of medicine. He was an office pupil of Dr. Nathaniel Chapman and graduated in medicine at the University of Pennsylvania in 1820.
Having developed a special interest in ophthalmology, in 1822 isaac Hays was given a position on the staff of the Pennsylvania Infirmary for Diseases of the Eye and Ear. In 1834 he was appointed one of the surgeons to the Wills Eye Hospital on its organization, a position which he held until 1854. In 1843 he edited and enlarged the work of Sir William Lawrence, Treatise on the Diseases of the Eye, which went through three editions and aided greatly in advancing a sound knowledge of ophthalmology in the United States. Hays’s work as an editor extended over many years. In 1827 he was appointed to the staff of the Philadelphia Journal of the Medical and Physical Sciences which had been founded in 1820 by Nathaniel Chapman. Within a few months he assumed the editorship of the periodical, changed its title to the American Journal of the Medical Sciences, and secured the cooperation of many representative medical men in all parts of the country. Hays remained its editor until his death.
Hays' other editorial ventures were no less ambitious. In 1834 he projected the American Cyclopedia of Practical Medicine and Surgery, with many contributors, but the time was not ripe for such an extensive work and only two volumes (1834 - 1836) were issued. In 1843 he brought out a new monthly journal, the Medical News, which later became a weekly journal and was published until 1906. In 1874 he began the publication of the Monthly Abstract of Medical Science, the fore-runner of subsequent abstracting journals, but in 1880 it was merged with the Medical News.
Hays’s other works indicated his interest in science and natural history as well as in medicine. He edited Alexander Wilson’s American Ornithology (3 vols. , 1828), which prompted an interesting correspondence with Charles Lucien Bonaparte, and in collaboration with Dr. R. E. Griffith he published Chronic Plilcgmasiac (1831) and Principles of Physiological Medicine (1832), translated from the French o Broussais. In 1848 he brought out Elements of Physics, a revision of the work of Neil Arnott, and in 1855 a new edition of R. D. Hoblyn’s dictionary of medical terms. He died in Philadelphia.
