For more information on this author or work, see number: 2218

The present work and Operative gynecology (see No. 2218) are often considered to be Kelly's finest works in clinical medicine. However, in the minds of most general surgeons, his work on the appendix (see No. 2219) may still be considered the best ever written on that subject. The current treatise includes contributions by Lewellys F. Barker, Walter L. Burrage, Prince Albert Morrow, and other medical specialists of the day who willingly contributed their expertise to Kelly's book. The many illustrations are again drawn by Max Brödel and A. Horn.
