Not illustrated. 1884 Excerpt: ...action. This course, if successful, should be continued until the hemorrhage entirely ceased, and then the speculum should be partially closed and carefully withdrawn. If the hemorrhage, however, is found to be rapid and alarming, the bleeding vessel must at once be tied, twisted, or cauterized, before resorting to irrigation. 1. Ligation. For the purpose of seizing and ligating a bleeding vessel some considerable distance up the rectum, I use, instead of the common tenaculum, my long and slightly curved spring forceps, as represented by Fig. 17, which I had constructed especially. It has a sliding attachment, intended chiefly as a porte-liqature, lying flat upon its upper blade, and nearly of the same length. This attachment at its distal end has a beak for holding and carrying the loop of the ligature; near its centre it is armed with two narrow flanges which partially embrace the lower blade of the forceps; and near its proximal extremity it has a rougli button, by means of which the slide is projected as far as necessary for carrying the loop of the ligature, and also retracted; by these two movements the blades of the forceps may be locked and unlocked, as may be desired. The operator, seeing the bleeding vessel through the speculum, seizes it with the forceps, previously armed with a suitable silk ligature of sufficient length, and having the proper noose in the centre of it. He now projects the slide, by which movement he locks the blades, and carries the ligature to the seized vessel. He then places the locked forceps into the hands of the assistant who holds the speculum; and the operator, whilst holding both ends of the ligature in his left hand, and with a long probe in his right, disengages the noose from the beak of the porte-ligature, and plac...
