Excerpt from Practical Observations on Some of the Diseases of the Rectum, Anus, and Contiguous Textures: Giving Their Nature, Seat, Causes, Symptoms, Consequences, and Prevention, Especially Addressed to the Non-Medical Reader The diseases incidental to the Rectum and Anus are of fra quent occurrence among all classes, and in consequence of their seat, as well as their nature, are perhaps the occasion of more annoyance and of more suffering to the patient than, with few exceptions, any other class of diseases. Of extreme frequency we know of none more difficult to treat successfully, we find none less generally understood, and none in which a rational treatment is of more service. Who will attempt to affirm that they are as well understood as they should be, or that they have been studied with that care and discrimination which their importance demands? Indeed the idea already prevails to a considerable extent, that beyond the treatment of fistula in ano and haemorrhoids, the surgery of the rectum and anus is a sort of land of the Cimmerians, where quacks alone can breathe and humbug darkens the air. But those diseases are as susceptible as any others, of exact observation, of scientific analysis, and of simple and appropriate treatment. It is true, the rapid progress of modern pathology and surgical practice, is daily introducing many improvements, but no successful attempt has yet been made to apply these accumulated and daily accumulating facts to this class of diseases.
