Description

About The Book: This book contains the Clinical Illustrations of the More Important Diseases of Bengal suggests that through examining morbid anatomy, a precise judgment can be made about the extent of a disease that has been treated and the confidence in the adopted treatment can be evaluated. However, it is important to remember that morbid anatomy is only useful when compared to the symptoms present during life. Sometimes, the actual morbid condition during life, even the one that caused death, may not be apparent on dissection. For instance, the appearance of the skin in cases of variola or scarlatina, or intense erysipelas on a limb just before death, may not leave significant traces after a few hours of death. Similarly, severe inflammation of the eyes may leave little to no character after death.
