Kerby, I have ascertained, beyond the possibility of doubt, that the brachial plexus in people who die of hydrophobia but stop! I had better show you how it is the preparation is upstairs under my wash-hand stand." He left his seat as he spoke. In another minute he would have sent the servant to fetch the "preparation," and I should have lost the story.
Exsection of the brachial plexus was performed, but gave only temporary relief. The man died in his eighty-fourth year of senile debility. According to Osler the tubercula dolorosa or true fascicular neuroma is not always made up of nerve-fibers, but, as shown by Hoggan, may be an adenomatous growth of the sweat-glands.
This will permit of individual examination. Sketches of the sciatic nerve, brachial plexus, and of sections through the brain and spinal cord should be made. *Location of Nerves in the Body.*—Several of the nerves of the body lie sufficiently near the surface to be located by pressure and are easily recognized as sensitive cords. These are all large nerves.
We have just seen that the brachial muscle could at one time move the forearm and hand, but that when they are fixed it could then use the humerus as a lever and thereby lift the weight of the body. What should we think of a metal engine which could reverse its action so that it could act through its piston-rod at one time and through its cylinder at another?
Its superior extremity forms a flattened head that fits rather imperfectly into a shallow cavity in the humeral angle of the scapula. The inferior extremity resembles a portion of a cylinder in shape, and fits into shallow depressions in the superior extremity of the principal bone of the forearm. The muscles here are divided into two regions, anterior and posterior brachial.
Should the subject be seriously inconvenienced by the application of a brace or other supportive appliances, it is necessary to employ slings. Further, if weight is supported entirely by the unaffected member, laminitis may supervene if a sling is not used. Thrombosis of the Brachial Artery. Thrombosis of the brachial artery or of its principal branches is of very rare occurrence in horses.
The hog's pulse can easily be taken from the femoral artery on the internal region of the thigh. The artery crosses this region obliquely and is quite superficial toward its anterior and lower portion. The dog's pulse is usually taken from the brachial artery. The pulse wave can be readily felt by resting the fingers over the inner region of the arm and just above the elbow.
A handkerchief was at once tied round the wounded limb, with a small pebble so placed as to compress the brachial artery inside the forearm, and with the iron ramrod from a carbine as a lever, we screwed this rough tourniquet up until the circulation was in great measure cut off.
If the original injury is attended with much shock, the bleeding may not take place until the period of reaction. Rupture of the popliteal artery in association with fracture of the femur, or of the axillary or brachial artery with fracture of the humerus or dislocation of the shoulder, are familiar examples of this injury.
