There is also another theory put forth, or rather a modification of Professor Charcot's theory, and maintained by the school of the Charity hospital in Paris, headed by Dr.
Coirin had a dangerous fall from her horse, in September 1716, in her thirty-first year. The medical details may be looked for in Dr. Charcot's essay or in Montgeron. 'Her disease was diagnosed as cancer of the left breast, the nipple 'fell off bodily. Amputation of the breast was proposed, but Madame Coirin, believing the disease to be radically incurable, refused her consent.
In Charcot's disease, bodies composed of bone are formed in relation to the capsular and other ligaments, and may be made to grate upon one another. The clinical features in this group are mainly those of the disease which has given rise to the loose bodies, and it is exceptional to meet with symptoms from impaction of the body between the articular surfaces.
The point that compels our special admiration in Charcot's voyages is that he chose one of the most difficult fields of the Antarctic zone to work in. The ice conditions here are extremely unfavourable, and navigation in the highest degree risky. A coast full of submerged reefs and a sea strewn with icebergs was what the Frenchmen had to contend with.
DISEASES: Errors of development Bacterial diseases: Pyogenic; Gonorrhœal; Tuberculous; Syphilitic; Acute rheumatism Diseases associated with certain constitutional conditions: Gout; Chronic articular rheumatism; Arthritis deformans; Hæmophilia Diseases associated with affections of the nervous system: Neuro-arthropathies; Charcot's disease Hysterical or mimetic affections of joints Tumours and cysts Loose bodies.
Those present were talking about magnetism, about Donato's tricks, and about Doctor Charcot's experiences.
They may be unattended with pain, and may fail to unite; when repair does take place, it is sometimes attended with an excessive formation of callus. Joint lesions of the nature of Charcot's disease may occur simultaneously with the alterations in the bones.
Instead of these continuous, monotonous, weak stimulations of the senses, we find also that sudden and violent ones are made use of for example in the Salpetriere, the field of Charcot's work, the loud noise of a gong, or a sudden ray of light; however, it is more than doubtful whether these sudden, strong, physical stimuli, without any mental stimuli, can induce hypnosis.
Ossifications in muscles, tendons, fasciæ, and ligaments, in those who are the subjects of arthritis deformans, are seldom recognised clinically, but are frequently met with in dissecting-rooms and museums. Similar localised ossifications are met with in Charcot's disease of joints, and in fractures which have repaired with exuberant callus.
