Percussion suggested a fluid within a sac. The uterus was drawn up to the extent of from 12 to 14 inches.
Urine was afterward voided through the left pubic opening, and spicules of bone were discharged for two years afterward; ultimate recovery ensued. Barkesdale relates the history of the case of a Confederate soldier who was shot at Fredericksburg in the median line of the body, 1 1/2 inches above the symphysis, the wound of exit being in the median line at the back, 1/2 inch lower down.
