Vergil was then twenty-one years of age nearing his twenty-second birthday and we may perhaps assume in Donatus' attribution of the Culex to Vergil's sixteenth year a mistake in some early manuscript which changed the original XXI to XVI, a correction which the citations of Statius and Lucan favor.
Camper records such a case from ulcer of the neighboring or connecting intestine; Frank, from cohesion and suppuration of the rectum; Marcellus Donatus, from penetrating ulcer of the rectum; and Petit, from communication of the rectum and bladder in which a cure was effected by the continued use of the catheter for the evacuation of urine.

Ash, in the Philosophical Transactions, records a somewhat similar case in a girl of twelve. Anomalies of the Teeth.
