Show PUTTING A LIMB IN PLASTER. On Tuesday last we witnessed the operation, performed by Dr. (Doctor) Ormsby of putting the leg of little Francis Torgeson in plaster. The child is the same who underwent the operation of excision of the hip joint about four weeks ago. The wound in the hip had almost entirely healed, the little fellow had progressed rapidly towards recovery, and it was deemed best to place the limb in plaster so as to insure its having the best and most natural position when fully healed. |
