Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1907, Vol. 134
As the threading of these very fine needles is difficult, the double arming of the silk may be avoided by a slight modification of the procedure, which we have used of late. A single needle, threaded, is passed from the under surface of the spleen upward into the apex of the transplantation hole, made in the manner described; then, impaling a parathyroid, it is carried back into the hole from which it has just emerged and thence through to the under surface of the spleen a few millimeters from its point of entrance.
