Excerpt from Renal Growths: Their Pathology, Diagnosis, and Treatment
No systematic treatise on growths of the kidney has as yet appeared in this country. The present work is an attempt, at least in some measure, to supply this want. As far as possible I have endeavoured to indicate the work already accomplished, and to suggest lines for further research.
It is a pleasing duty to acknowledge the valuable assistance that has been afforded me in my investigations. I am specially indebted to the members of the staff of the Manchester Royal Infirmary, for full opportunities of examining a number of cases, and to Professor Delepine for permission to avail myself of material in the Pathological Department of the Owens College. My best thanks are clue to Mr. Targett, late Curator of the Museum of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, for his most generous kindness in placing at my disposal his valuable collection of photographs, with notes of many rare forms of renal growth. Mr. Paul, of Liverpool, has also greatly assisted by allowing me to examine his collection of microscopic specimens, and permitting me to have photographs taken of several.
I have also to express my obligations to the kind courtesy of Dr. Affleck and Dr. Leith, Dr. Rolleston and Professor Kanthack, Professor Cunningham, Dr. Warthin, and Mr. Henry Morris, and the editors of the Journal of Anatomy and Physiology, for their kindness in granting me the use of certain illustrations.
Among the Museums visited during the course of my researches, I must in particular express my indebtedness to that of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
