Excerpt from Cancer and Other Tumours of the Stomach The present volume is divided into two parts, the first of which deals with Gastric Carcinoma, and the second with the various other Tumours which affect the Stomach and the Duodenum. The general description of the morbid anatomy of the malignant disease is based upon the post-mortem records of 3,679 cases which we collected from different sources; while the more special phenomena connected with its pathology are derived from an analysis of 265 cases which were examined after death at the London Hospital and the London Temperance Hospital. With three exceptions the illustrations have been prepared for us from specimens contained in the museums of the aforementioned hospitals or in that of the Royal College of Surgeons. The old method of classifying gastric carcinomata according to their macroscopical appearances has been responsible for so many erroneous conclusions respecting their pathology and clinical aspect that we have adopted the nomenclature suggested by Drs. Perry and Shaw in their admirable article in the Guy's Hospital Reports, and have employed the terms 'scirrhus, ' 'medullary' and 'adeno-carcinoma' to indicate growths which possess a definite histological structure. The substitution of the microscope for the naked eye has also had the effect of demonstrating that the infectivity of a carcinoma of the stomach is infinitely more rapid and diffuse than the presence of visible metastases has been held to indicate; and we are convinced that much of the non-success that has attended the performance of pylorectomy has arisen from a deficient appreciation of the widespread nature of the disease.
