About mercury dioxide, as antisepticum in gynecology
Abstract
Numerous clinical observations of the last time, mainly over the course of incised wounds, have convinced surgeons and gynecologists to a sufficient extent that the primary role in the healing of these wounds is played by cleanliness, and not by disinfectants. Suffice it to point to such authorities in this respect as Bantok, Lawson-Tait, Thorntorn, De Granville, Kocher. Sklifosovsky and others. Some of the surgeons and gynecologists of modern asepsis have gone so far in their views that they look at all disinfectants as self-deception, while others consider the presence of some non-pathogenic microorganisms even useful (?) In the fight against accidentally caught pathogenic and therefore delay the growth of the former seems to be irrational. But on the other hand, there are not a small number of surgeons who have asepsis alongside antiseptics and who cannot refuse, if not "in the leading", then in the "known role" and disinfectants, not because routine has been mixed up in such a setting, but due in part to the conditions under which they have to work, in part to the undoubtedly beneficial properties of known disinfectants.
Some comments on the production of a legitimate artificial abortion by scraping
Abstract
Recently, two works have appeared in the Russian medical literature, treating about scooping or scraping as a method for producing a legitimate artificial miscarriage: part of the pr., I. Lvov), and part of the pr., A. A. Muratov). Both of these authors refer to an article by Dr. P. Puech, entitled: "Du Curettage comme méthode d'avortement artificiel", published in the August book of Annales de Gynécologie et d'obstétr. for 1895. Within the meaning of this reference, one may think that Puech was the first to recommend this method in print as an independent one and pointed out its advantages over all other methods practiced before to induce an artificial abortion. Lvov (1. p.), Says: “True, many other authors resorted to removing the fetal egg from the uterus with a sharp or blunt spoon, but they resorted to this method not on their own, but accidentally, as an auxiliary technique when it was impossible to remove fertile eggs in another way. "

Lubrication of the abdomen with chloroform ointment, as a replacement for chloroforming during childbirth
Abstract
For pain relief of labor in cases of convulsive and extremely painful attempts, I had to experience lubrication of the abdomen with a mixture of 1 part chloroform and 2-3 parts oi. olivarum. The results obtained are so good that I decide to publish them, although I have only three such observations. In the cases under consideration, I did this: with the indicated mixture of chloroform with ol. olivarum, the abdomen of the woman in labor was abundantly lubricated and a warming compress was immediately applied to it.
