aniiin,vnnY.i /■,■. PLATb; XXX. Fig. 1.Shews the mode which I ahnost constantly pursue of re-ducing recent dislocations of the os humeri, by placing theheel in the axilla, and by extending the arm either from abovethe elbow or from the wrist. Fig. 2.Mode of reduction by the pulley; shewing the manner inwhich the scapula is fixed by a bandage which receives thearm, and the pullies applied above the elbow ; as well as thedirection in which extension is to be made in dislocation inthe axilla. If the dislocation be forwards under the clavicle,the arm must be somewhat lowered to avoid the coracoidprocess. Fig. 3.Shews the mode of reducing the dislocation downwards, bythe knee in the axilla.

PLATE XXXr. Fig. 1.Shews an altered state of the neck of the thigh-bone fromdisease, which might be mistaken for fracture and union. Thesame appearance, in a less degree, is sometimes seen in theupper part of the thigh-bone in very old persons ; the headand neck of the bone falling down upon its shaft at thetrochanter minor, and the neck of the bone absorbed.
