abstract="Last century's &quot;Correspondenzblatt für Schweizer Aerzte&quot; printed clinical observations of four different case-histories. Illustrating the difficulties our predecessors were confronted with, it gives us a picture of their initiatives, their sense of responsibility, and at times of their inability. It explains: The failure of an experiment with an infusion of sodium chloride in the case of a state of shock, a cesarian operation--crowned with success--a case of Fungus haematodes (Schwannoma) in the fossa jugularis and a trepanation performed on a young woman with a serious skull fracture. A special train was made available to take Prof. U. Krönlein from Zurich to Bad Ragaz. The urgent operation took place at night, by candle light in the bathing halls of Bad Pfäfers.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
