distended, I was led
to believe, that the urethra had been perforated by the previous efforts to
introduce a catheter and bougee; and that the mercury had passed on the
outside of the bladder into the cellular membrane.

As the urethra is so liable to be perforated by the forcible efforts to
introduce the catheter, when the bladder is violently distended in this
deplorable disease, I should strongly recommend the injection of a pound or
two of crude mercury into the urethra to open by its weight the neck of the
bladder previous to any violent or very frequent essays with a catheter
whether of metal or of elastic resin.
