Haemorrhage into the spinal cord: complicating pregnancy and labour

The following case-which I had the opportunity of closely observing while House-Physician to Dr Alex. Bruce in the Royal Infirmary Edinburgh,whose permission I nave to use the notes I made at the time has many points of interest bearing on various debated subjects. It shows the need of following cases when possible to the postmortem-room, and the necessity of very thorough examination of them there; both as regards obvious morbid appearances and under the microscope to show the exact nature of the lesions and. the correct conclusions to draw from them.It also shows the value which can be placed on similar cases,recorded as primary Haematomyelia, but not supported by post-mortem evidence.
