Abstract: THE experiences of the Boston Lying-in Hospital with acute surgical emergencies from 1916 to 1939 have been reported.§ Because of the subsequent introduction of newer methods of therapy and in order to answer questions concerning the effect of pregnancy on acute abdominal conditions and the effect of acute abdominal conditions on pregnancy, it has been thought advisable to add the experiences of the Boston Lying-in Hospital with acute surgical emergencies for the years 1939–1948 to those already published.

Abstract: In the past a great deal has been written on the question of the Possible occurrence of female genital tuberculosis as a primary disease, and in recent years this matter has been discussed by a number of writers. The possibility of primary genital tuberculosis is doubted or denied by Heynemann (1940), Auerbach (1942), Goodall (1943) and Bates and Rucker (1944). On the other hand, Schmid (1940) reports five cases of tuberculosis of the vulva which are suggestive of a primary origin. Each case occurred soon after cohabitation, three of the men having tuberculous epididymitis and the other two open pulmonary tuberculosis. A case of presumed primary tuberculosis of the cervix is reported by Tasche (1940) ; the husband of this patient suffered from prostatic tuberculosis. Bjornstad (1946) describes two cases of probable primary genital tuberculosis. One was a woman who developed the disease following intercourse with a man suffering from tuberculous epididymitis, the other a man whose wife had tuberculous salpingo-oophoritis. Clemetsen (1947) discusses the case of a man with a primary tuberculous ulcer of the penis, who developed the disease after intercourse with a Ionian with tuberculous salpingitis. An example of probable primary tuberculosis of the vulva is reported by Benjamin and Charnock (1949). Wilson (1949) describes four cases of primary genital tuberculosis occurring as a venereal disease, one case of his own and three from the literature, all four of these, inoculation was in lacerations of the hymen and
TL;DR: A recent demonstration of entrance of amniotic fluid into areas of premature separation of the placenta has served to call attention to this problem again and to focus it on cases with abnormal.
Abstract: THE syndrome of acute fatal amniotic-fluid embolism in parturient women, although relatively rare, is adequately described in the literature,1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and the occurrence of nonfatal cases has been suggested.7 Since the mechanism of entrance of the amniotic fluid into the maternal circulation has been unexplained in most of the cases reported, some writers have postulated that vessels of the placental site are often the point of entrance. However, a recent demonstration of entrance of amniotic fluid into areas of premature separation of the placenta10 has served to call attention to this problem again and to focus it on cases with abnormal . . .
