oe Barth Expert, in Inspired In- terview, Says This Step May Be Found Necessary. | LONDON, June 25.—In what is be-! Neved to t an inspired article the Times's me. cal expert discusses (his morning the operation on King Ed- ‘ward and intimates that another op- er tion may be necessary. In discussing the failure of the sur- | geons to remove the appenfix or) otner structures which might contasn | the germs of future danger, the writer says: “It is occasionally better to be con. :nt in tuc first fustance with the immediate evacuation of the pus, and to de. + a radical cure until a later period.” It is this expression which {s taken in medical circles to indicate the pos- sible necessity for another operation. | The usual contiict between the medi} eal critics has already broken out. One! writer says that though the necessity mf surgery in His Majesty's case was obvious, the actual operation was mis- directou. An eminent hospital surgeon, whose fdentity {s not disclosed, 1s quoted as saying that the doctors were wrong In| Giagnosing the trouble as perityphilitis and In cutting down the patient's right side. Dr. Treves found & very large sac, which was full of putrid pus, as goon as he got through the abdominal wall. When this was evacuated the In- tenfled operacion was not completed. It | remains a question whether there t« any infiltration of pus into the periton- eum. This latest news explains the apparent hesitation of the medical authorities in thelr diagnosis when the operation was deseribed as successful Tt Is recognized by all medical men who are acquainted with the King’s gen- eral condition that he ts an unfavorable Subject for such a crisis as the present He 1s what is described as a good 1! and {s ill-prepared to endure a severe test of his constitution. His recent life has been a steady over-!ndulgence in/ both work and pleasure. His malady !s much more serious thun | an ordinary case of appendicitis. It is| admitted that other parts of the Intes-| tines are Involved, and the amount of adipose tissue encountered in the opera- tion presents a grave difficulty, as it May retard the healing of the wound and give rise to blood poisoning. The danger of peritonitis 1s very great. Chasce of Survival Small. | The nature of his malady proved much more serious than an ordinary gise of appendicitis, It is not stated by the | doctors whether they removed the ver- | miform appendix, but it is admitted thar other parts of the Intestines are in- volved in the mischief. These unfavorable circumstances, to- wether with direct information from the palace late last night, force the lament able conclusion that His Majesty s chance of survival Is very small, Such, indeed is the belief of independent medi- eal men who have become acquainted with the royal patient's condition.
