The abscesswas localised beneath the ca-cuni, but the omentum was separatedfrom it by the caecum and some coils of the small intestines. In removing the omentum, all the ligatures ought totransfix and interlock. Silk is the safest and best material, except when the omentum is septic. Then I use raw catgut. -Acute appendicitis with perforation.

Haemorrhage from the meso-appendix is one of the dangersof the operation, but is easily avoided by securing that structurewith sutures of thin silk. Each suture should transfix themeso-appendix and interlock with its neighbour. A smallartery at the ca?cal end of the appendix has usually to besecured with a special suture. In septic cases, I usebiniodide catgut to secure the meso-appendix. A pair of pressure forceps ought to be kept on the stump 246 APPENDICITIS of the meso-appendix, which should not be allowed to fallback into the iliac fossa until it is absolutely certain that itsvessels are perfectly secured. I always carry some curvedpressure forceps lest, owing to the presence of short attach-m
