Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed study of the human vermiform appendix, a vestigial organ often dismissed as obsolete and useless. However, the author argues that this overlooked appendage is a site of great pathological importance and that in certain morbid conditions can become the cause of serious disease. The author provides a comprehensive overview of appendicular disease, drawing on the contributions of numerous other writers, and explores its variations, anatomy, and pathology. The book also features an extended bibliography, making it an excellent starting point for further research. This book assembles the main results of an extensive investigation into a number of points connected with the pathology of the vermiform appendix and will be of value to anyone interested in the anatomy, pathology, and surgery of this small but important organ.
