First edition. Scarce first edition of this book which illustrated, with historical context, a novel approach to the removal of bladder stones; the "high operation" being a suprapubic lithotomy, not commonly done at the time. This challenging disease, at the time, became more operable for surgeons moving forward in part thanks to this work. Joseph Constantine Carpue (1764-1846) was also known as being the first English surgeon to successfully perform a rhinoplasty, becoming a pioneer in the field of modern plastic surgery. 8vo, iv, 204pp. Complete with 4 plates, three of them folding, one in color. Original blue paper boards with a later rebacking in dark pebbled cloth. Folding plates bound at rear (we have also encountered the color folding plate bound as a frontis), interleaved with "description of plates". Boards damp stained, faint marginal damp staining to upper corner of pgs. 50-57, front endpaper scuffed, else clean and sound, with bright plates. Very good.

8vo, pp. iv, 204, 4 engraved plates (3 large and folding, the first bound as a frontispiece and hand-coloured). Two tears in inner margin of one plate repaired. Modern boards as the original, uncut and largely unopened. Presentation copy, inscribed on a blank leaf before the title: ?Robt Keate Esqre from his Friend, J.C. Carpue:?; then inscribed at the top of the title: ?For St Georges Hospital library from R. Keate 1836?, and with the St. George?s stamp on the title and backs of the plates. FIRST EDITION. G&M 4288. Carpue gives a history of both the lateral and the high operations, from a careful and methodical study of the literature. In the appendix he quotes everything that Franco (1556) wrote on the subject. He then gives an account of the high operation, which had become obsolete. ?Carpue popularized suprapubic lithotomy, a procedure not often previously carried out? (G&M). The first plate shows a diagram of the operation, and the others are of instruments. Robert Keate (1777?1857) was the nephew of the surgeon Thomas Keate and surgeon to St. George?s Hospital in London for forty years.
