Case III of my series is, as far as I know, the only case in which the dividing walls were incised and their cut edges united by suture, and also in which a successful result followed.

Unfortunately, the majority of common-duct patients have either never had an intermission or have passed beyond it, and operation is no longer an election as to time, but a necessity, and, no matter how desperate the condition of the patient, must be done to save life.
