Amputation of the vaginal portion of the cervix cured the vomiting and
completely restored the patient’s health.
The frequency of gastric affections in cases of retroflexion of the
uterus is insisted on by _Panecki_. In eight instances he found neuroses
of the stomach consequent upon such retroflexion, and in all cases a
cure immediately followed rectification of the position of the uterus.
He urges that if after the reposition of the retroflexed uterus the
gastric troubles should still persist, a careful local examination of
the stomach is indispensable.
_Eisenhart_, in a woman forty-two years of age, corrected a mobile
retroflexion of the uterus, and thereupon very severe gastric symptoms
of several months’ duration soon disappeared. _Graily-Hewitt_, in an
unmarried woman twenty-seven years of age, cured by reposition of a
retroflexed uterus a gastric disorder which had subsisted for nine
years; _Elder_ and _Henrik_ report identical results in gastric troubles
consequent on retroflexion or retroversion of the uterus. _Jaffé_, in a
virgin, aged twenty-three, who had been brought near to death by gastric
disorder with vomiting, found on local examination that there was a
profuse, thick, purulent discharge from the interior of the uterus;
curetting, and irrigation of the uterine cavity with antiseptic
solutions, gave immediate relief to the stomach trouble. Similar
experiences are recorded by _C. van Tussenbeck_ and _Mendes de Leon_ in
cases of gastric disorder consequent on _endometritis fungosa_ and
_endometritis interstitialis parenchymatosa_; and by _Gottschalk_, in
cases consequent on sarcoma of the chorionic villi. _Lewy_ and
_Butler-Smythe_ have observed the relief of pernicious vomiting by
_Emmet’s_ operation (trachelorraphy).
