STOMACH NOT NEEDED ACCORDING
,To A RECENT OPERATION.
Per-fanned on a Woman in Switzgll and—-
In Time It May be Chssed with the
Veliform Appendix—Themles of Di-
gestion Revolutionized
Is it possible for a human being to
live and enjoy good health without .1
. stomach?
This inquiry is receiving a great
deal of consideration in the medical
profession the world over just now, on
account of the success of an amazing
operation up’on Anna Landis, in Zur-
ich. Switzerland. _
She furnishes the first case ever
known of a person surviving and di-
restingsolid food after a complete re-
moval of the stomach.
Medical records are replete with
cases where large portions of the
stomach have been removed; but there
was always enough left to connect
with the intestines by sutuie and en-
able the patient to dispose of food of
a ce1tain kind.
Two things about the Ope1ation have
staitled the medical profession. F11 st,
its boldness. No physician has ever
before been brave enough to attempt
the entire removal of the stomach,
and even those who have made a par-
tial removal have heated the patient .
for a long time on pre- digested food.
Mrs. Landis was fed with solids
within twenty—four hours after the op-
eration. The second starting point
is that all previous physiological de‘
ductions about the importance of the
stomach as a vital Organ are likely to
be upset. '
There is a possibility that in the
course of time the human stomach
may be classified with the vormiform
appendix and the uvula, as a perfectly
useless piece of anatomy that any man
can get along better without.
It is even suggested that in the proc-
ess of evolution the coming race will
be born without stomachs.
The operation was performed by Dr.
llarl H. Schlatter of Zurich.
Anna Landis, aged fifty—six years, is
a silk weaver by occupation. She
zlaims that cancer is hereditary in her
family. As a child she recalls having
121d frequent attacks of abdominal
pain. Medical treatment had never
afforded her any relief.
The operation lasted two hours and
1 half. A
An assistant held ,up the left lobe of
the liver to enable the operator to
work freely. It was necessary to open
the woman’s body from a point at the
breast bone to the lower part of the
abdomen.
The stomach was taken entirely out,
and the end of an intestine was at‘
tached to the lower end of the gullet,
llius forming a new and independent
cana. After the operation the wom-
an’s pulse was96, steady and of fair
volume. The loss of blood was verv
slight.
For one week the patient was fed
on milk, eggs, brandy and bouillon.
Then the wound was examined and
was found to have healed well._ There-
after the patient was given chopped
meat, and the digestion proceeded
without interruption or abdominal
pain. _,
Ten days after the operation the
woman continued to eat well and took
food in fairly large quantities. She ,
clad only one tOoth, and was‘therefore
rIandicapped in the mastication of her
food. On the tenth day a phenomenon
---Mrs.
Landis had no stomach, and. yet she
had all the symptoms of sickness at
her stomach.
She declared that she was nauseated
3y watching the surgeons change the
dressing on another surgical case. She
had similar attacks of nausea at inter—
vals during the succeeding three
weeks.
After the patient left her bed and
was walking about she was in better
health than she had been fOr a great
many years. Three months after the
operation she was working as an at-
tendant in the hospital.~—New York
