Case No. 35181 and Lí Shí
Description:
Title supplied by curator., Date supplied by curator., Sixteenth Report of the Ophthalmic Hospital for the Year 1850 and 1851, printed at the office of the Chinese Repository. p. 20: No. 35181, March 25th, 1850. Steatomatous tumor, nineteen and a half inches in circumference. Lí Shí, aged 43, of the district of Pwanyü, had a steatomatous tumor, which seventeen years since commenced just above the clavicle of the left side. When she presented herself at the Hospital, it had attained the abovementioned dimensions, and hung pendulous down into the axilla and over the breast, descending nearly to a level with the umbilicus. Its surface was traversed by large veins, and in several instances there had been copious hemorrhage from superficial ulcerations in the most pendent portion. On the 10th April half a drachm of chloroform was administered, and in less than two minutes she was perfectly insensible, when the tumor was extirpated in two minutes. It weighed 2 3/4 lbs. (...) Having eaten a hearty breakfast, the patient rejected it soon after the tumor was removed. She readily recovered from the effect of the chloroform, and uttered her “many thanks to Jesus and her (?) Father in Heaven”. Before the operation she expressed a determination to put her trust in Christ should she survive the operation. She was a woman of great natural loveliness of character, and seemed much interested in the Gospel during her abode in the Hospital. In three weeks she was perfectly well. Her kind and devoted husband stood at her head as she lay upon the table during the operation, and as he witnessed her deathlike appearance while insensible, he was the impersonation of grief, but this was momentary; as she revived, it was difficult to say which of them was the happiest., and This electronic record is derived from historic data and may not reflect our current information.

Case No. 27231 and Lú-shú
Description:
Title supplied by curator., Date supplied by curator., Fifteenth Report, Chinese Repository, Vol. 15, 1850, p. 267-268: “17th April, 1848. Hypertrophy of both breasts of ten years growth, successfully removed under the influence of chloroform. Lú-shú, aged 42, of the district of Nanhai, first presented herself at the hospital, April 17th; and when about to operate upon her, after a few weeks preparatory treatment, her impatient opium-smoking husband, (268) suddenly summoned her home, and the woman returned and renewed the request to have her burden removed, which has increased nearly one third since she first presented herself. On 24th Dec 1849, in the presence of Dr. Bowring, and several other gentlemen, assisted by Dr. Marjoribanks, and my senior pupil the left breast, measuring two feet, two and a half inches in circumference and weighing 4 1/2 catties (6 lbs.), was removed in three and a half minutes. When she came to the operating table she was under high nervous excitement, which was rather increased by the first application of chloroform, and being a Romanist, invoked the name of the Virgin Mary as well as of the Savior. And very soon after the second exhibition she became quite insensible, and the following day stated that she was only conscious, when the sutures were applied after the breast was removed. In one month after the right breast, measuring two feet and weighing 5 1/2 lbs., was removed in three minutes. She came almost instantly under the influence of chloroform, which was administered at her own request, at first she seemed in a state of pleasurable excitement, chanting or singing, till she became silent and motionless. At one time she seemed to choke with spasms, and resembled a person in apoplexy; she revives as one awakes from sleep, with a natural expression upon her countenance. She complained rather more of the wound, than is usual when chloroform is administered. In one month she was discharged perfectly well.”, and This electronic record is derived from historic data and may not reflect our current information. Review and updating of records is ongoing.
