SMALL ANIMAL SUR GERY lt is not merely by holding a lcnife- in a certain position, or making an in cision of definite length or form on the surface of the body, that an operation is performed, unless a person has a com- petent familiarity with the under struc- tures he will do well not to interfere with cutting operations. -Sir William Ferguson, 1842.
