Описание: Excerpt from Papers on the Therapeutic Value of Localized Movements

Case ]i. - In january, 1868, a young lady of superior intellectual development, an authoress of considerable reputation, while walking with a gentleman, slipped and fell towards the ground, with her left arm extended. She was unable to tell whether her hand touched the ground or not; but, as she did not lose her hold upon the arm of her companion, it is certain that no direct injury could have been inﬂicted by the fall, nor did any symptoms arise at the time to alarm her. On the following day, however, her left arm was numb and powerless, and for six weeks it remained in the same condition. About this time it improved somewhat, and, though at intervals it was subject to attacks of diminished motility without apparent cause, it advanced consider ably towards a state of normal power during the next three months. In July a sister was attacked with typhoid fever, and, in consequence of the anxiety, loss of sleep, and confinement to the sick-room while nursing her, Miss A. Became completely exhausted. As she ap proached this state of prostration, her left shoulder-joint began to become stiﬂ and painful, and as the condition advanced it assumed a perfect rigidity. After trying a variety of treatment without any benefit, she applied to Dr. Taylor, in October, 1868, for advice. Her arm was confined to her side by muscular spasm, and the shoulder was consid erably elevated by contraction of the trapezius the deltoid was some what atrophied, and the limb presented many of the features of a subluxation. A careful examination, however, showed conclusively that such was not the case. She was placed under the inﬂuence of nitrous oxide gas, and the limb was moved freely in every direction.
