ELECTRIC KNIFE
FOR SURGICAL OPERATIONS. (Australian Press Association). FREMANTLE, So.pt. 13. Doctor G. Manning, of Sydney, who has returned from London, explained to an interviewer how a new electric knife had aided the medical profession in the progress of reconstructive surgery. • He said that in Vienna the developments in reconstructive surgery were extraordinary. Natural deform-, ities were repaired, and facial features were altered without a trace of the surgeons work. Instead of the ordinary knife, surgeons now used an electric knife heated with a peculiar form of current and when an incision was made, not a drop of blood was lost, though the. surgeon, might cut to any depth.
