THE DIRECTORS.
The Inspecting Medical Officer has again to acknowledge the courtesy and consideration he has throughout the year received at the hands of the Directors in all his relations with them.
OPERATIONS.
Cases requiring serious operations are so far as possible persuaded to be transferred to the Government Civil Hospital, and this is much more easily done than in former years, few cases when such a transfer is recommended by the Inspecting Medical Officer refusing consent, and sometimes the native doctors recognising the wisdom of the proposal have joined in the efforts to secure transference to more favourable surgical conditions than can be provided in the Tung Wah Hospital. Operative cases in the Tung Wah Hospital itself are usually dealt with by Dr. Jeu Hawk, whose results have been very successful. Amongst the operations undertaken during the past year have been the following:-
Cataract, 6 Entropion, 13 Harelips, 1 Pterygium, - Amputation, 6 Fistula in ano, 2 Lateral Lithotomy 4 Fibroid, 2 Glands in neck, 42 Phymosis, 10 Enucleation of eyeball, 1 Removal of breast, 3 Trachoma, 30 Paracentesis Abdominis, 10The following Tables are appended:-
I.-Returns of Diseases and Deaths.
II.-Proportion of cases treated by European and Chinese native methods respectively.
III.-Vaccinations.
