Walsh Performed First Operation For Appendicitis
The late Dr. C. C. Chase was the first surgeon to operate for appendicitis in Merrill. If our memory serves us right, the operation was made on a woman in the Sixth Ward.
The operation was successful and the lady may be alive today.
Operations for appendicitis are only about 45 years old. Before that, people suffering from appendicitis, died from inflammation of the stomach.
Operations for appendicitis had been known a year or two when Dr. Walsh performed this operation. He was fresh from college and knew the new tricks in surgery.
