her cause. The possibility of such anoccurrence is readily admitted. The X-ray findings show that it isprobably much more frequent than has been suspected. In a seriesof thirty-six cases detected by the author over fifty per cent, wereureteral calculi. Clinical experience shows that other pathologic conditions oftensimulate calculous nephritis so closely in their symptomatology thatan absolute diagnosis cannot be made by ordinary methods. Even inexploratory nephrotomy an expert surgeon is liable to err. Thiswas shown in the case of Taylor and Tripp, and has lately been demon-strated in another case in which a large calculus was not detected byan expert surgeon, who even went so far as to report it as a case inwhich the symptoms were most misleading, as they were typical ofcalculus, yet none was present. The radiograph demonstrated thepresence of the calculus. The mechanical accuracy of this method is very great. Errorcan creep in only through faulty technic or lack of skill in reading
