The same process is repeated upon the opposite side.Examine bladder and internal genitals. The technic of this exami-nation depends largely upon the conditions present. When the exami-nation of the upper urinary tract (kidney and ureter) has led to anysuspicion of disease, it is best not to detach the kidney from the ureteror ureter from the bladder until the examination has been completed.The examination of the pelvic viscera can usualh^ best be accomplishedafter evisceration of the pelvis.

Evisceration ofthe pelvis is best accomplished by an incision anteriorly, under the jiubicarch, hugging the true pelvis posteriorly, and removing the rectum withthe other contents of the pelvis. The testicle may be removed withoutany external incision in the scrotum by simply dissecting the skinanteriorly from the pubes and pulling the testicle by the spermatic cordgently up into the wound, from which it may be removed, if necessarydissecting the cord around to th
