  • Thomas Peel Dunhill, the Forgotten Man of Thyroid Surgery
    THOMAS PEEL DUNHILL, THE FORGOTTEN MAN OF THYROID SURGERY by I. D. A. VELLAR* THE MODERN surgeon approaches the surgery of thyrotoxicosis with confidence, the confidence derived from the excellence of modem anaesthesia, the euthyroid state of the patient and the knowledge that blood transfusion, antibiotics and the specific management of the occasional crisis are always available to extricate the patient from any of these complications. Though full of confidence in his own and others' abilities, he usually matches this by a profound ignorance of the contribution of the thyroid pioneers whose activities at the turn of the century helped to lay the foundation for the safe management of the thyrotoxic. One of these pioneers was an Australian, Thomas Peel Dunhill (fig. 1), whose contributions to thyroid surgery have been almost entirely forgotten. To understand fully the role of Dunhill, it is important to look at the position of thyroid surgery and in particular, the surgery of toxic goitre at the turn of the nineteenth century and in the first two decades of the twentieth century. It will then be possible to appreciate more fully the achievements of these thyroid pioneers, who enabled the mortality of the surgery of toxic goitre to be reduced from 30-50 per cent (it was 30 per cent at St. Thomas's Hospital, London, as recently as 1910) to a minute fraction of one per cent today. The early history of the surgery of the thyroid gland may be traced in Halsted's painstaking compilations included in his article. 'The operative story of goitre- the author's operation' in the Johns Hopkins Hospital Reports, 1920.1 However, the recognition of goitre goes back many thousands of years.

IVRLA1 RESEARCH REPORT: THE DUBLIN JOURNAL OF MEDICAL AND CHEMICAL SCIENCE CATALOGUE John Mullen and Harriet Wheelock (Researchers) 1. CONTEXT The aim of this project is to provide a full and complete catalogue of The Dublin Journal of Medical and Chemical Science (DJMS)2 from its establishment in 1832 to 1949. DJMS is the longest established medical periodical in Ireland, and is an invaluable source for the history and development of medicine in Ireland. Amongst its contributors and editors are some of the most famous Irish medical practitioners of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In their survey of the literature on Irish medical history Malcolm and Jones have shown that in the past histories of medicine of Ireland have tended to be narrowly focused on institutions, biography and public health, and to be descriptive in nature (1). This project aims to open up DJMS as a source for medical historians who are developing an analytical and contextual approach to their subject, and will hopefully develop further interest in the history of Irish medical publications.

Each one seized the spokes of my wheel, Spun it around, stopped, and left its mark. One struck me in the gall bladder, another slowly bowed my neck, Many of them laid their hands on my face: Light spread inside me, yet the day’s beams faded. That in turn had its effect on the joints of my sole and foot, My step grew heavy, my ankle began to twist. This took the pleasure from vigorous slurping and munching, It tortured my fingers in claw-like cramp. One stroked over my hair, so that it was streaked with grey, And banished me from the daughters to the mothers. The gloss fades, just as on the antique sideboard – The dowling splits, the drawer screeches: you’re out of fashion! But stand tall, with lively spirit, when the naked whirlwind Wildly tears at old trees and clumps of branches, And invisibly my little bird cuts victoriously through the thunderous song of the giant: My bird’s heart beats powerfully, Whether it is rejoicing or afraid, for it is not made to linger in limbo.

  • The Life and Labours of Robert James Graves, M.D
    THE DUBLIN JOURNAL oF I IEDICAL SCIENCE. JANUARY 1, 1878. PART I. ORIGINAL COMMUNICATIONS. ART. I.--The Life and Labours of Robert James Graves, M.D2 By JAMES FOULIS DUNCAN, M~.D.; ex-President, King and Queen's College of Physicians, &c. MR. PRESIDENT,--I have been requested by the Committee appointed to erect a statue to the memory of the late Professor Graves to give a short account of their proceedings, now that their labours have been brought to a close, and to make a few remarks introductory to the proceedings of the day. Some four years ago Dr. Hudson, who then filled the Chair which you now so worthily occupy, on the completion of his pre- sidential career, requested the College to appropriate the then vacant space on your right to a memorial of the late Professor Graves, corresponding in character and dimensions to the other figures which now adorn this hall. This suggestion was at once cordially agreed to. Shortly afterwards a meeting was called of members of the profession and other persons likely to sympathise with the movement, when a large and influential Committee was appointed to carry out the design, Dr. Stokes and Dr. Hudson, with the late Sir W. Wilde, being appointed secretaries. And here, it is only justice to say, that the late Sir W. Wilde, whose untimely death every true-hearted Irishman must deeply lament, a An Address delivered at the unveiling of the statue of Dr. Graves in the tta]l of the College of Physicians, Wednesday, December 19, 1877.

John Boyle O'Reilly. PREFACE We had at first intended that this should be a book without a preface, and indeed it needs none, for it speaks in no uncer- tain tones for itself; but on reconsideration we decided that it would be more seemly to give a short explanation of our aim, our motives, and our methods. As a result of innumerable inquiries which have come to us during our experience as educators, we have been forced to the conclusion that the performances of the Irish race in many fields of endeavor are entirely unknown to most people, and that even to the elect they are not nearly so well known as they deserve to be. Hence there came to us the thought of placing on record, in an accessible, comprehensive, and permanent form, an outline of the whole range of Irish achievement dur- ing the last two thousand years.
