Gunshot Fracture of Upper Third of Left Femur, treated by Smith’s Anterior Splint with Partial Recovery. Private Josiah Jones, Co.

The upper posterior cicatrix, as shown in the photograph, represents the wound of entrance; the one below it, the location of the last fistulous opening which closed in November, 1868, after discharging, from time to time, fragments of necrosed bone. The outer scar, in front, indicates the wound of exit; the remaining two, the result of abscesses. Photographed at the Army Medical Museum. By order of the Surgeon General: George A.
