Mr Foubert, in the 2d volume of the 

 Memoirs of the Academy of Surgery, 

 tells us, that he had an opportunity of 

 diffedling the arms of two perfons whom 

 he had cured of the fpurious incyfted aneu- 

 rifm of the arm, without making any li- 

 gature ; and fays, that, in both, he found 

 a little hard knot^ and the aponeurofis of 

 the arm growing firmly to the artery at 

 the part where it had been opened. Upon 

 opening the artery on the oppofite fide, 

 he obferved the little hole of the artery 

 firmly plugged up with a piece of coagu^ 

 lated blood ; upon removing of which, 

 he faw the aponeurofis grown firmly to 

 tjie outer fide of the artery.
