This historical work, On The Electrolytic Treatment Of Tumours And Other Surgical Diseases, by Julius Althaus, presents a fascinating glimpse into 19th-century medical practices. Originally read before the Medical Society of London in 1867, the paper delves into the innovative (for the time) use of electrolysis in treating various surgical conditions, most notably tumors.

Althaus's work provides valuable insights into the early explorations of electrotherapy and its application in surgical contexts. While medical understanding and techniques have drastically evolved since then, this document remains a significant historical artifact, showcasing the nascent stages of electro-medical interventions and offering a unique perspective on the medical landscape of the era. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of medicine, oncology, and the evolution of surgical treatments.
