An Operation by Telegraph in Australia
An operation carried out under directions from a distant surgeon 1800 miles away and sent by telegraph saved a life in Avetricin. The patient fell from a horse at Falls Creek, Northern Australia, suffering a urethral rupture and other injuries. With no local doctor within 1000 miles, telegen telegraph details from Perth and mail back from Ani's Creek, using a ciner instrument, enabled the operation and successful restoration.
