Abstract
Although Frank Hartley (1856-1913) was mostly known as the deviser of the method of bisecting the ganglion of the trigeminal nerve within the skull for the relief of facial neuralgia, it should be noted that he had also done very important work in the surgical treatment of goiter which was neglected at his times but later followed by his successors. Furthermore, he also had interest in the surgical treatment of clubfoot and the exstrophy of the bladder.
