ἢν δὲ λίθων ἔμφραξις ἐπίσχῃ τὴν οὔρησιν, τῷ ὀργάνῳ τῷ καθετηρίῳ ὠθεῖν τὸν λίθον ἠδὲ ἄγειν τὸ οὖρον, ἢν μὴ ἔωσι φλεγμοναί . ἐπὶ γὰρ φλεγμονῇσι οὔτε ὁ πόρος δέχεται τὸ ὄργανον, πρὸς δὲ τιτρώσκονται τῷ καθετῆρι. ἢν δὲ  ἄπορος μὲν ᾖ ἡ τῶνδε ἰητρείη, θνήσκῃ δὲ ὀδύνῃσι ὥνθρωπος τάμνειν τὴν πλιχάδαthis would appear to be the true reading. See Petit's Comment. and the note of Ermerins. In all the mss. it is τριχάδα. καὶ τὸν τῆς κυστίδος τράχηλον, ἔς τε τὴν τῶν λίθων ἔκπτωσιν καὶ τὴν τῶν οὔρων ἔκχυσιν. καὶ μάλιστα μὲν ἀκέσασθαι ἐς ὠτειλὴν ἄγοντα τὸ τρῶμα· ἢν δὲ μὴ, Ῥυάδα γενέσθαι τοῦ οὔρου βέλτιον ἐς τὸν αὖθις τοῦ ἀνθρώπου βίον, ἢ τῇ ὀδύνῃ οἰκτίστως θανεῖν.in the mss. the reading is Ῥοιάδα πύου. See Wigan and Ermerins; also Liddel and Scott's Lexicon.
