Excerpt from On Some Morbid Appearances of the Absorbent Glands and Spleen
November 2, 1826. Joseph Sinnott, a child of about nine years of age, in Lazarus's ward, under the care of J. Morgan. His brother, his constant companion with whom he had habitually slept, died of phthisis a few months previously; he was much reduced by an illness of about nine months, during which time he had been subject to pain in the back, extending round to the abdomen. On his admission his belly was much distended with ascites. He had also effusion into the prepuce and scrotum. On the latter was a large ulcer induced by a puncture made to evacuate the fluid.
Head. - There was a considerable quantity of serous effusion under the arachnoid and within the ventricles. There were a few opake spots in the arachnoid, but this membrane was in other respects healthy. The pia mater appeared remarkably thin and free from vessels. The substance of the brain was generally soft and flabby, but no local morbid change was observable.
Chest. - The pleura on the right side had contracted many strong and old adhesions, in addition to which there were extensive marks of recent pleuritis. On the left the pleura was nearly or quite free from adhesion, but there was some fluid effused into the cavity.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book studies the structural abnormalities of the lymphatic glands, spleen, and other bodily tissues. The author primarily examines changes in structure that were not noted previously by other researchers, or that may have been misunderstood as cancerous. The author posits that the lymphatic glands play a pivotal role in the development of splenic and other bodily abnormalities. This book extends the frontiers of medical understanding during the early 19th century with fresh insights into processes that either damage bodily tissue through disease or promote healing.
