This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1870 edition. Excerpt: ... the upper and back part of the vagina, simulating a vaginal fibroid or fibro-cystic or cystic vaginal tumour in that situation. Transition changes and structure varieties occurring sooner or later in all forms of uterine tumour are specially conspicuous in intraparietals of this last description. Erectile intraparietal myoma, or disproportionate hyperplasm of the uterine medulla, a non-cavernous angiom giving rise to rapid fluctuations of volume, the paroxysmal and periodical turgescent state being often perceptible by a bellows sound. Simple muscular hyperplasm. (Edematous hyperplasm of the extremely scant (on the outer half of the uterus scarcely existing) cellular tissue, which appears to have in a great degree taken the place of muscular fibre and become infiltrated. Pseudo-fibroid, a myoma, the fibres of which have become exsanguined, blanched, and hardened, its real muscular affinity betrayed only on close examination, by convoluted plexiform fibre and conchoidal fracture. Calcareous tumour, in hardness yielding only to the saw; yet of madrepore structure resolvable by maceration into aggregations of minute calcareous deposits, similar to what is deposited in the coats of vessels. Separation and transformation cysts--cystic intervals on the muscular structure of the myom, empty or filled with altered blood mixed or not with fluids of exudation or transudation, or contents of cystic transformations of erectile vascular spaces, the larger cysts, --retention cysts, --being partly formed by the uninvaded uterine cavity. Angioma, vascular tumour (Hughes Bennett); Hematoma, blood extravasation (Hooper); Thrombus, clot in a vessel; Cavernous angioma (Virchow), cavernous hyperplasm; Non-cavernous angioma, hyperplasm composed of vessels only;.
