    194. Obstructed Middle Cerebral Artery, associated with deposits upon the valves of the heart. (T. Godart.) 108 195. Drawing of tbe abdominal aorta with the common iliac arteries, from a case of multiple embolic aneurysms. (T. Godart.) 108a 196. Drawing of portions of the brachial, radial, and ulnar arteries, from the same case as the preceding, showing a large aneurysmal sac in communication with the brachial artery. There are calcareous emboli in both the radial and ulnar arteries. (T. Godart.) 1086 197. Drawing of the posterior tibial artery, from the same case as the preceding. The artery opens into a large false aneurysm of the calf. (T. Godart.) 108c 198. Front view of the false aneurysm shown in the preceding drawing. (T. Godart.) 108d 199. Drawing of the microscopical appearances presented by a section of the common iliac artery, from the same case of multiple embolic aneurysms. The section is taken at the seat of embolism, and shows that the internal coat has been destroyed, and that the other coats of the vessel are infiltrated with cells, whilst portions of a calcareous embolus are still visible. (T. Godart.) 108e 200. Drawing of a section of a plugged anterior cerebral artery, from the same case as the preceding. The destruction of the arterial wall in the neighbourhood of the calcareous embolus is well, shown. (T. Godart.) 108/ The specimens are preserved in Series viii., Nos. 1460b, c, d. Of. No. 170. See also Transactions of the Royal Jledico-Chirurgical Society, vol. lxx., p. 117. 201. Drawing of the subclavian artery, showing rupture of the middle and internal coats. The patient, a woman, aged seventy, received a severe injury to the right shoulder, causing fracture of the clavicle and first rib. On admission, no pulse could be felt in the vessels of the arm. She died next day, when the condition shown in the drawing was discovered, namely, that the middle and internal coats had been ruptured, and that they had been stripped off and invaginated forwards by the current of the blood, thus causing complete blocking of the lumen of the vessel. (L. Mark, Esq.) 1089 The artery itself is preserved in Series viii., No. 1384c. IX. DISEASES AND INJUKIES OF VEINS. 202. Sketch of a vein, containing softening clots ; and of lung tissue with deposits (secondary) from a case of pyaemia. (T. Godart.) 109 203. Tortuous and dilated subcutaneous veins, on the front of the trunk of a man, in whom it was believed that the vena cava superior, or one of the vena) innoruinatae, was obliterated. 110 204. Drawing of the abdomen of a man who had the lateral subcutaneous veins very greatly enlarged. The blood in the veins was passing upwards. There was no caput medusa?, as the venules in the neighbourhood of the umbilicus were not dilated. The cause of the enlargement appeared to be thrombosis of the inferior vena cava. 110a From a man, aged 30, a hard drinker, whose left leg swelled two years before he came under observation. Six months after the left leg became enlarged, he noticed a swelling of the right limb. See John Ward Book for 1889, s. v. W. Windsor. A cast of the abdomen is preserved in Series lvi., No. 101b.
