    Further investigation by postmortem examination and separate catheterization of the ureters is necessary for definite conclusions relative to these cases. The points of importance suggested by a clinical and statis- tical study of the cases already reported are: (1) That the simple apoplectic form of albuminuric retinitis is the least dangerous to life; (2) that in al- buminuric cases, in which the associate symptoms are not extremely severe and can be fairly controlled by medication and diet, retinitis is not a fatal sign as long as it remains unilateral.
