    ON INJECTION OF THE BRONCHIAL TUBES, AND TUBERCULAR CAVITIES OF THE LUNGS, BY HORACE GREEN, M, D., LL.D. {From the American Medical Monthly, January, 1855.] --- The subject which I propose, in this paper, to consider, and the anatomico-physiological questions involved in this discus¬ sion, are, I believe, of sufficient importance in practical medicine to claim the special attention of the members of the medical profession. It is a subject which has been discussed recently in the London and other foreign medical societies, and it has received, moreover, the attention of some of the foreign medi¬ cal writers of distinction. It is therefore quite proper that a question, belonging as this does more especially to American Medicine, should be brought before the profession of this country. But there is another reason why I have concluded to ask attention to the subject matter of this paper. Having by many observations established the pathological fact, that certain lesions hitherto unnoticed by pathologists, are the cause of a very common and troublesome sympathetic affection, I prepared, several months ago, a paper on “Aphonia arising from organic lesions,” which paper I thought to lay before the members of the New York Academy of Medicine.
