The skin and cellular membrane separate first, next the muscles, nerves, and vessels, the latter of which are found partly plugged by coagulated blood, partly closed by active adhesive inflammation, and there- fore no blood escapes—and at last, the tendons and bones also, so that sometimes the whole limb is thrown off spontaneously.’ If the bones, cartilages, and tendons, be only partially destroyed, layers of greater or less thickness separate from their surface, EXFOLIATION, exfolzatio, which retain the form of the part; in the soft formations, however, this occurs very seldom, and is only observed in parts composed of several layers or coats.’ In rare instances also, cancerous tumours, sarcoms,](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b33489166_0001_0072.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
