![534. The corresponding section of the same kidney. [The transparent bodies observable in some of the cells are not hydatids, but balls of glass intro- duced to prevent the kidney from floating.] 535. Sections of a kidney whose central part is entirely occupied by cysts or hydatids. [The substance of the kidney is very uniformly reduced to about two lines in thickness; but its external surface retains so com- pletely its natural appearance, as to afford no indication whatever of the O disease existing within it.] 536. Hydatids, or rather cysts, formed on, and pressing upon the testicle. 537- A diseased testicle, with cysts or hydatids arising from it, and attached by slender pedicles. 538. Section of a testicle much enlarged, and its whole substance pervaded by small cysts or hydatids. 539. Another section of the same testicle. 540. A cyst or hydatid attached to the posterior external surface of the cervix uteri. 541. A small encysted tumour from the human ovarium. Its external coat is injected. 542. A small cyst, united by a slender pedicle to the Fallopian tube. 543. A very small cyst attached by a pedicle to the Fallopian tube near its fim- briated extremity. There is also a small spherical body on the surface of the ovarium. 544. Two hydatids, or cysts, containing fluid, in the membrane between the ovarium and the Fallopian tube. 545. An ovarium converted into a congeries of cysts; the largest of which is about the size of a hen’s egg. 546. An encysted tumour of the human Fallopian tube. [The cyst has a very distinct lining, which bears a strong resemblance to a true hydatid. The cyst is rather on, than of the tube, appearing as if formed around and compressing it.] 547- A human ovarium increased to an extraordinary size by a congeries of cysts. Some of these are laid open, to expose their contents. 548. A congeries of cysts containing hydatids, enveloping the uterus of a mau- cauco.](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b2200662x_0001_0057.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
