![612. Two portions of cranium which have been removed by the trephine. Ulce- ration had taken place both on the external and internal surfaces. 613. A portion of rib, with its cartilage, which is much thickened; from the same individual from whom the preparation No. 610 was taken. 614. Another portion of the same rib, showing similar circumstances. 615. A transverse section of a sternum affected by scrofula. 616. Another portion of the same sternum. 617. A vertebra, in which scrofulous ulceration had begun. 618. A portion of the os ilium affected with scrofula. 619. A longitudinal section of a scrofulous knee. 620. The lower half of a tibia and fibula. The tibia is affected with scrofula, and the greater part of its bony structure is absorbed. 2. In Glandular Parts. 621. Minute scrofulous tumours on the stomach and intestines of a sparrow. 622. Scrofulous glands from a large white monkey. 623. The thyroid gland in situ, much enlarged. [Bronchocele.] 624. A portion of lung, tfie whole substance of which was studded with small tubercles. 625. Part of a liver, the whole of which was occupied by a congeries of encysted tumours filled with solid matter. 626. An adjoining portion of the same liver. 627- A portion of the liver, omentum, mesenteric glands, and a section of a testicle; to show scrofulous affections of those parts, from the same subject. 628. A section of a kidney, to show the mammae deprived of their natural struc- ture by disease. [It is apparently caused by scrofulous ulceration in the infundibula and pelvis.] 629. The kidneys of a scrofulous child. One retains its usual form and size, but a spherical tumour is seen projecting from its side. The other is increased to very unusual dimensions, and so altered in form as to be with difficulty recognized as a kidney. A section has been made to show the structure of the mass, which in appearance is very analogous to scirrhus. h 2](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b2200662x_0001_0063.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
