![fills the sac, but protrudes into the cavity of the bladder, where it might have been readily felt, but could not possibly have been extracted.] 962. A bladder with a small sac on its posterior part, in which a calculus was contained. 963. A bladder with the prostate gland somewhat enlarged. Two sacculi are formed at the posterior part of the bladder by the protrusion of the in- ternal membrane between the muscular fibres; and each communicates by a circular aperture with its cavity. 964. A very remarkable example of sacculated bladder. [It is remarkable on account of the healthy structure of the coats of the bladder and of the urethra, and the unusual regularity of the cells. These are five in number, of a spherical form, and communicate with the bladder by five distinct cir- cular apertures, disposed transversely along the posterior and inferior part of the viscus. The two lateral sacculi are each of the size of a large orange, the three intermediate ones about two-thirds smaller. Their struc- ture appears to be the mucous membrane of the bladder, and condensed cel- lular membrane externally. The prostate gland is sacculated on one side, but otherwise healthy, so as to present no impediment to the flow of urine ; and the urethra, which is laid open, does not appear to have been the seat of stricture, or of any other disease that could have contributed to produce so extraordinary a condition of parts.] Series XXXVI. Diseases of the Uterus. 1. Of the Ovarium and Fallopian Tube. 965. A human ovarium laid open. It is but little increased in size, and has nu- merous small cysts or hydatids throughout its substance, particularly towards its circumference. 966. An uterus with a portion of a very large tumour, [apparently of a scrofu- lous nature] formed in the right ovarium. The left ovarium is of the ordinary dimensions, but is unusually lobulated. 967- A section of an uterus with a tumour in its fundus. Inflammation in the broad ligament has occasioned an adhesion of the fimbriated extremity](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b2200662x_0001_0097.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
