    €C [ 3° ] There are likewife two other cafes which the fame author calls tranjlated Gout; the one of which is “ an affedtion of the neck of the bladder, producing pain, ftrangu- ary, and a catarrhus veficae, or a mucous “ difcharge from the bladder.—The other “ is an affedtion of the inteftinum redlum. “ fometimes of pain alone, fometimes of ** hasmorrhoidal fymptoms.—Thefe mor- bid affedtions fometimes alternate, with “ inflammation of'the joints. But whe- “ ther to refer thofe affedtions to the retro- “ cedent or the mifplaced Gout, Dr. Cullen “ fays, he will not prefume to determine, * Surely there can be no prefumption in the cafe, and if there was any utility, the matter would be eafily fettled.—When the inflam- mation has firft attacked another part, and afterwards removes to the neck of the blad- der or redlum, there can be no doubt of its being a retrocedent Gout, and when it pri- marily attacks thefe parts, it is the true ato- nic ■ Gout, which is fynonimous with the mifplaced.
