That this is the correct explanation of such cases, is confirmed by the fact that similar remains have been found within the bodies of males. _Multilocular cysts_ disclose, instead of a single cavity, numerous chambers, containing secondary, and even tertiary cystic growths, either sessile or pedunculated, and with varying contents. By the complicated form, we understand that in which, to some other diseased state of the organ—as hypertrophy, fibrous tumors, or carcinomatous growths—the cyst formation is superadded. _Fibrous growths._ These are developed in the tissue of the ovary, and present a globular form, with well defined outline. They may attain an enormous size; the largest one on record, occurred in the practice of Dr. Simpson, and weighed fifty-six pounds. We occasionally meet with proofs of a tendency to so-called ossification, in the presence of calcareous matter, into which a portion of the tissue has been converted. _Malignant disease_ of the ovary, is by no means a rare affection. It is generally limited to one side, and appears as scirrhus, encephaloid, hæmatoid, melanotic, or alveolar cancer, either as an isolated growth, or in the infiltrated form, and generally as an addition to some other morbid formation. It runs a rapid course, although it has been met with even before puberty; forty-one years was the average age at death according to the statistics collected by Dr. Walshe. _Cartilaginous tumors_ are extremely rare in the ovaries. _Tubercles_ are occasionally found as small, cheesy deposits. 2. The Fallopian Tubes. =Congenital Anomalies.= One or both of the tubes may be imperfectly developed, in connection with an unsymmetrical development or total absence of the uterus. The tubes may be occluded by the closure of one or both ends, and the point of insertion into the uterus may be abnormal. =Inflammation.= Catarrhal inflammation is of not unfrequent occurrence, and may lead to partial or total, temporary or permanent closure of the channel of the tubes. Thus the fimbriated extremities may become agglutinated to the ovaries, the broad ligament, or the uterus itself; or obliteration may occur at one or more points within the passage. The continued accumulation of the secretion of the mucous membrane will cause distension, either simulating a cyst formation, or presenting the appearance of several saccular dilatations. The dilatations, containing mucus matter of a more or less purulent character, or fluid of an heterogeneous constitution, are rarely of large size, although an instance is on record in which the distension amounted to five inches in diameter. The morbid contents may be poured into the uterus, or in less favorable cases the sac is ruptured, and the contents are effused into the abdominal cavity. Morbid Growths. _Cysts_ of small size frequently affect the fimbriated extremities of the tubes.
