Coat only fair, body emaciated. Pale muscles, fat scanty. Respiratory tract normal throughout save for slight emphysema. The Pericardium showed no fluid or adhesions. Epicardium glistening and slightly thickened. Heart pale in color. Abdomen shows no fluid or adhesions. Liver slightly decreased in bulk, smooth surface and sharp edges, hard, and rusty brown. Gall-bladder distended, contained green fluid. Spleen firm and normal in size. Capsule smooth, shape normal. Section surface, dark reddish brown, trabeculæ distinctly visible. Kidney, normal in shape, capsule smooth, strips easily, smooth surface, glistening, pinkish gray, consistency hard. Section surface, poor demarkation between cortex and medulla. R. Adrenal, thick orange yellow cortex, solid small brown medulla. Mouth and teeth normal. Stomach distended, contains gas and small quantity yellowish mucus. Mucosa everywhere normal. Postmortem blood examined, stained by Romanowsky, but red cells were disintegrated possibly by laking so examination is not satisfactory. Histological Sections: Heart shows normal epicardium quite free of fat. Myocardium peculiar in that fibres immediately under epicardium show marked broadening in a very narrow rather sharply indicated zone where nuclei are extremely large although not especially chromatic. Transverse markings here easily, although faintly recognized, have very indefinite borders, their longitudinal fibrillæ being ranged in form of a coarse reticulum. This comes about from frequent and extensive lateral anastomoses with fellow fibres giving appearance of a syncytium. In deeper parts, fibres are of more normal size but nuclei are still large and fibres, now cut in transverse section do not appear to anastomose so freely; there appears to be a slight excess of fibrous tissue in their deeper parts. Arteries quite normal. Atrophy with regeneration. Liver.—Capsule and interstitial parts on whole normal. Perilobular fibrous tissues largely missing, but where remaining show an overgrowth occurring in peculiar zonal arrangement and of old adult almost hyaline type. Its fibres are often arranged strikingly in whorls. Bile ducts, arteries and veins quite normal. Parenchymal cells of normal size, finely granular, prominent normal nuclei and contain small quantities of finely granular, golden brown pigment not really as abundant as commonly seen in severe anemias. Blood capillaries narrow, contain small quantities R.B.C., and Kupffer’s cells very frequently contain fine granules like those of parenchymal cells but of a greener tint. In a few isolated areas parenchymal cells distinctly more swollen than others and many show disintegration of nucleus. Hemosiderin pigmentation. Perilobular fibrosis. Slight local cloudy swelling.
