190 MALL. [VoL. XIX. 
Fic. 124f.—Section through the hand showing well-formed bone and cellu- 
lar infiltration of the surrounding structure. Enlarged 17 times. 
abscesses. The walls of the chorion are considerably thick- 
ened immediately below the placenta and are fibrous in struc- 
ture. Between the villi at their bases there is a quantity of 
fresh blood, and between their distal ends there is a great 
quantity of syncytium, which does not stain well and appears 
to be necrotic. Masses of fine granules are seen which stain 
intensely with hematoxylin, and on account of their uniform 
size they are probably bacteria. 
Fic. 124g.—Section through the foot with the phalanges numbered. En- 
larged 17 diameters.
