TERMINATIONS OF INFLAMMATION. 



Inflammation has several terminations, which 

 are designated hy the following terms : — Resolu- 

 tion, Mortification, Suppuration, Ulceration, Hem- 

 orrhage, Efi'usion, Hepatization, and Ossification. 



By Resolution, is meant, comparative restora- 

 tion to health. 



Mortification^ death of the parts involved. 



Suppuration^ a breaking up of tissues, and form- 

 ation of purulent matter, which receives the name 

 of abscess. 



Ulceration, the formation of an ulcer ; a puru- 

 lent solution of continuity of the soft parts. 



Hemorrhage occurs from rupture of blood-ves- 

 sels, wounds, ulcers penetrating the coats of an 

 artery, &c. 



Effusion, watery accumulations ; a serous fluid 

 as in dropsy. 



Hepatization, liver-like structures changed in 

 their character, assuming the appearance of liver. 



Ossifickiiwn, change of soft structures into 

 bony one*. 



Adhesion, two or more separate structures be- 

 coming "ouited. We briefly allude to the subject 

 of inflammation in order to give the general readear 

 some landmarks by which to form tolerably cor- 

 rect conclusions regarding the character of such 

 diseases as they may chance to meet with.
