The gland is enveloped in a dense un- yielding capsule, which determines the course of an abscess, and also explains the great pain which is present in acute inflammation. The abscess most frequently bursts into the urethra, the direc- tion in which there is least resistance, but may occasionally burst into the rectum, or more rarely in the perineum.
