The cartilaginous and sub-periosteal cellsgrow with increased rapidity and exhuberance and in an irregularmanner. As a result the bones do not possess solidity and cannotresist the traction of the muscles (Plate XXXVIII) or outsidepressure. The epiphyses may be displaced or bent, especially inthe ribs, less frequently in the long bone. The long bones or thepelvic bones may be bent in a variety of forms (Plates XXXIX,XL). PLATE XXXVIII. KACHITIC BONES. The shadow of the bones is paler than normal. The upper and inner end of both tibias; just below the epiphyseal line,is bent is a slight bending of the shafts of both PLATE XXXVIII. PLATE XXXIX. RACHITIC BOXES. The lowi-T and inner end of both femurs, just above the epiphyseal line,is bent upwards, and the upper and inner end of botli tibias, just abovethe epiphyseal line, is bent downwards. The shafts of both femurs and tibias are slightly bent.
