(After Pierre Marie and Foix.) At the lower part of the pseudo-neuroma there is a partial absence of myelin,but the arrangement of the fibres is preserved. LESIONS OF INJURED NERVES 239 5. Lateral pseudo-neu-roma with or without alateral notch. 6. Partial neuroma (in-tra- or juxta-nervous). 7. Simple nerve indura-tion. 1. Complete Section.—Assoon as the surgeon findsthe nerve-trunk in theoperation wound eitherabove or below the prob-able seat of the lesion,according to the course ofthe projectile, he will see byfollowing it up that in themajority of cases wherecomplete section has oc-curred it plunges sud-denly and at an angleinto the wound (PierreMarie and Foix). An ap-pearance such as this isstrongly in favour of com-plete nerve division. Infact, by following andfreeing the nerve it will befound to be severed, withboth ends separated, swollen,and more or less adherentto the surrounding fibro-sclerotic tissue (fi
