Although very extensible, the synovial of the shoulder-joint does not protrude externally when it is dropsical. This condition is accused by lameness and stiffness of' the ex- tremity, which is carried forward "with difficulty; in some cases, the point of the shoulder is deformed by a diffuse swelling. The sheath of the coraco-radialis, which, in solipeds, is independent of the scapulo-humeral synovial, may be the seat of a synovitis, sometimes mistaken for the lesions of the articulation. Lines or deep points firing is the only beneficial treatment. " In tetradactyles, dropsy of the articular capsula may be manifested by a double soft tumor, which appears on both sides of the coraco-radialis mus- cle, that is, at the antero-inferior part of the point of the shoulder. The reason is that the ca,psula extends downwards and forwards, to line the internal face of the muscle in question, and that it is not longer sufficiently pro- tected on the sides of this muscle, to be prevented from distending on this point when it becomes the seat of a dropsy " (L. Lafosse). Cauterization is also the choice treatment. tl.—Elbow Joint. In his Traitt de Pathologie, Lafosse wrongly states that this joint is never the seat of hydarthrosis. We have seen two dases of it at the Alfort clinics ; many practitioners have related examples of it. Here is the resumd of one of our observations : Five-year-old horse, working for six months.
