But the termmorbus coxarius is, in strict accuracy, limited to the chronic and gradu-ally nascent affection, which commences in the hard textures. The disease is conveniently divided into two stages. The first, theperiod which is occupied in the incipient change of structure ; withoutsuch loss of substance as to cause change of form, and with the synovialcapsule yet entire ; denoted by apparent elongation of the limb. The 636 MORBUS COXARIUS. second, corresponding to loss of substance, change of form, and destruc-tion of the joint; indicated by the limbs shortening and distortion. Fig. 252. Fig.
