(a) The whole shaft of femur from neckto condyles was involved in the pathologi-cal process. (b) There was enlargement of the bonewith rarefaction and thinning of outer com-pact bone. (c) The rarefaction was not uniform;some areas more marked than others. (d) Contour of bone was irregular on allsurfaces. (e) At the middle of bone an area aboutthree inches long and involving one-thirdcircumference was shown where bone hadbeen removed by operation.
