Acute Oophoritis Acute oophoritis is a very frequent accompanying phenomenon ofpuerperal septic infection, which may reach the ovary in two differentways. Either it ascends through the tube and infects the ovary directly fromthe surface, or the infective agents are carried by the lymph-channelsthrough the ligamentum latum, or by thrombosed veins of this area intothe hilus ovarii and after penetrating the entire structure arrive finallyalso upon the surface. Such ovaries are seldom seen except on the dis-secting table. The surface is then covered by a thick, fibrinous, purulentexudate which is often only a part phenomenon of a general peritonitis. i^rm. ^svftp^g;.
