Medical and surgical reports . Fig. 15. Showing infiltration of fibrous tissue between the smoothmuscle fibres of enlarged Fig. 10. Showing diliusc small round-cxU iiililtration and alsoarterio-sclerosis in a small vessel. DR. f HANnriN. AM. ENC. CO., HOSTON. ENLARGED PROSTATE. 49 practically every field, may be found the remains of at leastone or more glands. Such glands, of course, are rarely seenin uterine fibro-myomata. In those prostatic tumors, which most resemble fibro-myomata (Fig. 15), careful study shows that the distributionof muscle bundles is brought about not by a new growthof them, but rather by subdivision and separation of oldbundles due to the ingrowth and expansion of new connectivetissue. It has been already shown, also, that the knottyform, where small round bodies resembling small fibroidsshell out, is always glandular in its origin. Jones (39, ) has never seen pure myoma of the prostate ; Virchow(74) says it is very rare, and with this Motz (1, p. 254)agrees. A recent study (3) of one hundred prostates frommen dead of prostatism showed fourteen cases said to beadeno-carcinoma.
