A treatise on Bright's disease and diabetes, with especial reference to pathology and therapeuticsIncluding a section on retinitis in Bright's disease . ous with the epithelial lining of the capsule, as is wellshown in Fig. 15. According to Axel Key the capillary bloodvessels of thelobules of the glomerules are held together by a homogeneousconnective tissue containing flattened stellate and nucleatedconnective tissue corpuscles. But Langhans was unable toconvince himself of the presence of connective tissue, exceptthe adventitia of the vas aiferens, which extends only untilthe vessel begins to break up into capillaries. The capillaries of the glomerule or Malpighian tuft, like allcapillaries, are provided with nuclei, which in common with 32 BRIGHT S DISEASE. all tlie cellular elements named are subject to pathologicalchange. There are no Malpighian corpuscles in that part of the corteximmediately bordering the capsule, nor in that bordering theboundary layers, that is, in the most external and most internalportions. See a and a, Fig. 4. II. The Bloodvessels of the renal artery, before it enters the substance of the organ,. Distribution of the larger bloodvessels of the kidney. Engrared from a photographof an injected and macerated preparation by Hyrll iu the Museum of the College , Philadelphia. A, the artery. B, B, B, B correspond to the lobardivisions of the kidney, to each one of which the branches of an artery are distributed,which again unite to form the area of the coriex. The open spaces correspond to theareas of the straight tubules or pyramids, which containing comparatively inw blood-vessels were washed away iu the maceration. The vertical interlobular arteries alludedto in the text are not seen, because the kidney is shown entire and not in hemi-section. breaks up into two or three branches, which penetrate the cap-sule at the border of the pelvis of the kidney, and, after fur-ther rapid subdivision, radiate directly to
