One may speak of an aneurism,for instance, without risk of being misunderstood, and the applicationof the term atheroma to such patches and ulcers as have been men-tioned receives universal acceptation. The difficulty of finding namesby which satisfactorily to designate particular arterial lesions afterthey have been studied and their nature ascertained is plainly reflectedin standard pathological text-books. Ziegler,* for instance, gives aclear and practical description of the pathological anatomy of arte-ries, but after reading it the impression is left upon the mind thatthe naming of the different lesions is very inadequate.
