The affection begins with the appearance of nodules vary- ing in size from a grain of sand to a millet seed. They are more or less translucent, of a roundish or oval shape, and of a dirty gray or grayish-red color.

Veterinary medicine; Communicable diseases in animals. 114 GLANDERS In most nodular glanders, which is the common form, the lesions are frequently situated on the upper portion of the nasal septum and in the cavities of the turbinated bones. The affection begins with the appearance of nodules vary- ing in size from a grain of sand to a millet seed. They are more or less translucent, of a roundish or oval shape, and of a dirty gray or grayish-red color. The nod- ules, which may attain to the maximum size of a pea, project somewhat above the surface of the mucous membrane. They are surrounded by a reddish ring. Some of them are isolated and others are arranged in groups. ^Microscopically they consist of a large number of lymphoid cells, which disintegrate in the centre of the nodule. In consequence of the central fatty and purulent degeneration, the nodules become yellowish in color, discharge and form ulcers. These ulcers are sometimes superficial, sometimes deep, lenticular or crateriform, surrounded by a hard, indurated edge, and frequently becoming confluent, with irregularly ser- rated and eroded edges. They are sometimes covered with a brownish crust. The ulcers may increase in area or in depth and may even involve the underlying cartilage or bone, causing per- foration of the septum nasi, and distensions of the maxillary or exostoses on the turbinated bones. The shallow lenticular ulcers may heal without leaving any visible. Fig. 10.
