Thepeculiarity of syphilitic necrosis by which it may be distinguishedfrom other forms of necrosis, is the slowness with which it is separatedfrom the living bone, remaining for many years attached to the sur-rounding parts. It is probable that this is due to the want of vas-cularity in the adjoining bone, in which the Haversian canals may bealmost completely filled up with new material which has frequently a gumma in bone results in what is called syphiliticcaries: that is to say, the cavity is rough and irregular, and morenearly resembles ulceration of the soft parts.
