Since ascending invasions along the urethro-vas deferens canal naturally tend to become deflected into the subsidiary sex glands, infections of these structures sometimes occur without involvement of the testicles or epididymes. Infec- tions of the subsidiary glands probably as a rule have a greater peril for genital health than infections of the epidid- ymis or testicle, because v^^hen the latter are involved the very small caliber of the tubules leads to early atresia with incarceration of the infection, while the structure of the subsidiary glands is such that infected secretions may read- ily escape into the urethra and be ejaculated with the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Williams, Walter Long, 1856-1945; Williams, Walter Wilkinson, 1892- joint author.
