The entire breast of oneside, and the overlying and adjacent skin, showed puckering and con-traction; the breast of the other side was also invaded, but ulcerationhad not taken place over either gland. Lymphatic involvement maybe long delayed, or, in a few cases, may not occur. In the case justmentioned there was very slight involvement in the last few years patient died at seventy-four, of erysii)elas.
