(After Leuckart.) the body, thus setting up the second phase of the disease, known as muscular trichinosis. Trichinosis as a disease has long been recognised. Peacock in 1828 and J. Hilton in 1832 mentioned the existence of the cysts of trichinae; Owen in 1H35 gave the name of Tridiina spiralis to the parasites con- tained in the cysts. Trichinosis being common in Germany at that time, A'irchow and Leuckart undertook its investigation, but mistook other nematodes of the intestine for the Trichina spiralis. In 1847 Leydy recognised that trichinosis occurred in American pigs. In 1860 Zenker found muscular and intestinal trichinosis on post- mortem examination of a girl who had been suspected of suffering from tyi)hoid fever, and a carefully conducted inquiry revealed the fact that.
