Microscopic Examination.—Section (a).—The serosa and mus-cularis show marked inflammatory changes from tubercular infec-tion. The classical picture of tubercles of various ages accompaniedby giant cells and followed by local fibrous change as a tracery ofthe healed tubercles and the diffuse mononuclear infiltration, makevery complete evidence of this process.
