Fig. 5139.—Facial HemDopt^rtrupby in a Utter Sabrazfes the skin is harsh and i-ougli, while the .sebaceous glandsare much and clogged with an abnormallythickened secretion of gummy consistence. The hair isoften thick and coarse. In the case reported by Danathe bones were alone involved in the process; the softtissues were not hypertrophied. The external ear maytake part in the enlargement. Here either the cartilagealone or all the tissues may be involved. The hypertro-phy may extend into the mouth implicating the gums,soft palate, and jaw. The hypertrophy may be limitedto a part of the face on one side, or may extend some-what across the median line. But little is known of causes underlying the the twenty-three cases collected by Sabraz^s and Ca-bannes eighteen were congenital. In Schicks case thehypertrophy commenced in the second year with noknown cause. In Bergers case there was an obstinateantecedent neuralgia of the fifth nerve.
