General surgical pathology and therapeutics, in fifty-one lectures .. . e, i. e.,the connective tissue is filled with quantities of young, round , then, is the anatomical condition of the cellular tissue under the PHLEGMONOUS INFLAMMATION. 291 oedematous, reddened, painful skin; subsequently the collection ofcells in the inflamed connective tissue and fat becomes more promi-nent. These tissues become tense, and there is stagnation of bloodin the vessels at various points, especially in the capillaries and veins;at some places the circulation ceases entirely. This stagnation of theblood, which at first causes a dark-blue color, and then whiteness fromthe rapid discoloration of the red blood-cells, may extend so far as tocause extensive gangrene of the tissue, a result which we have alreadymentioned. But in most cases this does not occur, but while the cellsincrease, the fibrillar intercellular substance disappears, partly by thedeath of small tags and particles, partly by gradually becoming gelat-inous, and finally changing to fluid pus. Fig. Tissue from-a prepuce infiltrated from inflammation. The filamentary fibrillar formation of the tissuehas entirely disappeared, from the softening influence of the cellular inflammation. The walls ofthe vessels are relaxed and perforated. Magnified about 500. As the inflammation progresses the entire inflamed part is finallychanged to pus, that is, to fluid tissue, consisting of cells with someserous intercellular fluid which is mixed with shreds of dead the process goes on in the subcutaneous cellular tissue, extendingin all directions (most rapidly where the tissue is most vascular andrichest in cells), the purulent destruction of tissue or suppurationwill extend to the cutis from within, perforate it at some point, andthrough this perforation the pus will escape outwardly; when thisoccurs, the process often ceases to extend. The tissue surroundingthe purulent collection is filled with cells and very
