. Tumours, innocent and malignant; their clinical characters and appropriate treatment. e effused blood becomes surrounded by alowly organized capsule, and this is occasionally so completeas to appear like an ovoid bulb or amphora containing blood,and its neck embracing the coelomic ostium of the tube(Fig. 329). This condition, and the mode of formation of the cap-sules, have been particularly studied by Saenger, Taylor,and Handley. The last observer has proved that capsules 628 PSEUDO-CYSTS of this kind are also formed occasionally in connexionwith tubal pregnancy terminating by rupture. Capsules ofthis nature occasionally form around sterile inflammatoryeffusions (Fig. 330). It would appear that the conditions necessary to theproduction of these capsules are these: the intruded product?—whether a solid body, an infusion of blood, or coagulableinflammatory fluid—should be free from pathogenic organ-isms, and, in the case of fluid, be slowly effused. In this way imperfect capsules are formed on the walls ofovarian cysts, especially dermoids, and there can be little. Fie 330.—Fallopian tube and ovary ; the ccelomic ostium and fimbriee are enclosedin a capsule of new formation. From a case of acute salpingitis. doubt that many of the reported cases in which these cystsare stated to have burrowed between the layers of the broadligaments rest on erroneous observation, and that the supposedinvestment by the mesometrium was in reality a capsule ofnew formation. The most perfect capsules formed in this Avay are met witharound echinococcus cysts in the belly, especially those whichproject from the under-surface of the liver, or grow in themeshes of the omentum, and on occasions they may be verythick. This explains how echinococcus colonies in the bellyare provided with thick spurious capsules, whereas thosegrowing in the cerebrum have none.
