At dark-nvl ami even hemorrhagic foci are occasionally found scattered throughout the substance of the organ. Infarction is generally con- 8. * •■■•tion, a wedge-shaped mass, having its base directed towards the splenic periphery. So long as the infarcted portion continues firm its tissue preserves its ability to ;rgo a progressive fading, shrinkage and isolation from the surrounding parts bv a dense capsule of connective tissue;but when the infarction is large it is prone to become softened into a pultaceuus grayish-brown mass. If the capsular tissue has alrijadv been formedthe portion witiiin it, as a , alone disorganize.!, but if it is unformed the softening process may extend beyond the infarction and lead toperitonitis.
