The area usually affected in such cases lay outsideand behind the ureteric orifices and there might be a solitaryarea of trabeculation here while the rest of the bladder sur-face was unchanged. A solitary muscle band sometimes stoodup strongly for a considerable distance. Such fine distinctions,while they do not invariably hold good, may certainly berecognized in the majority of cases. Bohme adopts a theory which V. Frankl-Hochwart ^advanced to explain difficult micturition and retention in dis-ease of the spinal cord, namely, that the sphincter is unableto relax, and he looks upon the trabeculation in cases of tabesas due to this cause acting as an obstr
