First observed inOctober, 1921. Two small lesions,one in the upper shaft of the femur andone in the shaft of the tibia. Etiologicalfactor not discovered after completeexamination. This patient () a white maleaged sixty-seven, was referred to me byE. F. Root of Salt Lake City. Fig. 1 1,an x-ray taken October 12, 1921,. Figure XV.âCase VII.âPathol. Multiple infectious ossifyingperiostitis of both bones of both legsand pelvis, most marked on the righttibia. 314 INFECTIOUS OSSIFYING PERIOSTITISâBLOODGOOD shows the small lesion on the outer sideof the shaft of the femur below thetrochanter. There is periosteal boneformation with some cortical destruc-tion and not much change in the mar-row cavity. In this area, although therewas pain and tenderness, little or noth-ing could be made out on 12, an x-ray taken on the samedate, shows a small lesion in the middlethird of the shaft of the tibia on thefibula side. Here also there is someperiosteal bone formation and corticaldestruction, but the marrow shadow isnormal. I have never observed primary peri-osteal sarcoma to occur as a multiplelesion, nor have I ever observed metas-tatic bone tumors to appear as periosteallesions. Therefore, the x-rays in thiscase suggested that the lesion was ofan inflammatory type,
