Mayor 2 found, in the peritoneal covering of the uterus afterdelivery, a number of folds in the membrane ; at the bottom ofthese folds the endothelial cells seemed to be transformed into aspherical shape. Kilian 3 found the cells in this region infil-trated with fat-globules. Bernstein,4 in a study of involution inthe rabbits uterus, paid especial attention to the behavior of theconnective tissue. lie found that the reduction of this tissue inthe puerperal uterus was effected by a fatty degeneration of theconnective-tissue cells, and by a drying out, as it were, of theconnective-tissue fibers ; these, deprived of the excessive blood-.
