Subsequently, after tliey become adliei'ent to the skin, a small round opening forms and diseliarges a viscous, yellowisli-gray, occasionally reddish pus. By progres- •ion of the destructive process in the borders, rather deep crateriform ulcers form, with grayish-red, easily bleeding l)orders that show torpid granulations and similar but more lardaceous bases and discolored, purulent secretion (see Plate V). They frequently continue to progress in spite of careful treatment, but occnsionally local healing occurs, often with scar form ;d ion. In the region of the nodes and ulcers the cen- tripetal Ijmiph vessels fin- ally become enlarged and are then palpable through the skin as slightly paiij- ful or completely insensi- tive tense strands which unite the nodes with tlie ulcers and with the neigli- boring enlarged lymph glands (rosary). Fresh nodes develop in the course of these strands and subsequentlv also ul- cerate (Fig. 119). In the meantime the edematous infiltration of the surrounding subcu- taneous connective tissue progresses and spreads over a large area so that finally conspicuous, doughy, painless swellings appear on the lower abdomen, the thorax or on one or more of the extremities. In some instances one or more of the legs become enlarged to such an extent that they resemble logs that are sharply set off at the hoofs (Elephantiasis malleosa), while nodes and ulcers may occur here and there in the tense skin. Enlargements of this character interfere seriously with tjie movements of the limbs, and some- times large nodes, but especially enlarged lymph glands, may be the cause of locomotor distui'bances by exerting pressure on neighboring nerve trunks ; as a rule, however, these disturbances are not serious on account of the painlessness of the Fiji. 118.
