The connective-tissue covering of the kidney, including the fat layerand the peritoneum in front, reacts in various ways to inflammations ofthe kidney proper. The peritoneum and the capsula propria are neverthe seat of primary disease or of suppuration; but in a way, and always PLATE II. •X A /^^i.

Teclinically, a differentiation of the variousconditions should demand an indicative nomenclature. No little confu-sion has resulted from efforts in this direction. Rayer reserved the termperinephritis for inflammations of the fat capsule. French, English,and American writers have continued the use of this term in the samesense. Kiister applied the name to inflammations in front of the kidneyand reserved the term paranephritis for the suppurative processes inthe retro renal fat. Israel would designate the thickenings of the fibrouscapsule as perinephric, and inflammations within the fat capsule as epi-nephric. Unfortmiately for this nomenclature there is often shown a suc-cessive inv
