TheFrench authorities I have so often quoted say of these masses :They have the aspect of carcinomatous fungosities, and theyappear also to have their malignity. Boettcher and Waldeyer,besides other authorities, fully support my conclusions. In soine tumors we find velvety-looking tufts hanging fromthe walls into the interior: and these are found, on examination,to consist of a basis of nucleated fibrous tissue—in fact, ovarianstroma—lined on each side of their many branches by regular 10.

As these structures divide and redivide into branches, theyvery much resemble trees, and therefore have had conferredupon them, among other names, that of intracystic dendriticgrowth. If a cyst in which they exist be injected and. the sec-tions stained, they will be found to consist merely of the remainsof follicles which have burst in their efforts to become cystic,the skeleton branches retaining the epithelium of the cysts whichformerly were on each side of it. By the growth of subsequentcysts these papillary remains are often forced into irregular andvery complex folds, the apparent complexity of which may begreatl}^ increased by the accidents of the section.
