At other times the glands become cysticand form little projections on the bottom of the ulcerated [eroded]surface, which thus has the so-called follicular appearance (moreevident in section than to direct inspection31) (Fig. 105, c). Thesecysts may form a semi-detached mass on the surface of the part, asmucous polypi (Fig. 110). They are small, of a red color, semi-trans-. Fig. 110.—Mucous Polypi from the Interior of the Cervix,and upon the Surface, fromFollicular Hypertrophy parent or purplish, hanging by pedicles more or less free in the cav-ity, and projecting from the external os; in general resembling themucous polypi of the nose, only far more vascular. (It is a mistaketo describe mucous polypi of the uterus in a separate chapter, sincepathologically, clinically, and therapeutically, they belong to hem-orrhagic ) When this cystic transformation of the glandstakes place throughout the cervix, it can produce, by penetratingand dilating its substance, an elongation by follicular hypertrophy(Fig. 109, a). Finally, the glandular vegetation and the cystic for-mation may produce within the cavity of a partly-opened cervix smallvesicular projections whijh I compare to an almond (Fig. 109, b).
