In thesimplest cases the intermediate haematoma undergoesprogressive retraction, until operation shows only asmall fibrous canal, about half an inch in length, uniting 18 WOUNDS OF THE VESSELS the two vessels (fig. 15). In other cases the vesselsare united by a true sac, the wall of which becomesgradually isolated and differentiated until it can beremoved in its entirety (fig. 16). Finally the conditionsare very much complicated by dilatation of the centralend of the vei
