American practice of surgery : a complete system of the science and art of surgery . Fig. 239.—Hereditary Syphilitic Disease. Late manifestations. form. Ep-iphyses little affected. Confluent areas of porosity in diaphyses of both tibiae. Increase in corticalbone, and areas of bone deposit beneath the periosteum in diaphysis of femur on the right side. (Orig-inal.) Gout. True gout seems to be in a class by itself. The tophi are scarcely distin-guishable in the negative, but the loss of substance of the shafts of the bones,as well as the involvement of the joint surfaces, is, in the advanced stages,characteristic (Fig. 238). In interpreting the plates of any of these chronic articular diseases, thestage of the process must be considered if confusion is to be avoided. Thus, THE INTERPRETATION OF RADIOGRAPHS. 661. Fig. 240.—Hereditary Syphilitic Disease. Diffuse cortical tliiclcening of mid-tibial and lower fibularshaft. New bone deposit beneatli the periosteum giving rise to .sabre-shaped bone. Tendency alongtibial crest to the formation of so-called bone-blisters. (Original.)
