The physiology of the red and white blood-corpuscles is sufficientlyset forth in the Text-books of that Pathologically, the corpuscles exhibit changes as to quantity andcharacter which are of the utmost importance in diagnosis. Thesechanges seldom occur separately, but are usually combined—althoughalterations of the structure of the corpuscles may be more pronouncedin some cases, of their number in others. We shall consider :— i. The diminution in the number of the cellular elements of theblood (oligocythemia). 2. The increase in the number of the cellular constituents.
