In many places the fibres of connective tissue are separated and the spaces areoccupied by escaped red blood cells and a serous fluid.

Areas adjacent to this present no musclefibres in recognizable condition, the site of the completely destroyed fibre being represented by a groupof sarcolemma nuclei.

Operative interference is the only proper therapeutic procedure. Fibroma Molluscum.—This fibrous growth of the skin may appear as anisolated tumor, or a number of such growths may develop usually appear as soft pendulous masses, at times distinctly pedunculated;they are painless and they are also easily separable from all surrounding they grow to a large size. They are distinguished from lipomataby their smooth surface and by the fact that they are rarely lobulated. Usuallythey are well supplied w
