On the other hand, the vascular loopsof the glomerulus may be occluded by proliferation or desquamationof the endothelial cells or by the accumulation of leucocytes, butalso by hyaline thrombi and hyaline swelling of the vessel-walls,and may then likewise suffer obliteration (p. 293). Very often changes in the urinary tubules and interstitial connectivetissue are added to the glomerular affection. In the former, andespecially the convoluted tubules, we may find cloudy swelling, fattydegeneration (Fig. 145), necrosis, and desquamation, but sometimes. Fig. 148. — in Scarlatina, x 500.

The changes in the interstitial tissue consist in a thickening of theinterstitial spaces between the tubules from serous absorption, andin small-celled infiltrations which occur especially in the cortexcorticis in the neighbourhood of the stellate and interlobular veins,and around the glomeruli. When the cellular infiltrations areparticularly strongly developed the
