Infective Granulomata and New-formations.—Tuberculosis of thelarynx and trachea, which usually occurs in the course of pulmonarytuberculosis in consequence of penetration of tubercle bacilli intothe mucous membrane from the sputum, is localised most frequentlyon the processus vocales and vocal chords in the larynx, and in thetrachea on the posterior wall in the neighbourhood of the ducts ofmucous glands.
