A system of surgery : pathological, diagnostic, therapeutic, and operative . of long standing, or charac-terized by inordinate severity, the pus is occasionally diffused through the propersubstance of the bone, but such an occurrence can only happen in the event ofthe osseous tissue having undergone previous softening, the removal of the earthymatter being followed by the formation of cells or cavities for the lodgment ofthe fluid. If a vertical section is made of a long bone, as the tibia, in an ad-vanced state of inflammation, it will be found that the pus, presenting itself insmall globules, will be scattered both thiough the Haversian canals and the cellsof the areolar substance, no disposition being manifested in the little depots toarrange themselves into abscesses. The intermediate structure is of a reddishcolor, filled with fibrinous exudation, and so soft as to be easily divided with theknife. This punctiform variety of suppuration is seldom so conspicuous as ininflammation of bone complicated with eudosteitis. CHAP. VIII. SUPPURATION AND ABSCESS. 799.
