Fig. 158.—Drawing from a microscopic preparation showing a fluke in the tissue of the liver, a, Necrotic Hver tissue ; h, atrophic liver cells ; c, spines on the fluke, showing the outline of the body. (After Schaper, 1890, PL III., Fig. 5.) as above sketched, and a certain number of deaths may occur. Gerlach has mentioned the possibility of death by cerebral apoplexy, in conse- quence of the young distomata penetrating to the brain. Moussu has certainly never seen such a complication, but has seen death from hepatitis, perihepatitis, and secondary pericarditis in animals gravely infested. T

The young embryos, whether they penetrate only by the bile ducts, as has been stated, or are carried to the liver by the blood stream, often excavate canals in the substance of the gland before establishing themselves in the bile ducts. They make their way as far as Glisson's capsule, and may even penetrate it; and as they carry with them innumer- able intestinal germs, when they arrive via the bile ducts, they set up
