. A treatise on surgical therapeutics of domestic animals. Veterinary surgery; Therapeutics, Surgical. ACTINOMYCOSIS. 201 ). Fig. 48. Actinomycosis of the Lower Maxillary. they may heal, as in tuberculosis, without leaving apparent marks. Ac- tinomycites ordinarily spread slowly, little by little, through the blood ves- sels, and apparently most often through the veins. All tissues and all organs may be attacked, and if, ordinarily, secondary tum- ors develop in the lungs, they are also observed in the liver, kidneys, spleen, serous membranes, lympha- tic glands, and even the encephalon. Locally, the disease pro- gresses both by continuity and contiguity of tissues. For instance, pulmonary actinomycosis ' not only generalizes often in both lungs, but it extends from the visceral layer to the parietal layer of the pleura, obhterates the pleural cavi- ty, and reaches the thoracic walls, where its clinical signs can be easily recogn- ized. The ways by which the actinomycites are intro- duced are numerous. Generally, they penetrate through tegumentary so- lutions of continuity, wounds of the skin, or mucous membranes, but especially by the wounds of the mouth and of the pharynx; at times they enter through natural pass- ages, glandular canals and orifices of the teats; it is the exception for the disease to start in the intestines or the lungs. Pulmonary infection may take place from the dust Wowing out of forage that contains actinomycites,.
