2287. Thibert's model. Numerous, large, and chronic ulcera- tions of the colon ; chiefly between the folds of the mu- cous membrane. Parietes thickened and indurated. 1849.

Dr. J. Ware.

2288. Ulceration of the large intestine. About midway the mucous membrane was almost entirely destroyed to the extent of 6 in. ; and throughout the whole of this intes- tine there was more or less ulceration ; the base of the largest, and many of the smaller, ulcers being covered with large, grayish granulations.

From a very corpulent woman, set. sixty-eight years, who had had diarrhoea for six weeks and a half, but yielding readily to treatment, so that on two or three occasions her physician, Dr. Salter, discontinued his attendance ; charac- ter of the disease dysenteric at first, with constitutional S3^mptoms. Death at last rather sudden.

There was some valvular disease of the heart, diseased liver, gall-stones, and fibrous tumors of the womb ; there having been some corresponding symptoms, though her general health had been good. (Med. Jour. Vol. LIV. p. 57.) 1856. Dr. C. Ellis.

2290. The lower part of the rectum, most extensively ulcerated ;

and, apparently, rather an acute affection. Superiorly very defined, and burrowing ; the muscular coat below this look- ing as if clearly dissected. For the last inch and a half it is not so much an ulceration as an irregular abscess, bur- rowing between the rectum and the vagina. Above the seat of disease the mucous membrane was quite healthy, excepting a fistulous opening into a portion of the large intestine, that adhered to the rectum, as seen in the prepa- ration. 1861.

2291. Continuous ulceration of the rectum; with chronic ab-
