i. 236; Schumer and Gendrin never found
any trace of inflammation in cartilage, i.
236; Brodie and South consider ulcera-
tion of cartilages differs from common
inflammation of the synovial membrane,
and of the spongy ends of bones, i. 236;
Brodie on the degeneration of cartilage
into a fibrous structure, i. 236; this change
Key describes as the third mode of ulcera-
tion of cartilage, i. 236; causes of the
disease, i. 237; Brodie on the period at
which ulceration of the articular cartilages

may occur, i. 237; prognosis always un-
favourable, i. 237; treatment, i. 237. In-
flammation of the joint-ends of bones, i.
237; symptoms, i. 237; Brodie on inflam-
mation of the joint-ends of the bones, its
symptoms and progress, i. 238; Brodie on
the consequence of this inflammation, i.
238; Key on the two forms of disease in
the bone, resulting in absorption of the car-
tilage, i. 238; the chronic form is of a
strumous nature, i. 238; the acute form
differs from the former in the suddenness of
the attack, and in the appearance of the
bone, i. 238; progress of the acute disease,
and appearance of the bone, i. 239; Good-
sir on the scrofulous disease of the cancel-
lated texture of the heads of bone, i. 239;
post-mortem appearances, i. 239; situation
and causes of the disease, i. 239; Brodie
and Key on the period at which it is likely
to occur, i. 239; Brodie observes that
it is likely to occur in several joints at
once, or in succession, i. 239; Brodie and
South's opinion that the occurrence of
scrofulous disease in the joint has sus-
pended the progress of some other and
perhaps more serious disease elsewhere, i.
240; Brodie on the diagnosis between
scrofulous disease of the joint-ends of
bones and ulceration of the articular car-
tilages, i. 240; prognosis and treatment, i.
240; favourable consequences of ulcera-
tion of the cartilages, i. 240; may occur
in one of two ways, i. 240; in the first
the cartilage is replaced by a layer of
ivory-like bone, and the motions of the
joint continue, i. 240; in the second, the
opposed ends of the bones are united,
either by a ligamento-fibrous structure, or
by bone, i. 240; South has seen the con-
necting medium composed partly of liga-
mento-fibrous, and partly of bony matter,
i. 240; South on the ivory-like covering
of the joint-surfaces of bones, i. 240; Key
and Toynbee on the removal of the arti-
cular cartilages in old age i. 241; South
and Brodie on the removal of the articular
cartilages in old age as the result of pre-
vious ulceration, i. 241; John Hunter on
anchylosis, i. 241; anchylosis effected by
the whole substance of the articulation, i.
241; of two kinds, i. 241; Hunter on the
inflammatory and scrofulous diseases of
joints causing anchylosis, i. 242; Hunter on
soft anchylosis from granulations, i. 242;
Hunter on bony anchylosis, i. 242; South's
views on anchylosis differ somewhat from
those of Hunter, i. 242; South on soft
anchylosis from granulations, i. 242; Key
on the formation of a vascular membrane
in joints as a preliminary to anchylosis,
i. 242; South's case of fibrous anchylosis,

of bony and fibrous anchylosis, i. 245;
