communicating with each other, nor with any of the organs. The right testis was in the scrotum, and the left in the ab- domen ; and a vas deferens joined that of the left, about midway, coming from what looked like, but was found mi- croscopically not to be, a third testis. Kidneys about as large as usual, but the bladder was exceedingly small, and the urethra was scarcely pervious.
Dr. James W. Robbins, of Uxbridge. The above case was published in the Med. Jour. (Vol. LIX. p. 355), with nine others, more or less similar to it, that have occurred here, and six others that I have seen in the museums of Europe ; and to these may now be added the following case.
854. A second case. The sac was nearly, or quite as large as two fists, consisted of integument, lined by a serous mem- brane, and contained x or xii of serum ; opening from spinal canal quite marked. The two elbows, and the or- gans of the abdomen presented ; the child being most remarkably doubled up.
The abdominal parietes were entirely wanting. The bladder was formed in two cavities, that communicated freely near the neck ; and one of them communicated almost throughout with the rectum ; this last opening near the line of the integument. Right kidney in a state of hydronephrosis, and very large, as well as the ureter, which ended in a cul-de-sac, near the bladder. Left kidney, and renal capsules normal. Upon each side, and at some dis- tance apart, was one-half of a uterus, with its tube, and one-half of a vagina, perfectly symmetrical ; cut open upon one side, and shows the os tincse. Ovaries not found ; trace of external labia ; pubic bones widely separ- ated, as in extroversion of the bladder. Thoracic organs well. The preparation shows the sac, and the termination of the spinal marrow. 1854. Dr. R. M. Hodges.
