2832. Cast of a very large and purely encephaloid breast, about 6 in. by 3 in. in diameter.

The patient was a single, middle-aged, healthy-looking Irishwoman, and the duration of the disease was two years. The structure was moderately firm, whitish, and semitranslucent ; section flat ; some xanthoid ; no striae, fibres, nor milk-tubes. About four years afterward the mass was again removed by Dr. Gay, and was then about two-thirds as large as before. 1861.

2837. A perfectly defined, rounded abscess, of the size of a nutmeg, and situated in a thick, dense, fibrous tissue, that closely invests the testicle, and is from in. to 1 in. in thickness. It is thickly lined with recent lymph, and was filled, when recent, with thick, greenish pus. The testicle is healtlry.

The patient was twenty-one years of age, and had suf- fered greatly from pain, and a sense of weight for about two years. About a pint of serum was drawn off; and a few weeks afterward, upon the presumption that the testicle was diseased, the organ was removed. Sent to- Dr. S. from the country. 1854.
