Not illustrated. 1883 Excerpt: ... destruction of epithelia takes place in the croupous inflammation of mucous membranes (Wagner) and in the croupous inflammation of the kidneys. The production of tubular casts in the latter disease is largely due to a degenerative metamorphosis of the epithelial elements of the uriniferous tubides. Cornil and Ranvier were the first who maintained that in inflammation the endothelia are enlarged, and their nuclei divide and become the source from which pus-corpuscles are formed. The inflammatory changes of the endothelia of the peritoneum (omentum) have been studied most accurately by H. Kundrat. He noticed first a loss of the cement-substance, in place of which scattered globular bodies were seen. Next, enlargement and division of the nucleoli and the nuclei of the endothelia followed. In recent peritonitis he found large multinuclear bodies, which greatly surpassed in size single endothelia, and in purulent peritonitis a marked new formation of inflammatory corpuscles, arising from the endothelia and leading to the formation of puscorpuscles; but, probably, not all of these corpuscles are offspring of endothelia. Kundrat was the first to maintain that from the endothelia of the peritoneum, in chronic, plastic peritonitis, connective tissue arises, which leads to the formation of vegetations; and that this process takes place in two ways: either the endothelia themselves become spindle-shaped, elongated, and transformed into fibrillar, or uniformly nucleated protoplasmic layers, sprung from the endothelia, become directly fibrillated. The inflammatory changes of the endothelia of Mood-vessels were studied by Virchow, Waldeyer, Ranvier, Thiersch, Durante, and others. Swelling of the endothelia, division of their nuclei, and new formation of inflammatory cor...
