Summary

between the two diseases : for example similarity in morphology staining reactions and resistance to artificial cultivation of the organisms concerned ; the relatively long incubation period and the almost strict specificity of the diseases; and finally the chronic and non-fatal nature of the infections both in man and in the rat. [...] (b) Sections of skin excised at varying intervals from twenty-toie hours to eight days after subcutaneous inoculation reveal the following characters in varying degree :- There is infiltration of cells in the deeper layers of the corium and in the superficial zone of the subcutaneous tissue. [...] In parts of the section in which the infection is most intense and in which also the accumulation of lepra cells ' is at a maximum the cell outlines are quite obliterated and the cells appear to be piled together. [...] It is more probable that there has been a proliferation on the part of the cells in the connective tissue sheaths of the muscle and that this proliferation has led to fragmentation and ultimately to atrophy of the muscle fibres. [...] Both these processes on the other hand occur in certain types of human leprosy and our clinical and histological studies of this disease have brought us to the conclusion that they are present in cases in which there is a maximum effort on the part of the tissues of the skin (and nerves) to restrict the spread of the disease.
