Abstract
The man whose history is here detailed came under my observation first in the wards of the Germantown Hospital on Oct. 11, 1905. He had had hemorrhoids, and Dr. C. A. Whiting had operated recently for the removal of them. The house surgeon, Dr. Markle, called my attention to the man because of there being, as he supposed, a growth in the left eye.At the time I made my examination the patient was in what he deemed his usual good health and suffered only from his rectal disease. In the month past he had been annoyed by obscuration of his sight, especially of the left eye, though that eye was neither painful nor tender. I discovered on his body, beneath the skin, over the region of the costocartilaginous junctions on the thorax, several nodular enlargements. These masses were movable and reminded me of the enlargements of the cervical glands
