URINARY ORGANS

Kidneys and Bladder.
Acute nephritis; during life the urine contained blood and albumen; in one case there were fibrinous casts and epithelia, and in the other cellular elements only. The microscopical examination of the kidneys after death afforded evidence of a recent inflammatory process (granular opacity and fatty degeneration of the epithelial elements, recent cleaving of the nuclei of the interstitial tissue, particularly along the course of the vessels). Both cases were of long duration, and it was observed that the quantity of albumen in the urine diminished from day to day, 96.
After the beginning of the third week the urinary symptoms commenced; the patient suffered from pain behind the symphysis, frequent desire to urinate, and cutting pains when urinating; the catheter met with an obstruction in the region of the neck of the bladder, which, on examination through the rectum, was found to be a swollen and extremely sensitive prostate, 105.

At the end of ten days the density of the urine had sunk to 1026, and 1000 grains of it yielded only 2.6 grains of alkaline sulphate, 71. [660.]
Urine red, acid; specific gravity 1020, containing albumen and sulphur; on standing, a large number of pale or yellowish granular cylinders, 114.
Urine red and fiery, 47.
Urine light brown, intensely acid, the highest specific gravity 1038, albuminous, containing free Sulphuric acid. On the second day the specific gravity fell, the amount of sulphates became less, the albumen almost entirely disappeared. On the ninth day, though there was no increase in the sulphates, there was again a small amount of albumen, and the microscope showed pale cylinders, with more or less fatty degeneration. This condition persisted; the urine had, in addition, a very copious sediment of urate of ammonia; the amount of urine became more scanty, and during the last days of life the specific gravity was 1028. At this time all trace of chlorides disappeared from the urine, 104.
Urine albuminous, with a brownish-red sediment containing hæmatin, but no blood-corpuscles, 97.
The urine showed albumen and large amounts of Sulphuric acid, 106.
