Such as these have the usual lobed and lobular plan of con-struction ; and I think the intersecting partitions commonly extendfrom a firm, fibrous-looking central or deep part, towards the circum-ference of the tumor. In the other direction from the assumed average or medium form, wefind firmer tumors. These have a drier and tougher texture ; they areopaque, milk-white, or yellowish, like masses of dense connective tissue, lobed, and having their lobes easily separable; as in the great specimen, weighing seven pounds, in the College Museum (No. 208). * Mus. Coll. Surg., No. 2772. In this specimen there is also a peculiar warty growth inthe skin over the tumor. t Such as No. 2774 in the College Museum. 488 MAMMARY QLANDULAR TUMORS.. To such as these varieties we might add many, due not merely tointermediate forms, but to the degrees in which the intra-cystic mode ofgrowth is manifested; or to the development of cysts, which may takeplace as well in this new gland-tissue as in the old; or to the variouscontents of these cysts, whether liquids or organized growths, * I believe we cannot at present always connect these various aspectsof the tumors with any corresponding varieties in their histories. Neither, I think, have any investiga-tions proved more of the correspondingvarieties of microscopic structure, thanthat, as a general rule, the tougher anytumor is, and the slower its growth hasbeen, the more it has of the connective, mingled with its glandular, tissue; whilethe more succulent and vitreous one is, and the more rapid its growth, the lessperfectly is the glandular tissue developed.The microscopic structures may bebest de
