The State of the Capillaries in Certain Pathological Lesions and Their Condition in Cases of Sudden Death

Symington, Jean W (1930) The State of the Capillaries in Certain Pathological Lesions and Their Condition in Cases of Sudden Death. PhD thesis, University of Glasgow.

Abstract

The material on which this thesis is founded was obtained from the investigation of cases of sudden and unforeseen death occuring in the wards of the Victoria Infirmary, Glasgow, and of cases which were reported as deaths on arrival at the Informary. It includes also certain cases of a similar nature in the medico-legal work entrusted to Dr. Anderson by the Procurator-Fiscal. The works of Krogh, Dale, Lewie and others reveal how extensively these authors have investigated the changes found on the capillaries; and these changes are considered from the anatomical, physiological, and clinical aspects of research. Pathologists, however, have not contributed largely to the literature on this subject, and it is from the pathological viewpoint that this article treats the changes produced in the capillary vessels.
