Abstract
1. The histology of the elastic tissue in the skin is described. 2. A method is described for determining the elasticity of the shin after death. 3. The importance of the shin as a physical "elastic membrane," possessing a certain amount of tension, is discussed with relation to tissue tension and the extravascular circulation of fluid in the limbs. 4. A short account is given of the part played by the shin, by reason of its elasticity and its effect on tissue tension, in the development of oedema.
