Carus, who judiciously observes[393], That it is contradictory to suppose that a canal should absorb or exude fluids by its parietes in a different form.
Notwithstanding a projectile has not penetrated the parietes of the chest, a pleural cavity may be opened, as in injuries from other causes, and the lung wounded by the sharp edges of fractured ribs.
When the abdominal parietes have been opened by shell or passage of large shot, protrusion of omentum and intestines will probably be one of the results.
If the parietes have been much contused, abscess or sloughing may be expected; and a tendency to visceral protrusion must be afterward guarded against.
When the projectile has been of large size, although no opening of the parietes or fracture exists, death sometimes ensues by suffocation as the direct result of pulmonary engorgement.
An important viscus of the abdomen has been ruptured, yet no bruising of the parietes observable; symptoms of cerebral concussion have shown themselves, yet no injury of the scalp to be detected.
In gunshot wounds, closure of the parietes by adhesion is of course not to be looked for.
The external surface is rounded, except near the umbo, where the edge is carinated; growth almost equally upwards and downwards; the parietes and tectum are not separated by ridges.
Slight ridges separate the roof from the parietes, and the parietes from the intra-parietes.
Now release the fold, but hold the syringe steady; as the parietes flatten out, the point of the needle is left free in the peritoneal cavity (see Fig.

In certain of the lower vertebrates (fishes) large sections of the intestine lie entirely free within the abdomen, their only connection with the parietes being afforded by the blood vessels.
In other cases the ascending colon is fixed and the greater part of the retro-colic appendix is buried in the connective tissue which attaches the large intestine to the abdominal parietes (Fig.

Therefore, to whichever side the abdominal fluid gravitates, we may expect to find it occupying space between the abdominal parietes and the small intestines.
The thoracic parietes expand and contract to a certain degree; and to that same degree, and no further, do the lungs within the thorax expand and contract.
The cutaneous, fascial, muscular, and membranous layers of the abdominal parietes are continued into those of the scrotum.
The most common situations of abdominal herniae are at the inguinal regions, towards which the intestines, T T, naturally gravitate; and at these situations the abdominal parietes are weak and membranous.
The part of the peritonaeum which lines the inguinal parietes does not (in the normal state of the adult body) exhibit any aperture corresponding to that named the internal ring.
The muscular parietes of the male inguinal region, from which the loose cremaster muscle has been derived, have by this circumstance become weakened, and hence the more frequent occurrence of external inguinal hernia in the male.
The possibility of a thickening of the parietes of the abdomen by inflammation, or by an exudation of a carcinomatous sort, being mistaken for a tumour rising out of the pelvis.
After exposing the trachea, a longitudinal incision, about three-quarters of an inch in length, was made through its parietes at the third ring.
During the months of December and January last, she remained free from any inconvenience from the tumour, and the union of the parietes of the artery was therefore regarded as complete.
It would seem that the sutures were passed through the parietes of the oesophagus only, and that the external wound was kept open by being filled with tow.
Though the head appears large at first, and for a long time continues so, yet its contents are tardy in their development, and until the sixth month the parietes of the skull are in great measure membranous or cartilaginous.
When labour is over, the uterus contracts very considerably, and, in a few days after, its parietes will be found at least an inch in thickness.
In some cases where the uterus and parietes of the abdomen were extremely thin, I have been able," says Dr.
Having ascertained this point, it next becomes a question, whether the parietes of the gravid uterus increase in thickness during pregnancy, or whether they become thinner.
Note: Varices are owing to local retardation of the venous circulation, and in some cases to relaxation of the parietes of the veins.
Defn: The walls of a cavity or an organ; as, the abdominal parietes; the parietes of the cranium.
The walls of the yolk-sack either assist in forming the dorsal parietes of the body, or are more probably enclosed within the body by the growth of the dorsal parietes from the edge of the ventral plate.
The greater part of them disappears, but in the closure of the dorsal parietes the serous envelope plays a peculiar part, which is not yet understood.
The bladder had burst, and the parietes were in a dreadful state of inflammation.
A thickening of the substance of the heart is occasionally suspected, and, on the other hand, an increased capacity of the cavities of the heart; the parietes being considerably thinner, and the frame of the animal emaciated.
During the Franco-German war Dr Reginald Pierson, as he afterwards informed me, removed a lumbricus from an abscess formed in the abdominal parietes of a soldier.
When they find their way into the parietes of the abdomen and adjacent parts, they usually give rise to the formation of abscesses requiring surgical interference.
I have thought it only due to Robin and myself to show that from the first we were perfectly well acquainted with the fact of the “great development of the genital tube and of its close adherence to the parietes of the body.

The parietes of the spinal marrow stand therefore in everlasting tension with each other, like ganglia and plexuses, and like arteries and veins.
The integument presents therefore to the external world, or to the nutritive matter, two parietes or walls, an external and an internal.
In aquatic animals the antagonism is at its minimum, because externally and internally there is water; both parietes are therefore mucus-walls.
This, however, can only take place at the expense of the internal mass, as being that alone which abuts against the external parietes and becomes rigid.
Bones and muscles are the animal parietes of the nerves, as the two vascular membranes are the vegetative walls of the blood.
The ovaria are two sacs, like two Infusoria, in whose parietes granules are developed; even the testes are only two such sacs or seminal vesicles wherein the "milt" is contained.
Blood has a money value, which will, sooner or later, be generally appreciated.
The short horn produces more beef at the same age than the Hereford, but consumes more food in proportion.
Their edge is very sharp; and as the animal begins to live upon more solid food, this edge becomes worn, showing the bony part of the tooth beneath, and indicates with considerable precision the length of time they have been used.
They are now almost double the size, and yield about four times the quantity of milk that the Ayrshire cows formerly yielded.

In some countries cattle-dealers shave the back part of the cow.
The Herefords are far less generally spread over England than the improved short horns.
The color of the North Dutch cattle is mostly variegated.
The anterior wall of the bladder is then exposed, uncovered by peritoneum; it must be opened with great care, also in the middle line, while the wound in the parietes is held aside by retractors.
Ruysch, however, makes the observation that atrophy of the alveolar parietes may also precede the falling out of the teeth, and rather be the cause than an effect of it.
He confirmed a most important fact to which allusion had already been made by preceding authors, that is, the atrophy of the alveolar parietes as following on the extraction or on the falling out of teeth.
The discharge through the lungs is the most favorable route, next by the parietesof the abdomen, and lastly by the intestinal canal.
Abscesses arising in the abdominal cavity or its parietes are peculiarly apt to gravitate into the pelvis and to communicate with the rectum.
In myalgia of the abdominal parietes pressure causes pain, as do also movements of the body, coughing, sneezing, etc.

When a large accumulation has taken place and the parietes of the sac are thin, fluctuation may be detected, but it cannot then be regarded as decisive.
Repeated insertion of the needle-trocar is preferable when the abscess is small, but when the accumulation is large and sufficiently firm attachments to the abdominal parietes exist, a drainage-tube will be necessary.
