Excerpt from The North-Western Journal of Homoeopathia, Vol. 1If we take the liver, for an example of a subordinate viscus in the standard of its v1tal force, we shall find its structure to be divided into two parts, the one brownish red, the other yellowish white. Injections show the reddish substance to differ materially from the yellowish white. It consists of the capillary vessels of the organ, constituting with a small portion of cellular tissue, a highly distensible structure, erectile and elastic, like the parenchyma of the lungs, and is often the receptacle of those extraordinary accumulations of blood that sometimes Well the liver to double its natural size, without lesion of its structure. Secondly: That the whitish substance 1s a secreting structure, destined to elaborate bile. Each granule of this whitish substance is supposed to receive a ramification of the vena porta, and another of the hepatic artery, and from which the. Bile is formed and conducted off by an incipient biliary duct.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
