Excerpt from The Syphilis of Children in Every-Day PracticeZille's observations on the placenta are of great interest. The maternal portion, the foetal, or both of them, may be attacked by syphilis. If the child be syphilitic, the foetal portion suffers, and the maternal is usually healthy. Now and then the latter is involved, in which case the mother will be syphilized by her foetus. If the mother he syphilized some time before conception, the maternal, and perhaps the foetal, placenta is diseased. The life or death of the foetus de pends upon the amount of injury to the placenta, and in any case it will be syphilitic if the foetal portion be attacked. If the mother he syphilized at conception, all parts of the placenta su¿'er, together with the foetus. If the mother becomes syphilitic after impregnation by a healthy man, the foetus usually escapes, but the maternal placenta su¿'ers more or less.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
