ON INFLAMMATION OF THE VAGINA.

By T. SNOW BECK, M.D.Lond., F.R.S., F.R.C.S.; Physician to the
Farringdon General Dispensary and Lying-in Charity; Secretary
of the London Medical Society of Observation, etc.

[Read before the Medical Society of London.]

THE large tract of mucous membrane, extending from the orifice of the vagina to the orifice of the uterus, is obnoxious to various diseases; and unquestionably the affection most frequently met with in practice is inflammation. The inflammation may be partial, or extend over the whole surface; it may be acute or chronic; it may be limited to the vagina, properly so called, or it may extend upwards into the membrane lining the uterus, and finally involve the proper structure of this organ; or extend downwards, and implicate the mucous membrane of the vulva; it may also extend beyond the substance of the membrane, attack the cellular tissue which surrounds it, and cause the formation of abscesses in this situation; or the erectile tissue which partially surrounds the vagina, may, together with the large and numerous veins, become implicated in the morbid action, and constitute a most distressing affection. Each of these variations in the character and extent of the inflammation causes a difference in the symptoms, and requires a modification in the treatment; but it is only inflammation of the vagina, considered in a general manner, and without reference to particular modifications, that can be considered within the limits of this paper.

SYMPTOMS. When consulted by a patient labouring under an affection of this kind, it is rare, except in severe or acute cases, that our attention is directed to the seat of the disease. She frequently com
