The Suh-peritoneal Fibroid Grotvths may originate at anypart of the surface of the uterus, mostly from the upper part ofthe organ. Sometimes they originate quite low down on the partof the uterus designated as the cervix. These tumors attain a Fig. 87.* Text Appearing After Image: larger size than those situated in the wall of the uterus or withinit; the very large specimens belong to it; they are attached by abroad or narrow portion. The pedicle is often of considerablelength, and corresponding tenuity, and the tumor then hangsfreely in the abdominal or pelvic cavity. If the tumor is broadlyattached to the uterus, this organ generally increases much in size. * By way of contrast to Fig. 86, Fig. 87 shows a fibroid mass of enormoussize, from a patient at University College Hospital, who has been the subjectof this growth for upwards of ten years. 550 PATHOLOGY AND TREATMENT. but if the pedicle is narrow such is not the case. In the verylarge tumor (41 lbs.) previously alluded to, the uterus was quiteatrophied. We often see more than one sub-peritoneal tumor inthe same patient. A very curious feature in the history of these sub-peritoneal tu-mors is that the pedicle is sometimes torn across, and the mass en-tirely separated from the uterus, while the tumor itsel Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work.
