Fig. 8.

No. 70 (Dr. Charles H. Ellis) is a small, fimi, degenerate-looking, almost solid mass 40X30X28 mm., composed of small cysts, degenerate decidua, exudate and degeneration products.

As figure 8 shows, it is very similar to a very much larger specimen. No. 323 (Dr. V. Van Williams). The latter is a large, firm, felt-fike mass 120X90X65 mm., represented in figure 9.

The individual cysts, which vary from 1 to 20 mm., are packed together rather firmly, though a few large ones are free. The exterior of the specimen is formed by a thick layer of degenerate decidua and gives only a slight indication of its true nature upon closer inspection or upon examination of the cut surface. No fetal remnants were noticed, and microscopic examination shows tliat the specimen is composed merely of a large hydatiform mass which was retained for a long tune and then aborted in toto with the surrounding decidua and exudate.
