VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This image displays a set of three medical illustrations depicting various pathological conditions. Each illustration is rendered with careful attention to detail, using soft hues and shading to represent the textures and forms of the affected tissues. On the left, there's an illustration labeled as "1. Pulmonary Emphysema in a case of Mitral Disease. " It shows lung tissue that appears hyperinflated and has numerous small bubble-like structures indicative of emphysema, which is often associated with heart disease affecting the mitral valve. The middle illustration is marked as "2. Heart in do [ditto] from same subject, " suggesting it depicts the heart from the same individual suffering from mitral disease. The heart appears enlarged or hypertrophic, likely due to increased workload resulting from valvular dysfunction. The image on the right is labeled as "3. Aneurism [Aneurysm] of Arch; false sac obliterated by coagula. " This drawing illustrates an aneurysm—a bulging section—in what seems to be part of a major artery (the arch could refer to the aortic arch). The term 'false sac' implies that this may not be a true expansion of all layers but rather one where blood has escaped through some inner layers and formed an outer bulge held together by clotting blood (coagula). Below these images, there's a label providing additional context: "Vascular Emphysema / Adenoma Glottidis Ulceration Larynx. " These terms suggest other conditions possibly related to or present alongside those depicted above—vascular emphysema might relate to air within vascular structures; adenoma glottidis refers potentially to benign growths near or on vocal cords; ulceration larynx indicates sores or open wounds in the voice box area. Overall, this historical medical document provides visual insight into complex cardiovascular and respiratory pathologies observed during that period.
