Excerpt from Annual of the Universal Medical Sciences, 1888, Vol. 3: A Yearly Report of the Progress of the General Sanitary Sciences Throughout the World It is thus seen that there is a histological and physiological relationship between the epiblastic elements of the eye and the epi blastic tissues in the rest of the body, and between the mesoblastic tissues of the eye and all other mesoblastic tissues. The patho logical relationship is none the less intimate and exact the cutaneous eruptions of strumous children, the eczemas, herpes, impetigos, etc., are concomitants of the phlyctenulae of the epithelial layers of the cornea. In ophthalmic herpes the corneal change is likewise epi blastic. Syphilis, on the other hand, is a disease of mesoblastic textures, and ocular syphilitic affections are found to be of meso blastic origin. The notched, pegged, and stunted teeth of inherited syphilis are not faults of the epiblastic enamel, but of the mesoblastic dental papillae. Though epiblastio portions of the eye may become secondarily involved, the lesion begins in the mesoblastic structures. These and other analogies are valuable not only for diagnostic pur poses, but also for therapeutic uses. Certain drugs have a special affinity for particular tissue-elements, and this fact mav be utilized in prescription.
