Excerpt from Canada Medical and Surgical Journal, Vol. 4: June, 1876 It appears that on the evening of the Ioth, Mrs. R. Was suddenly seized with most alarming symptoms Of suffocation, constriction and pain within the chest, particularly on the left side, attended with great distress, countenance and skin livid, dyspnoea, and violent paroxysms Of coughing, which ended in her coughing up a quantity of what ultimately proved to be fibrinous tube casts Of the bronchi, equal in bulk to about a large table spoonful, when washed from the accompanying catarrhal expectoration. The sputa were at first, and only at first, very slightly tinged with blood. And a few blood points were Observed on some of the tube casts. In a few hours another paroxysm Of coughing ended in more expectoration of tube casts, the disappearance Of cyanosis, and most marked relief to the patient.
