The effusions were most strongly marked in cases of fractures of the diaphyses, although this was more noticeable in some situations than others.

The aseptic nature of the wounds, and the slight and localised character of the bone lesions, have in fact justified the opinion previously expressed by Von Coler, that these injuries in the future would be less feared than fractures of the diaphyses of the bones.

Simultaneous separation of the _epiphysis of both radius and ulna_ sometimes occurs, and, as a result of severe violence, may be compound, the lower ends of the diaphyses projecting through the skin on the palmar aspect above the wrist.

In young subjects before the bones are fully developed the epiphyses may be separated from the diaphyses.

Depression has been observed in the bones of the cranium, ribs, scapula, neck of the femur, and of the diaphyses generally.
