Excerpt from On the Etiology, Pathology, and Treatment of Fibro-Bronchitis and Rheumatic Pneumonia
The etiology and pathological semeiology of diseases of the chest having been thoroughly examined and elucidated by so many profound observers, it may seem proper to apologize for entertaining the subject anew, and, especially, for instituting an inquiry into a disease so common as bronchial catarrh, and which generally occurs in so mild a form, that there is a proneness to regard it as far simpler and better understood than almost any other affection.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a concise yet thorough examination of the often-overlooked condition of fibrous bronchitis, a disease distinct from ordinary bronchitis and idiopathic pneumonia. It was previously believed that these three conditions were related, but this book posits that fibrous bronchitis actually causes rheumatic pneumonia, and points out how this trio of related but distinct diseases might coexist within the same lung. The author suggests that the rheumatic element is not always essential to fibrous bronchitis, and that it might depend on either uric acid salts or retained nitrogenized matter in the blood. By distinguishing these conditions and their symptoms from each other, clinicians can better target and personalize treatment.
