In other placesthere was no connective tissue for wide tracts, and in those places where theepithelial cells were especially large and the gland vesicles entirely filled,the latter were bent and irregularly formed, and one would easily get theimpression that he had a piece from a carcinoma of the gland before him.Whether in this case, at the beginning, only the multiple fibroma-nodulesexisted, and hypertrophy of the portions of the gland not included inthem first developed with pregnancy, is hard to say.
