A common characteristic for the malignancy of tumors is the property of their cells to capture adjacent tissues, enter by lymphatic or blood vessels, graft and give new tumors both in the nearest parts of the body (dissemination), as well as in distant organs that hide (metastases). On a microscopic preparation, you can see in addition to the phenomena of multiplication of tumor cells (karyokinesis), even cells moving from the periphery of the tumor into the nearest lymphatic gap and lymphatic gland, where they, multiplying, give secondary nodes; in the same way, they can be found in the blood, by which they are carried to the most diverse and distant parts of the body, sometimes giving (for example, sarcomas) an innumerable number of metastatic tumors of the same histological structure.

Gliomas in the transverse region are comparatively bright and therefore any new observation may be of some interest. In view of this, I think the case described below deserves attention.

The purpose of this note is to share with comrades some observations made by me during the cholera epidemic of the current year. When the epidemic detachment of the Saratov provincial zemstvo was in charge in August and the first half of September, I had to work among the rather rude and little-cultured population of the Tsaritsyn district.
