The work delves into phlebitis, exploring the effects of purulent deposits in the bloodstream and outlining the conditions that lead to inflammation of the veins. It is an important study in the historical development of medical understanding of blood pathologies. The opening of the text introduces the author’s exploration of phlebitis and the insufficient attention given to the role of blood and its interactions with morbid secretions. Lee discusses the historical backdrop of humoral pathology and critiques the lack of focus on the movement of vitiated fluids within the body. Early experiments are detailed, highlighting how pus affects blood coagulation and probing into the complexities of how foreign substances can influence vascular health. Lee emphasizes the importance of experimental evidence, presenting a foundation for his analysis of the conditions under which blood becomes compromised and the consequential effects on the venous system.
