In the table of autopsies the following lesions are listed:
Column 7. Purulent bronchitis.—“P” indicates that the small bronchi contain mucopurulent fluid.
Column 8. Lobar pneumonia.—The occurrence of the lesion is indicated by the plus sign (+).
Column 9. Peribronchiolar consolidation.—The presence of nodular patches of consolidation about respiratory bronchioles is indicated by the plus sign (+) when the lesion has been recognized at the time of autopsy. When the lesion has been first recognized by microscopic examination the letter “M” is used.
Column 10. Hemorrhagic peribronchiolar consolidation.—The occurrence of this lesion which represents the preceding on a background of hemorrhage is indicated by the plus sign (+).
Column 11. Lobular consolidation.—The presence of the lesion is indicated by the plus sign (+).
Column 12. Peribronchial consolidation.—Peribronchial pneumonia recognized at the time of autopsy is indicated by the plus sign (+). Peribronchial pneumonia recognized microscopically is indicated by “M.” The presence of peribronchial hemorrhage without consolidation is indicated by “h.”
Column 13. Abscess formation with pneumonia.—Suppuration with abscess formation almost invariably just below the pleura is indicated by the plus sign (+). Necrosis of lung tissue recognized microscopically and unaccompanied by suppuration is indicated by “N.”
Column 14. Suppurative interstitial pneumonia.—This lesion invariably associated with suppurative lymphangitis is indicated by the plus sign (+).
Column 15. Multiple abscess in clusters.—Abscesses in clusters about a bronchus of medium size are indicated by the plus sign (+).
