To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is flattened both on top and sides. Its antero-posterior diam- eter is elongated. Its width is also increased. The size of the cranium is therefore large, but not usually so large as in hydrocephalus or hypertrophy of the brain. The sutures remain open, so that, between the illy-developed cranium and the equally ill-nourished brain, there is often fluid, simply filling up the space, and not the result of any inflammatory effusion. This condition is termed " spurious hydrocephalus'' It freque...ntly happens in rachitis that the cranium is unsym- metrical. I have noticed this particularly in the case of a child whose mother had the use of but one breast. This compelled the child to always lie on the same side while nursing and the pres- sure of the head against the breast had markedly flattened that side of it. But the most pathognomonic symptoms of rickets is caused by the enlargement of the epiphyseal ends of the ribs where they join the costal cartilage. This is, in most cases, very no- ticeable, and constitutes what is variously called the " row of beads, " the " rachitic rosary, " or the " rachitic garland.
