Anatomical changes occurring in puerperal eclampsia

In an extensive work devoted to anatomical changes in eclampsia, Bouffe in the first part sets out everything that is available in the literature on this issue. The liver undergoes the greatest and constant changes in eclampsia. The first to pay attention to this was, as you know, A. Pilliet, who partly with Ltienne, partly independently posted a detailed description of those pathological and anatomical changes that are found in the liver with eclampsia. These changes in Pilliet go through three stages of their development.
