“…The condition is still a serious one with a mortalityrate of up to 47 per cent (Bastable, de Jode, and Warren, 1959;Yarwood, 1959). Misdiagnosis is common, the usual diagnosis being peritonitis secondary to a perforated peptic ulcer (Yarwood, 1959).…”

In Bastable's series 25% of cases had 300 ml or more of urine in the bladder; however, urine obtained by catheter may come from the peritoneal cavity if the catheter passes through the tear in the bladder wall.…”

“…Smith and Zavaleta (1952) consider monostotic fibrous dysplasia of cranial or facial bones as synonymous with ossifying fibroma. Other authors, however, are strongly opposed to the opinion of identity of these conditions and consider monostotic fibrous dysplasia as a separate clinical entity (Thomas, 1956;Weinmann and Sicher, 1955).…”
