Subcapsular liver hemorrhages are on a par with other subserous hemorrhages. They are important only insofar as they may be extensive, and with rupture of the capsule may result in hemorrhage into the peritoneal cavity with death. Hemorrhages into the kidney are frequent. In the interstices of the apices of the pyramids, or in the neighborhood of the venae et arteriae arciformes. Hemorrhages into the Malpighian bodies and cortex are rare.
Infarcts appear in the same sites as the hemorrhages.
The hemorrhages of the digestive tract are next in importance to those of the brain. In small prematures, dying shortly after birth, one often finds hemorrhages scattered throughout the entire tract. In the deeper portions of the intestines, hemorrhages occur infrequently about the ileo-cecal valve and in the mucosa of the large bowel. These hemorrhages appear chiefly under the epithelial cells in the tunica propria. Blood often appears in the bowel lumen after rupture of the mucosa.
