Intermittence of Pyuria at the Level of the Renal Papillae 1 1 Note: This paper, substantially as it appears above, was read eight years ago before the Medical Society of Virginia, was laid aside for further consideration, and is now published for the first time. During this interval a considerable number of similar cases have been encountered, tending to confirm the original observations. Since that time, also, the work of Richards has given new emphasis to the theory that “not all parts of the kidney act to the same degree all the time and that one part of the excreting surface may rest or be active while another part is in reserve.” This may have an interesting bearing upon our own speculation expressed in paragraph 3 of the discussion of possible explanations of the phenomenon constituting the basis of this paper.
