subpleural

Reimer's 17 cases give the following post-mortem results: the lungs were hyper�mic in 8 cases, twice the seat of pneumonia, and three times of embolic infarctions; in addition, emphysema in 12, oedema in 6, atelectasis in 7, subpleural ecchymoses in 7, pericardial ones in 4.

Still, they often present congestion or oedema, and subpleural ecchymoses, hemorrhagic infarctions, and pneumonic consolidation are not rare.
