Note 27 — IV. LEUCOCYTOSIS.
W. Myers translation
It is also of interest to notice the behaviour of the eosinophil cells in the passive form of leucocytosis, lymphæmia. À priori both conditions could be combined. As C. S. Engel has established in the congenital syphilis of children a simultaneous marked increase of lymphocytes and eosinophil cells is found. The lymphocytosis in these cases is probably due to the anatomical changes of the lymph glands, and the eosinophilia to specific chemiotactic attraction.
