A Diagnostic Tender Spot in Pulmonary Tuberculosis. By palpating the tip of the superior angle of the scapula at the insertion of the levator anguli scapulæ, and riding over it with more or less inward pressure, Harris finds constant tenderness over affected lungs. He considers it due either to degeneration of the muscle or to a reflex of some of the spinal nerves.—Harris; Journ. Am. Med. Sciences.
