On the rigidity of arteries in children
Several years ago, based on the material of the children's sanatorium of the Southern Railway in Evpatoria, where I was a consultant, I noticed an interesting fact — a special, not corresponding to age, density of arteries in children. In this case, the arteries were palpated as more or less dense cords, reminiscent of sclerotic arteries of adults, but distinguished by the absence of knots and tortuosity. I have repeatedly demonstrated this phenomenon to residents of our sanatorium, however, I began to develop this issue only in 1936, based on the material of the same sanatorium.
