VIBEX
17
Definition
Pronunciation: //ˈvaɪbɛks//
noun
- (medicine) An extensive patch of subcutaneous extravasation of blood."During the last winter, the child was again brought to me, but in a dying state, and the mother could not be persuaded to allow it to come into the hospital: it was as well-grown as children of its age, very anæmic, but with several purpurous spots, or rather vibices, upon the body; […] The poor mother afterwards came in great distress, because a medical practitioner, who had been called in to see the child, not recognising the nature of the malady, said there must be a coroner's inquest; the purpurous vibices upon the body being mistaken for the bruises of ill treatment."
