[Regularities in the distribution of sweat glands and the principles of their grouping in man].
Under study were skin pieces from 80 regions of the body of 41 human fetuses and embryos, 5 corpses of newborns and 43 corpses of people of different age. Series of paraffin sections stained by conventional methods as well as total preparations and thick sections stained with methylene blue were examined. The laying of eccrine and apocrine sweat glands in the skin covered or not with hair was shown to occur repeatedly. Basing on the succession of their appearance they are called the glands of the first, second and third generations. The principle of grouping of eccrine sweat glands is shown both in the composition of glandular-hair complexes and in the groups independent of hair. The author proposes using of letter and figure symbols to signify variations of their disposition in formulars. The appocrine sweat glands are also laid repeatedly in the sites of their typical localization.
