By referring to the diagram,it will be seen at once that a bila-teral incision could only widen thecanal a little transversely, but notat all antero-posteriorly ; that thecurvature would remain the same,and consequently the distances between the two opposing surfaces of the cervical canalwould in no way be modified by such so often failed, under such circumstances, toafford the relief anticipated from the bilateral incision, Iat last devised and practised the follo
