Roentgen diagnosis of diseases of the head . e. The tumor extended up-ward to the planum sphenoidale, posteriorly to the sphenoid sinus, andoutward to the lateral third of the orbit. The extirpation of the osteomaof von Eiselsberg verified the x-ray finding. Case 2.—T., male, twenty-eight years of age. Exophthalmus on theright side. A hard tumor was palpable on the inner surface of the rightorbit. The roentgenogram showed an olive-sized bony tumor, with a broad base,on the median wall of the orbit. Since the shadow of the tumor was lessdense in the center than on the edges, we made the diagnosis of a com-bined osteoma and mucocele. In the operation, performed in the Fuchsclinic, there was actually found a cavity covered with mucous membranein the middle of the osteoma. Case 3.—S. W., female, forty-seven years old. Complete blindness. Therhinologic examination revealed the fact that a tumor, a cylindroma, wasgrowing ou1 from the sphenoid sinus. On the roentgenogram one saw that the body of the sphenoid was nearly APPENDIX 257. Fig. 95.—A dextrosinistral picture of the head of Case 3. The outline of the sella isquite indistinct due to the fact that it is infiltrated by a carcinomatous growth.
