Instruments bent at the proper angle(Figs. 39 and 51) will, however, generally be found more convenient, asthey do not obstruct the view of the operator. Other Instruments.—For the remedy of deformities of the nose, arisingfrom congenital deviation or badly set fracture of the septum, Adamsemploys a pair of powerful forceps (Fig. 72), with smooth flat bladeswhich can be easily introduced into the nasal fossae and made to grasp the.

With this instrument it is easy either to separatethe cartilaginous from the bony part of the septum, or to fracture the former,if desired. The fragments are retained in their new position by means oftwo little splints made either of ivory or steel, one being placed in eachnostril, and the two fastened together outside with strings. These splints,however, cannot be kept in apposition without a truss to make pressureon the upper fragment, and an ingenious arrangement for this purposehas been devised by Jurasz,3 of Heidelberg, was led to improve upon this plan on findingthat the septum regained its wrong position when he withdrew the forceps,before there was time to adjust the splint. He therefore modified Adamsinstrument by having the blades and shanks of the forceps separate,
