After cessation of the Suppuration.—The outlines and forms of theremaining portion of the membrana tympani and the details of theinner wall of the tympanic cavity come much more distinctly intoview. The remains of the membrane are grayish, opaque, thickenedand like parchment, and not unfrequently more or less calcareous deposits appear as sharply denned chalky-white oryellowish spots between the handle of the malleus and the peri-phery (Figs. 179, 182, 183), and are sometimes of such size thatalmost all the remaining portion of the membrane except theperipheral portion of the annulus tendinosus is transformed into a.
