TREPHINING THE ANTRUM OF HIGHMORE. 559 Osteoplastic Resection of the Skull.—In this opera-tion for exposing the membranes of the brain, a portionof the skull having the soft parts attached is turnedaside, so that it may subsequently be replaced and suturedin its original position. The operation is frequentlyemployed to expose the ganglia at the base of the brainand in the removal of tumors of the brain. A horseshoe-shaped incision is made, and the edges are allowed to retract(Fig. 471). A groove is next c
