A text-book of the diseases of the ear and adjacent organs . dhesions between the cruraof the stapes and the wall of the niche after middle-ear catarrh in 1870, and reportedthe result at the International Otological Congress in Basle in 1884. ( Congressbericht, 1884.) 21 322 THE OPERATIVE TREATMENT OF THE ADHESIVE PROCESSES. differential diagnosis between fixation of the footplate of the stapes and thatof the crura should be previously made. To carry out the operation the posterior superior quadrant of the membranatynipani is opened by means of the galvano-cautery. An opening 3 mm. indiameter should be made, through which, in normal anatomical conditions, thearticulation of the incus and stapes should be visible (Fig. 143). Very oftenthe chorda tympani is interfered with, but the paralysis of taste on the affectedside is transient. Instead of the galvano-cautery perforation of the mem-brana tympani, the articulation of the incus and stapes may be laid free bymeans of a triangular incision in the posterior superior quadrant, with the.
