. A Reference handbook of the medical sciences : embracing the entire range of scientific and practical medicine and allied science. they are two innumber, one on either side,and extend from the inferiorface of the atlas to the an-terior part of the capacity of each is aboutthree-fourths of a pint; but,in consequence of the exten-sibility of the mucous mem-brane, this is very pouches are situated im-mediately beneath the parotidglands and sometimes becometilled with pus and press uponthe larynx, interfering withrespiration. The thyroidgland is composed of two ovallobes situated immediatelybehind the larynx, beside thefirst two rings of the lobes appear to be in-dependent, but close exam-ination shows them to beunited by an intermediateportion, the isthmus, whichpasses across the anterior faceof the trachea. They shouldbe excised and removed. The parotid glands shouldnext be removed and the gut-tural pouches laid open. The tongue, larynx, trachea, pharynx, oesophagus, andsubmaxillary glands should be removed en masse. Beforedoing this, however, Slenons duct should be examined,.
