Case III. Male, thirty years old. Acute otitis media forten days. Discharge from ear gradually decreasing. Some gran-ulation tissue projection through the perforation in the drummembrane. Some swelling of the posterior superior part of thecanal wall. No pain over the mastoid. No spontaneous nystag-mus. Turning test normal. Temperature normal. A radiograph showed that all of the mastoid cells were in-fected, that the sinus was exposed just below and posterior tothe mastoid antrum, also that the sinus was situated well forwardclose to the antrum and that the mastoid bone was very small. All of these conditions were confirmed by the operative find-ings. The recovery was a normal one.
