Many cases arereferable to an aneurism or intrathoracic growth, but the majority to acentral lesion, and the Eontgen rays will sometimes solve the mystery oftheir origin. The remarks previously made as to prognosis and treatmentapply equally well here. Bilateral Paralysis of the Abductors.—The true nature of bilateralparalysis of the abductors has been much discussed. The muscles affectedare the posterior crico-arytenoids, which separate the cords and are in con-stant respiratory activity, though the movements of the cords in quietbreathing are not always evident to the eye.
