The edges of a rupturefrom a direct wound are generally irregular, jagged,and suffused with blood; those of a rupture from in-direct force almost always show a clean fissure parallel 90 PATHOLOGY OF THE EAR. to the radial fibres of the membrane. The ruptureswhich are seen in artillerists often run parallel to andbehind the manubrium. When ruptures occur froma moderate air-pressure, it will usually be found thatthe anatomical condition of the drum-membrane pre-disposed thereto, atrophy or cal
