A similar but less marked result is obtained when the unequalpatency of the nasal fossae is due to enlargement of one inferiorturbinate (Fig. 6).. >. .5.—Deviation of septum to left, 12 respirations per minute.

The widening of a nasal fossa by cocaine and adrenalin isfollowed by an increase of ^° to 1° in the excursus. On the other hand, mere width of the nasal fossae does not initaelf give a large excursus. In atrophic rhinitis the excursustends to be smaller than normal (Fig. 7), as the following table ofcases shows : 522 The Journal of Laryngology, [October, 1913.
