A text-book of the diseases of the ear and adjacent organs . brana tyinpani has a greater power of resistancethan the central portion, the latter is forced inwards more strongly b :ial air-pressure, which produces, especially in the anterior inferiorquadrant, a curve which I first described as the peripheral curve of the niein-brana tyinpani, and winch can be distinguished by a linear, lustrous striavisible in that situation iFig. 113). Besides this lustrous line, a smallirregular reflection of light will also be found close in front of the inferiorextremity of the handle of the malleus. The colour of the membrane is ?dark, full-bodied gray (yellowish-gray in the case of exudation), mixed witha violet or reddish tinge, dependent on the intensity of the redness of theinner wall of the tympanic cavity shining through. After a long duration of the catarrh, partial thinning of the membrane inone or more places frequently takes place, rarely in the anterior half, oftener inthe posterior half. These atrophies may be pit-sent after a catarrh without.
