Practitioner's Handbook of Diseases of the Ear and Naso-Pharynx
نویسنده
چکیده
The chapter on the complications of suppurative middle-ear disease, written by William Milligan, is particularly good, containing in small compass a very clear account of the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment, especially operative treatment, of these affections. We note that the author highly values the Wilde incision in the treatment of mastoid periostitis when the periostitis is primary or secondary to uncomplicated acute suppurative inflammation of the tympanic mucosa. The author states that in many such cases the inflammation within the middle ear will quickly subside after the incision has been made. Many otologists have failed to obtain these good results from a mere incision into the periosteum, and think that it is better to carry the operative procedures further, and to open the mastoid antrum.
