The sinus on the side of the nose gave exit to a continuous discharge of slightly putrid pus, and the patient complained of continuous headache and occasional dizziness, which interfered with his work.
In this case the inner wall of the frontal sinus was broken, affording exit for the lacerated brain.
From this time on the patient made a slow recovery, a small sinusin the lower part of the neck disappearing on the removal of the catgut ligature.
There is a record of death caused by a wound of a cavernoussinus through the orbit by the stem of a tobacco-pipe.
Nelaton describes an instance in which the point of an umbrella wounded the cavernous sinus and internal carotid artery of the opposite side, causing the formation of an arteriovenous aneurysm which ultimately burst, and death ensued.
Peter removed a musket-ball from the frontal sinus after six years' lodgment, with successful issue.
The muzzle more or less shortened, the frontal sinus enlarged, and the cranium elevated and diminished in capacity.
The most natural arrangement of all the varieties of the dog is according to the development of the frontal sinus and the cerebral cavity, or, in other words, the power of scent, and the degree of intelligence.
The seton was continued a fortnight after thesinus was obliterated, and then removed.
The muzzle more or less shortened, the frontal sinus enlarged, and the cranium elevated, and diminished in capacity.
But we have a more important advance in the disappearance of the cloaca; the rectum and anus are separated by a partition from the uro-genital opening (sinus urogenitalis).
The chief arm-nerve traverses the lophophore, being situated between the great arm-sinus and the base of the lip (figs.
In Discinisca and Lingula there is further a lip-sinus or hollow system of channels which traverses the supporting tissue of the edge of the mantle and contains muscle-fibres.
In Crania, where only indications of the lip-sinus occur, there are two other closed spaces.
In the region of the mouth where the two halves of the small arm-sinus approach one another they open into a central sinus lying beneath the oesophagus and partly walled in by the two halves of the ventral mesentery.
The great arm-sinus of each side of the lophophore lies beneath the fold or lip which together with the tentacles forms the ciliated groove in which the mouth opens.
This sinus is continued round the oesophagus as the peri-oesophageal sinus, and thus the whole complex of the small arm-sinus has the relations of the so-called vascular system of a Sipunculid.
The posterior end of the intestine is similarly surrounded by a closed coelomic space known as the peri-anal sinus in which the rectum lies freely, unsupported by mesenteries.
These sinuses are completely shut off from all other cavities, they do not open into the main coelomic space nor into the small arm-sinus, nor does the right sinus communicate with the left.
Anteriorly the dorsal vessel splits into a right and a left half, which enter the small arm-sinus and, running along it, give off a blind branch to each tentacle (fig.
The small arm-sinus runs along the arms of the lophophore at the base of the tentacles, and gives off a blind diverticulum into each of these.
The most part of spices which commeth into Persia is brought from the Island of Ormus, situate in the gulfe of Persia calledSinus Persicus, betweene the maine land of Persia and Arabia, &c.
Each valve usually consists of two semilunar flaps attached to opposite sides of the vessel wall, each flap having a small sinus on its cardiac side.
It may be a foreign body, such as a piece of dead bone, an infected ligature, or a bullet, acting mechanically or by keeping up discharge, and if the body is removed the sinus usually heals.
The extent and direction of any given sinus may be demonstrated by the use of the probe, or, more accurately, by injecting the sinus with a paste consisting of white vaseline containing 10 to 30 per cent.
If it is so infected, suppuration ensues, a sinus forms, and persists until the foreign body is either cast out or removed.
The sinus persists as long as any active tubercle remains in the tissues, and is apt to form an avenue for pyogenic infection.
A probe passed into the sinus strikes carious bone.
If a sinus passes through a muscle, the repeated contractions tend to prevent healing until the muscle is kept at rest by a splint, or put out of action by division of its fibres.
When these and other non-operative measures fail, and the whole track of the sinus is accessible, it should be laid open, scraped, and packed with bismuth or iodoform gauze until it heals from the bottom.
Tuberculous Sinus injected through its opening in the forearm with bismuth paste.
Infective phlebitis is most frequently met with in the transverse sinus as a sequel to chronic suppuration in the mastoid antrum and middle ear.
If disfigurement is likely to follow from cicatricial contraction--for example, in a sinus over the lower jaw associated with a carious tooth--the sinus should be excised and the raw surfaces approximated with stitches.
It would be well to state here a cursory examination of the mouth will not discover root abscesses any more than such examination will discover non-suppurative sinus disease.
The spongy nature of this meshwork affords free access of aqueous to the venous sinus of Schlemm, thence by tributaries into the supra-choroidal space and anterior uveal venous system.
Sclerosis of the meshwork of the iris angle is the predisposing factor because it hinders free access of aqueous into the venous sinus of Schlemm.
On each side of the middle line of the ventral surface of the body a large longitudinal venous sinus exists, called by Milne-Edwards the venous collecting sinus, L.
The lower half of figure shows comparative position of the longitudinal venous sinus (L.
The heart is surrounded by a pericardium, from which at regular intervals a number of dorso-ventral muscles pass, to be inserted into the longitudinal venous sinus on each side.
After the death of Theodosius the "Sinus Rhizonicus" became subject to the Western Empire (395 A.
The bay was known to the ancients as "Sinus Rhizonicus," Rhizon, from which it was then named, being the modern Risano at the extremity of the northern arm.
The Bay of Biscay is the Sinus Aquitanicus, Sinus Cantabricus or Cantaber Oceanus of the Romans; hence it is sometimes known as the Cantabrian Sea.
The whole sinus venosus has become part of the right atrium.
The opening of the sinus venosus is to the right of this shell, that of the pulmonary vein to the left.
The sinus venosus receives the blood from the great veins (ductus Cuvieri and hepatic veins).
In Dipnoans the sinusbecomes greatly dilated and forms a large, rounded, dorsally placed cloacal caecum.
In the Selachians this median sinus is prolonged forwards into a pair of horn-like continuations--the sperm sacs.
Awn not strictly terminal but sub-terminal, or arising from between two teeth or in a sinus at the apex of the palea.
Palea expanded above (coracle-shaped), awn from sinus between two blunt or triangular teeth.
The lower illustration shows schematically the method of finding the pyriform sinus in the author's method of esophagoscopy.
If the beginner cannot start the tube into the pyriform sinus in an adult, it is a good plan to expose the arytenoid eminence with the laryngoscope and then to insert the 7 mm.
Passing through the right pyriform sinus with the esophagoscope; dorsally recumbent patient.
The right pyriform sinus in the dorsally recumbent patient, the eminence at the upper left border, corresponds to the edge of the cricoid cartilage.
The author is much impressed with Freer's method of radiation from the pyriform sinusin such cases as those in which external radiation alone is deemed insufficient.
It will then be found to glide readily through the right pyriformsinus for 2 or 3 cm.
Radium, in form of capsules or of needles inserted in the tissues may be applied with great accuracy; but the author is strongly impressed with pyriform sinus applications by the Freer method.
The larynx is to be exposed as in direct laryngoscopy, the right pyriform sinus identified, the tip of the speculum inserted therein, and gently insinuated to the cricopharyngeal constriction.
It is through the pyriform sinus that the esophagoscope is to be inserted, thereby following the natural food passage.
The veins passing from each side of the sinus venosus.
Note the inferior vena cava, receiving the renal veins from the kidneys, the hepatic veins from the liver, and opening into the sinus venosus.
No matter in what position the sinus is, whether at the extreme anterior portion of the coronet, or whether in the region of the heels, it is to be thoroughly opened up.
Pus again accumulates, lameness arises as before, and disappears again with the second discharge of the contents of the sinus now formed.
The base of the wedge-shaped portion removed contains the opening of the fistula, and the apex of the wedge should reach to the bottom of the sinus (see Fig.
This is a venous system within the structure of, and occupying the semilunar sinus of the os pedis.
It consists in rolling portions of the dressing into little cylinders, wrapped round with thin paper, and introduced into a sinus or other position where considered necessary.
In this way the sinus is completely destroyed, and from end to end converted into an open wound.
Wherever a sinus has existed in it, it is to be carefully scraped, and all dead portions of tissue removed.
If that duck has sinus trouble or bad eyes, you don't have to fix that up before you eat it.
Hitherto supposed to exist only in the dog and wolf, but discovered recently in the frontal sinus of the sheep by my friend Mr Rhind of Edinburgh, by whom the drawing for this figure was kindly furnished.
