A text-book of the diseases of the ear for students and practitioners . Fig. 75.—Fixation of the Catheter intro- Fig. 76.—Delstanchesduced into the eustachian tube with nose clamp, the Left Hand. In reference to the advantages and disadvantages of bothmethods, stress must be laid on the fact that Bonnafontsmethod is impracticable in cases in which the posterior lip ofthe tube is flattened or absent, either through ulceration, cicatri-cial formation on the lateral pharyngeal wall, senile atrophy, orthrough disappearance in consequence of chronic catarrh. It is,furthermore, impracticable where the catheter cannot be broughtnear the posterior lip of the tube on account of abnormalities ofthe turbinated bones and of the septum. The execution of thismethod is also made difficult if the posterior lip of the tube cannotbe found, in consequence of marked swelling in the posteriorpharynx, or through granulations, adenoids and new growths. In such cases our object will be effected more quickly and safelyby the Lowenberg method. Although this method has been use
