Not illustrated. 1902 Excerpt: ...a syphilitic catarrh, with marked ozena; and, later, papules and erosions, gummata, and infiltrations in the mucosa, the periosteum, and the perichondrium of the parts may be found. The result of these changes may be necrosis and caries of cartilaginous and bony tissues. In the latter case there will be malformation of the nose. Glanders is unusual in the human nose. It causes nodular infiltrations and ulcers. The commonest neoplasms in the nose are mucous polyps as circumscribed hyperplasias of the mucosa. They consist of a cavernous tissue like that of the mucous membrane, or contain glands also. Polypoid fibroma and adenoma are also found. Of the malignant tumors, epithelioma (squamous celled) of the nostril, sarcoma, chondrosarcoma, and others may occur. The so-called fibrous pharyngeal polyp is a fibrosarcoma starting in the periosteum of the basis cranii and growing into the nasal and pharyngeal cavities. B. LARYNX, TRACHEA, AND LARGE BRONCHI. Larynx and Trachea. As a congenital anomaly the epiglottis may be slit or the larynx may be hypoplastic. In the laryngeal mucosa simple circulatory disorders with increased excretion may be hard to separate from inflammatory lesions. Both may occur with the clinical symptoms of edema of the glottis, in either an acute or a chronic form. The mucosa is then the seat of an extreme accumulation of serous fluid, and where it is loosely connected to the tissues beneath it swells so that the lumen of the tube is closed, and death by asphyxia may occur. The parts most swollen are the aryepiglottic folds and the space between them. In the cadaver the swelling may have partly disappeared, but in this case the tissues are loose and lie in folds, and we conclude that during life the edema was more marked. At times the swell...
