    The Toll of Chronic Nasal Focal Sepsis on Body and Mind.—Patrick Watson-Williams. Fig. 3.—The base of the anterior cranial fossa. The roof of the right orbit, posterior ethmoidal cell, and sphenoidal sinuses laid open. The sphenoidal sinuses are separated normally by a mesial septum. Two cannulae have been passed through the right nasal passage ; one straight backwards has entered the right sphenoidal sinus, and the other, directed somewhat outwards, has entered the right posterior ethmoidal cell. (Case R. H.). (Right) (Left) Fig. 4.—Endorhinoscopic image showing the left side normal. On the right side a streak of pus is seen coming from the middle meatus ; the vessels are congested here and also in the roof of the choana, on the right side only. i Fig. 5.—Exploration with the cannula of the right posterior ethmoidal cell.
