Record 2 2013-12-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Symptoms (Medicine)
CONT

Retraction of the tympanic membrane is an important sign of Eustachian tube obstruction. The expert judges this on a summation of features such as distortion or absence of the cone of light, impaired mobility, and a rotation of the malleus backwards so that the short process is more prominent, and the handle apparently shortened as its angulation to the meatus is increased.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Symptômes (Médecine)
CONT

La rétraction tympanique s'apprécie sur la position du manche du marteau et la forme du tympan près du sulcus. Un important collapsus postéro-supérieur doit faire craindre une poche de rétraction filant soit vers l'attique, soit derrière le manche, soit vers le sinus tympani.
