Abstract
Previous descriptions of the surgical anatomy of the feline middle ear have been misleading, so that the gross features of the double‐shelled configuration are clarified here. Horner's syndrome is a frequent complication of bulla osteotomy in the cat. The authors suggest that overzealous curettage of the promontory is the most likely cause.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
