Fig. 9 A. Probably a Type 2 infantile mastoid. At operation,a chronically infected antrum was found deeply situatedin dense bone. The possibility of sclerosis cannot beruled out here. Fig. 9 B. Normal mastoid, same case as Fig. 9 A. This mastoidis of the pure pneumatic type. with only a few cells near the tip and a fewback of the middle ear or only the latter.In the first instance we are dealing witha Type i infantile mastoid, and in thesecond instance with a Type 2. In suchcases, from an understanding of the patho-logical possibilities, it is desirable to adviseearly exploration of the mastoid antrum.This is a relatively simple operation, whichwill avoid the possible complications orthe possible transformation into a chronicinfection. The third type of infantile mastoid, inwhich there is a combination of dense wallwith scattered pneumatic cells (Fig. 7j,has all the dangers of the pneumatic typewith regard to spread of infection, and yetwith none of the safeguards that will bementione
