Open publisher page 30 citations
Abstract
The structural and functional peculiarities of the middle ear, taken from various species of birds, have been studied on 80 preparations. The results of a morphological and functional study of the avian middle ear have been compared to the anatomy and physiology of the human ear in its normal status as well as after tympanoplasty. An analogous model of the avian tympanic apparatus has been designed.
