Treatment. 219 



Treatment. Pecliculated tumors and those not having a 

 broad base may be crushed or cut off after ligation of the 

 pedicle with instruments introduced through the mouth. A 

 preliminary tracheotomy is however usually necessary. Iodide 

 of potash often proves of no value in the treatment of actinomy- 

 cotic tumors of the pharynx. (Details about the operative 

 treatment of pharyngeal tumors may be found in the publica- 

 tions of Morkeberg.)
