By conducting the salpingoscopic examinations of 47 patients suffering from diseases of the ear, the author investigated adenoids in Rosenmuller's fossa (R. fossa), various adhesions, and behaviors of Torus tubaris at the time of swallowing; and obtained the following results. In most of chidren adenoids at the angle observable with the salpingoscope appeared to cover up the entire length of Torus tubaris and in youngsters up to the age of 17 years adenoids appeared to cover up a portion of Torus tubaris or to be touching it. In adults over 18 years old as well as in old persons string-like, band-like, and sheet-like adhesions were observed mainly in the upper commissure, running parallel to Torus tubaris and bridging either at the posterior upper part or the posterior lower part. From these salpingoscopic examinations carried on the patients with aural diseases it has been clarified that adenoids in children and various adhesions in adults interfere with the backward and upward movements of Torus tubaris thus causing tubal stenosis.
