_B. ente riditis, Gartner was obtained on culture. This organism was got in various
-.situatio n on the head, neck and back from immature pustules such as had not gone
on to visible suppuration. It is hardly likely therefore that its presence in the
pustules was purely accidental and without significance. It was often associated with
an atypical Staphylococcus albus.
Case No. 13.—This was a very severe case. The patient had come to Madras
and underwent an operation for a condition of the eye requiring enucleation. Shortly
afterwards serious kidney trouble set in. The urine contained much pus, and. there
were temporary obstructions to the flow from the kidney resulting in a
hydronephrotic condition. This occurred on either side alternately and the patient's con-
dition was most serious. On examining the urine an organism strongly resembling
the pneumococcus was observed.. An almost pure growth of this was obtained
on hydrocele fluid agar, but its cultural reactions were different from those of the
pneumococcus. A vaccine was prepared. Meanwhile the symptoms had ameliorated
under suitable local and medical treatment, but the suppuration and fever still
continued. Under vaccine treatment the case rapidly improved and was shortly
afterwards discharged cured.
Case No. 16.—This was a case of chronic catarrh of the frontal sinuses,
of six years' duration, and associated with severe attacks of neuralgia. There was
. an almost constant clear watery discharge from the nose, from which an almost
pure culture of Streptococcus brevis was obtained. After a few injections of vaccine
prepared from this organism the discharge disappeared and when last heard of the
patient was to all intents and purposes cured.
Stock vaccines.—Naturally only well recognised conditions of common occur-
rence were treated with these vaccines. The most interesting results were got in
the chronic sequelæ of gonorrhœa. After a case of epididymitis of three years'
duration had undergone a month's vaccine treatment, it was impossible to tell, on
palpation, which testicle had been affected.
