OF CANCER BY AL.
COHOL INFECTIONS.

AOilOuL IO4ND.
"Oyer twenty-five years ago Karl
Schwalbe, having obtained satisfactory
results from interstitial injections of
alcohol in the treatment of benign
growths, argued that il alcoholism
could give rise to the formation of new
connective tissue in the liver. and
thereby induce atrOphy of the paren-
chyma, including it's vascular supply
malignant tumOrs should yield to the
direct action OF alcohol in the same
manner Hasse, of Nordhausen, after
a careful analysis OF the whole ques-
tion, reached the conclusion that in
jections Of alcohol around the base of
the growth would suffice.
'IIis results verified the correctness
OF his views, and, Of eighteen cases OF
carcinoma Of the breast treated by him,
fifteen were cured, the three cases lost
being hOpelessly advanced when the
treatment was instituted Recently he
showed that the method insured radi-
cal results by reporting the histories
Of three cases treated in 1873 Although
nearly twenty years had elapsed up to
the date OF his paper, the persons treat

the growths was produced; but he as

were injected at one time, slOughing Of
the growth and general intoxlcat'on Of
the subject would follow With ordi-
nary caution, however, he was able to
avoid these untoward effects by inject
ing 10 to 20 minims into one side Of the
tumor. then as much In another place,
etc, this being continued until every
part OF the growth had become lnfil-
trated by the alcohol
Going a step further, we are
brought to a case reported by Edwin j..
Kuh, OF Chicago, the diagnosis Of which
was confirmed clinically by Sem, and
furthermore by a microscopical exami-
nation which allows OF no reasonable
doubt. The case was one of primary
cancer of the naso-pharynx. In view
Of the inevitable fatal outcome. injec-
tions of alcohol were begun on October
IA, 1886. with three minims OF abso-
lutte alcohol. the dose being rapidly in
creased to thirty minlms. The reduc-
ton in the size began after the seventh
injection, and after the eleventh but
| few remnants Of the growth remained
| After a dozen more injections tht
needle would not penetrate iato Tho
| tissues capable Of retaining the alco-
hol, and after few additional at
tempts, at intervals of a week q
longer, they were discontinued. II
February, 1897, the naso-pharynX was
found, both by inspection and paipa
ton, to be entirely free.
