 Mukuno and Sueyoshi repopt 2 cases of post-diphtheritic paralysis that involved the nerve supplying the soft palate. In these cases it was found that, concurrently with the onset of paralysis, the bacterial culture that was rendered negative after the initial infection again became positive. From this fact the authors assumed that, in cases where recurrence of infection or paralysis after aninterval of apparent cure occu, irnfectious focus to be lying in the tonsillar crypts from whence the bacteria may again flourish or the accumulated toxin may cause involvement of a nerve or nerves; there appear to be atspecial affinity between nerve fibers and diphtheria toxin. Conseauently, for treatment of post-diphtheritic paralysis a measure should be taken that would be directed towards elimination of foci harboring the bacteria which would, at thr same time, purport to be an important step towards prevention of such involvements.
