Abstract |
In order to establish preoperative tests for Pustulosis palmaris et plantaris due to focal tonsillar infections, a provocation test using ultra-short wave radiation and a negation tests with Impletol solution were investigated. It was subsequently found that the radiation test did not correspond to the therapeutic effects of tonsillectomy on cutaneous lesions, in contrast to the Impletol test. A potentiated dosage of 5 ml Impletol solution was injected submucosally about each palatine tonsil in addition to a conventional 1cc dose (usually injected into the upper pole of each tonsil), and the effects on cutaneous lesions were then examined. In an attempt to define objectively these latter results, both hematologic and serologic tests were obtained, but these failed to show any significant differences in those patients tested.
