The same may be said of various sub-stances used for the dissolving of fungus cancerous tissue. 10. Toxins. Much work has been done with the idea of developing a toxin orantitoxin or serum that would check the growth of malignant tumors, but so farnothing satisfactory has been created. Coleys toxin (made from a culture of thestreptococcus and the bacillus prodigiosus) has produced occasional beneficialeffects, principally in sarcoma.

But the results in carcinoma have not been suchas make its use worth while. Doyens cancer serum proved a failure. It is tobe hoped that the present wave of investigation into the causes of malignant dis-ease will produce something of real value. 686 MALIGNANT DISEASE OF THE UTERUS CARCINOMA OF THE CORPUS UTERI.
