Cancer of the stomach; a clinical study of 921 operatively and pathologically demonstrated cases . n andothers appeared to be not a distinct tj-pe, but ratherpartook of the nature of a group of bacteria having similarmorphological and cultural characteristics.

A full report of thework is not yet available. Let it suffice to say that theinformation of the greatest worth which we are able toderive from our studies was derived from bacilli frommahgnant gastric contents grown in two types of media,namely: (a) a medium made from extracting fresh, sterilemahgnant tissue that had been ground up in a sterilemeat grinder with a normal salt solution, and (h) a similar 212 CANCER OF THE STOMACH medium made from beef extract. We are prepared toofifer the following morphological observations. Characteristics of Bacilli of the Oppler-Boas Group.—The bacilh vary in length from 15 to 60 microns. The.
