Dal Santo^^^) studied in our laboratory the change in the rate of the replacement of iron atoms in the plasma of neoplastic patients. The sub- jects investigated were 23 patients of Dr. Kottmeyer, the director of the gynaecological department of the Radiumhemmet in Stockholm, all suffering from cancer of the uterine cervix in the first, second and third stage of development. As seen from Fig. 6 ^^Fe and thus all iron atoms present leave the plasma in most cases at a markedly enhanced rate. As however the iron content of the plasma of the subjects investi- g ated was in most cases markedly lower than in normals, the mg n iron.
