The influencae of the ultr-short-wave stimulation upon the liver function was observed in 19 patients with chronic tonsillitis accompanied with dysfunction of the liver. After the iradiation of ultra-short-waves to both tonsillar regions for 5 minutes in 9 cases and for 15 minutes in 10 cases, liver function was examined for 36 hours following to the irradiation by means of sublimate test, BSP-test, estination of urobilinogen and hippuric acid test. The control group was :also studied. The majority of the cases showed very little changes and there was no difference from the control group. Apparently positive reactions was observed in the sublimate test and urobilinogen content in one case which had. received the irradiation for 5 minutes. Positive urobilinogen content was seen in one case in the subject group and control group respectively after 15 minutes of irradi- ation. Homever these positive reactions in the 3 cases were within the normal limits. Since the positiyel reaction was seen in control group, it was considered that the provocative stimulation to the tonsils in the cases with liver disease was less significant than in other tonsillar secondary diseases.
