In May of 1946 abdominal typhoid injection was given to the pupils of a public school in Hyogo Prefecture. The inoculated tuberculosis of human type was present on the injected areas of 102 children.
One of the three persons who gave injections had open tuberculosis and the other two were healthy. Diseased pupils received injection from either one of the three.
The injected area of the upper part of the arm began to show induration. Nearly half of the diseased were found about a month after the injection. Most of the indurations were operated, and treatments took at least a month, some of the. cases requiring a few months before recovery. None of the patients showed an acute skin ulcer so called Koch-phenomenon.
All of the axillary lymphatic gland of the affected 'persons had swollen. Extract operations were performed in 83 cases. in some cases natural recovery was seen for a while, but after two years these swellings became palpable again.
