Thirty cases with bacterial infections in otorhyrolaryngological field were treated with Kanendomycin injection, and satisfactory results were obtained.
(1) 23 males and 7 females ranging in age from 16 to 72 were included in this study, and given 400 mg of Kanendomycin a day for 2 to 14 injections.
(2) The patients consisted of 17 with otic infections, 4 with nasal infections, 8 with pharyngolaryngological infections, and one with oesophagitis.
(3) Clinical results of Kanendomycin therapy were excellent in 3 (10%), good in 18 (60%), fair in 6 (20%), and ineffective in 3 (10%).
(4) Clinical responses of Kanendomycin were generally rapid in the effective cases and the patients followed favourable progress in a short duration of therapy. In the treatment of chronic cases, however, 6 or 7 injections at least seem to be necessary before its effectiveness can be evaluated.
(5) No subjective or objective symptoms due to disturbance of auditory or vestibular functions were observed in this study.
