RESULTSOn November 23, 1949, forty days after the pre-ganglionic and fourteen days after the post-ganglionic sympathectomy, 0.5 cc. 1: 1000 adrenalin was injected subcutaneously. A drop in surface temperature was noted in both hands; al-though it was slightly more marked, with a subsequent rise above the initial level, on the pre-ganglionic side, the drop was more rapid and prolonged on the post-ganglionic side (fig. 1). Seventeen days later, on December 9, 1949, a similar test was performed, with no lowering of the surface temperature on the pre-ganglionic side, and with a slight drop of short duration and a definite rise above the initial temperature subsequently on the post-ganglionic side (fig. 2). In both of these tests, the initial temperature before adrenalin was higher on the post-ganglionic side. Fifty-nine days after the pre-ganglionic and thirty-three days after the post-ganglionic sympathectomy on December 1l, 1949, subcutaneous in-jection of the same amount of adrenalin was done. The initial temperature was the same bilaterally, and it was lowered on both sides after adrenalin. On the post-ganglionic side, the drop in temperature was more marked and more rapid, but the rise to almost the initial level was at a similar rate bilaterally (fig. 3).
