A new era in the surgical treatment of cancer by the transfusion of blood from dead persons is claimed by Professor S. S. Yudin, of Moscow. In an article in tiic Lancet he describes how blood from a man who had been dead for six hours, after a btls accident, was successfully given to an engineer who was dying from lsss of blood after attempting suicide. The patient recovered in two days. Experiments have been made of over 1000 transfusions of this type of blood.
