In order to examine the hypothesis that the sensation of a lump in the throat is mainly caused by local inflammatory changes and consequently elicits emotional or psychological disturbances, a statistical survey was conducted on 1000 of elder subjects than 60 years of age. The results obtained are as follows:1. Of the 1000 subjects, 137 (13.7%) experienced the sensation of a lump in the throat in the past.2. There was no significant correlation between the history of any specific disease and the experience of the sensation of lump in the throat, except that female subjects with respiratory tract diseases experienced the sensation with significantly (p<0.05) higher rate (31.3%) than those without the disease (16.5%).3. According to the result of self-evaluation, 46.7% of the 137 subjects appreciated themselves as nervous. The rate was higher than that (38.7%) obtained from the subjects without the experience but the difference is statistically insignificant.4. Among the 137 subjects, 38 (27.7%) had a history of habitual tonsillitits in their childhood and 69 (50.9%) reported to have recurrent pharyngoaryngitis. Both rates were significantly higher (p<0.005) than those obtained from the subjects with no experience of the sensation of a lump in the throat.The results of the present survey seem to suggest that the sensation of the lump in the throat is caused by local inflammatory changes. As the sensation progresses, apprehension and subsequent cancerphobia may develop.
