Sputum specimens from 110 patients with known diagnoses were examined. Papa- micolaon stain smears were made and squamous epithelial cells, ciliated epithelial cells, aveolar epithelial cells, leucocytes, elastic filbers and others were studied. In general, the cells appeared in the sputum seemed to have some relations to ana- tomical location of the diseased areas. In the pharyngo-laryngeal diseases, many flat cells were found and the other cells were scanty. In the tracheo-bronchial and pulmonary diseases, the differentiation was relatively difficult, and elasticfibers were seen in 62% in the later group but not in the former group. It might be said that the cytological examinatin of the sputum should be used as a useful method in the diagnosis of diseases of the respiratory tracts.
