A 3 year and 4 months old girl was admitted on June 22, 1967, with a chief complaint of massive pharyngeal bleeding. It was gradually developed following direct trauma by a piece of wood on the right peritonsillar area about 10 days prior to admission. She was treated with conservative measure for continuous bleeding, but it was resulted in extremely poor general condition. Fortunately the pharyngeal bleeding was gradually ceased, and she was able to discharge in slightly improved general condition. About one and half months later, she came in the hospital again with complaints of pharyngeal bleeding, unconsciousness and flaccid hemiplegia of the left side of the body. On Sept. 7, 1967, a piece of the wood was removed accidentally from the upper pole of the Rt. palatine tonsil and circulatory disturbance of the right internal carotid artery was detected by angiography. Thereafter left flaccid hemiplegia recovered with no recurrence of pharyngeal bleeding. Patient discharged on Oct. 4, 1967, in good general condition.
