The proportion of peripheral blood lymphocytes with receptors for the Fc fragments of IgG (Tg) was investigated in 25 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, in 25 patients with basal cell carcinoma of the skin and in 33 controls. In patients with squamous cell carcinoma the results showed elevated values for Tg lymphocytes and a negative correlation between these T cells and the lymphocyte response to PHA . In patients with basal cell carcinoma the values for Tg lymphocytes were normal.
