Abstract
The year 1933 marked the 20th anniversary of Baer's introduction of the method of paraffin filling in the treatment of cavernous forms of pulmonary tuberculosis (tbc). The theoretical basis for his method was the observation that in a number of cases, when the acute period of tbc has already passed, the temperature is long normal, the phenomena of intoxication have disappeared and the patient has passed into the stationary phase of the quiescent process with restoration of ability to work and seeming clinical recovery, he remains the carrier of an apical or subclavian cavern.
