Abstract

Klee and Hofmann (Monat, f. Geb. u. Gyn., Bd. LXH) found that retroplacental blood in women in labor is quite suitable for producing Wassermann's reaction with it. However, the authors consider a positive result of a reaction with this blood insufficient for the diagnosis of syphilis — it should only arouse suspicions about the presence of lues, the diagnosis of which should be verified in such cases by all other means.
