Upper respiratory tract scleroma in the Urals

The appearance of scleroma in an area that has so far been considered free of this disease and was not among the registered foci, forces us to pay the most serious attention to the study of the issue of scleroma. This is important and valuable, mainly because here we must pay special attention to the prevention of the disease/ since we still do not have radical therapy for scleroma. This is what our highly respected heads of clinics (Cytovich) say; we know this by observing patients after their apparent cure in our centers-special institutions in Moscow and Leningrad. Finally, the relevance of this issue is indicated by the establishment at the International Congress of Otorhinolaryngologists in Copenhagen (1929) of the International Committee for the Study of Rhinoscleroma.
