International Journal of Dermatology
|November 1, 1979
Abstract:
In an uncontrolled preliminary trial, metronidazole administered orally to 30 patients was effective in resoving tropical phagedenic ulcers within a period of one to two weeks. The efficacy of this drug indicates the important role played by fusospirochetes in causing tropical ulcers.
