Abstract

The mechanisms of activity of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, antibiotic therapy and surgery in hansenic neuritis are presented. The clinical, bacteriological and pathological pictures of the different types, varieties and stages of neuritis are described and should serve as a guide for the institution of the appropriate therapeutical measures.
