Abstract
The objective of the paper is to discuss the actions to combat tuberculosis undertaken by Marcin Selzer (1876—1930), a medical doctor of a Jewish origin. Selzer worked in the National General Hospital in Lviv (today Lviv in Ukraine), and a sanatorium for TB patients in Hołosko and had also a private consultation room. He was engaged in the activities carried out by medical and aid societies, playing an active role in promoting the most recent methods of TB diagnosing and treatment. Doctor Selzer also had a contribution for the development of a sanatorium in Hołosko, improved a system of vacation trips for Jewish children and co-created a TB clinic for Jews in Lviv.
