Abstract

The author reports that out of 319 tuberculous mothers of his material, 36 died of severe forms of tbc in the first 10 days after delivery, noting also the tendency of patients with severe forms of tbc to have abortions and premature births. Having examined six children born prematurely of tbc mothers, in 3 of them he found tbc bacilli directly in the glands; from the others by inoculation of juice from the organs a bacillus was isolated which was badly stained by Ziehl's and caused no specific changes.
