Sachs-Georgi reaction at the site

Abstract

One of the difficulties in the work of a district doctor is the impossibility, for a number of reasons, to use even such laboratory research data, which, in the conditions of large city medical institutions, are an integral part of a patient's clinical examination. Forced, therefore, when making a diagnosis and subsequent treatment based solely on the existing picture of the disease and anamnesis, the district doctor is thus pushed back decades ago from his urban colleagues, who have the opportunity to use in their daily work many of the most valuable achievements of scientific medicine of the last decades requiring an appropriate laboratory environment. One such achievement is undoubtedly Wassermann's reaction, without which every doctor working in the countryside often has to spend a lot of work and try out methods of treatment before establishing the true etiology of the suffering he is using. The presence of such cases in district practice is all the more inevitable because, as can be judged on the basis of the literature, typical exvisit forms of syphilis in recent years have begun to occur much less frequently, giving way to various manifestations of visceral lues.
