Mercury patch for the treatment of chronic leg ulcers

Abstract

The treatment of chronic leg ulcers is a difficult task for the treating physician, surgeon and dermatologist. Such ulcers have been treated in a variety of ways, ranging from a variety of conservative dressings to radical surgical measures. Physiotherapists suggest physiotherapy methods; radiographers — x-rays; bacteriologists — with vaccines, antivirus, and neuropathologists — with nerve cutting. We did not make comparative observations on different methods of treating leg ulcers and had the task of studying and testing only the method of treatment with mercury plaster, proposed at one time by the French surgeon Chassenyak.
