Abstract

The author answers this question in the negative. His view is based on observations over 289 patients in whom 20% achieved, with sufficiently long spa treatment, a lasting recovery. In particular, he emphasizes that the mountain air has a particularly favorable effect when surgical local treatment of the larynx is necessary.
