Abstract
A single dose of conventional superficial x-rays resulting in temporary epilation has been found to be an effective treatment for chronic hidradenitis suppurative of the axillae. Five cases are described in which this technique was used. Other techniques of x-ray therapy of this disease are tabulated. The method of therapy employed was so effective that surgical excision was avoided.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
