Ch. N. Athanassiadis 1

1 The Hospital for Sick Children, Paris, Salonica, Greece

2. The results in the penicillin-treated group were not greatly superior to those in the control group and did not justify the high hopes that have been entertained for penicillin as a certain cure for osteomyelitis.
