[Comparison of treatment with griseofulvin, beta blockers and calcitonin in 55 cases of post-traumatic algoneurodystrophies].
A comparative study of three treatments of reflex sympathetic dystrophy (selected at random) was carried out on 55 cases : 20 patients were treated with calcitonin, 19 with beta-blocking agents, and 16 with griseofulvin. The delay in drug effect seems similar for the 3 drugs but griseofulvin is associated with a greater failure rate. The beta-blocking agents and calcitonin gave comparable results. beta-Blocking agents appear to obtain better results than other 2 treatments in patients with a psychological component to their disease.

Onychomycosis of the feet; treatment with griseofulvin.
Griseofulvin, a new orally administered antifungal antibiotic which has proved to be effective for the treatment of a wide variety of superficial fungus infections of man, was used in the treatment of 51 patients with infections of the toenails due to T. rubrum. Thirty-four of the patients were treated with griseofulvin alone and seven were treated with griseofulvin combined with surgical avulsion of all involved toenails. The remaining ten had bilateral infections, and avulsion was done on one foot but not the other before griseofulvin therapy was begun. Of 34 patients who were treated with griseofulvin alone, few had complete cure even after prolonged treatment. Some nails showed improvement for a time, then no further gain; some showed no improvement; some showed resistant wedges of infection which penetrated proximally toward the posterior nail fold.In the instances of surgical avulsion, clinically normal nails regrew during griseofulvin therapy. This simple procedure, with thorough removal of all underlying keratinous debris, apparently did away with foci of possible reinfection. The results of the study indicated that surgical avulsion of the toenails in combination with griseofulvin therapy is an effective and practical method of treating onychomycosis of the toenails due to T. rubrum.
