A preliminary report. a241-40 v103 a
The use of adhesive tape as wound treatment in leprosy cases is described and found to be superior to the classical dressing as regards security and facility of application, and for the rapidity and quality of healing. Its use as a "preventive" treatment is stressed. The results of this study seem to justify the following conclusions: The adhesive tape is easy to handle, it heals the leprosy wounds in about half the time necessary for the classical dressing and it costs about 50 times less.
