Prof. R. Luria. Syphilitische und syphilogene Magenerkrankungen (Gastrolues), 27 fig. in the text, pp. VI-194. Berlin, S. Karger. 1929

In his foreword, prof. R. A. Luria points to the enormous importance of syphilitic infection for the emergence of a number of diseases of internal organs. He notes the tremendous recent interest in visceral syphilis, as can be seen, by the way, in the recent work of Schlesinger, Grenet-Levent and Pellissier. The author has set himself the goal of critically examining all the data concerning gastric syphilis. Under this name, for the most part, they mean gummy processes in the walls of the stomach and their consequences, and thus ignore a number of more frequent syphilogenic diseases of the stomach, which are of clinical importance and can be combined under the general name gastrolues.
