When examining the upper respiratory tract and ears of leprosy patients, Dr. Luboschitz found lesions in these sections in almost all cases. The mucosa of the respiratory tract was always retracted into the process - there were similar to skin leprosy nodules on it. Sensitivity of mucosa was considerably decreased, no pharyngeal reflex was observed. On the ear side, there was a shortening of bone and air conduction.
