title: [Documentation of mucous membrane changes in military gas (Lost) exposed patients].
abstract: Poison gases, such as "Lost" (bichloroethyl sulfide), which have been known since the first World war, and the use of mycotoxins can cause extremely grave alterations of the texture of the upper breathing and digestive system. These alterations are shown by photographs of three persons, and therapeutical measures are documented in a successive space of time. The significance of an early tracheotomy for a successful treatment is also mentioned.
