title: Barlow's disease.
abstract: The classical form of Barlow's disease or infantile scurvy, with bruises, broken bones and sores that will not heal, is rarely seen today, but it seems to be reappearing under a different guise, when infants with borderline vitamin C depletion are assaulted with too many inoculations at one time.Moreover, it is now sometimes mistakenly diagnosed as child abuse.
