INFECTIOUS CROUP: I. ETIOLOGY

[摘要] Acute infectious croup can be divided into three etiologic categories; namely, diphtheritic croup, H. influenzae type B croup, and so-called "virus" croup. The clinical divisions of this disease, i.e., laryngitis, laryngotracheitis, and laryngotracheopneumonitis, are of prognostic value, but have no etiologic significance.
