A brief review is presented of the Danish medieval skeletons with leprosy changes, particularly in the skulls, where the pathologic specific changes found are termed facies leprosa. The clinical aspect of facies leprosa is termed Bergen Syndrome I (nasal leprosy) and Bergen Syndrome II (the leprogenic changes of the alveolar process of the maxilla superior with loosening and/or loss of the frontal incisors). An account is given of the interim result of a clinical examination of 333 inpatients at the Prapradaeng Leprosarium in Bangkok, Thailand. In the group of 258 patients with lepromatous leprosy, 62.4% presented Bergen Syndrome I and 16.3% Bergen Syndrome II. These proportions differ clearly from the corresponding ratio found in the Danish medieval skulls.
本文简要回顾了丹麦有麻风病变的中世纪骨骼,特别是颅骨,其中发现的病理特征性变化被称为麻风面容。麻风面容的临床方面被称为卑尔根综合征I(鼻麻风)和卑尔根综合征II(上颌牙槽突的麻风性改变伴上前牙松动和/或脱落)。文中介绍了对泰国曼谷普拉帕登麻风病院333名住院患者进行临床检查的中期结果。在258例瘤型麻风患者组中,62.4%表现为卑尔根综合征I,16.3%表现为卑尔根综合征II。这些比例与丹麦中世纪颅骨中发现的相应比例明显不同。
