    Author: Yesudian P, Thambiah AS.
    Journal: Int J Dermatol; 1979 Nov; 18(9):755-7. PubMed ID: 511439.
    Abstract:
    In an uncontrolled preliminary trial, metronidazole administered orally to 30 patients was effective in resoving tropical phagedenic ulcers within a period of one to two weeks. The efficacy of this drug indicates the important role played by fusospirochetes in causing tropical ulcers.
