摘要
麻风反应是麻风最常见的合并症,是导致畸残的主因,重视对麻风反应的研究实属必要。我们随机选择108例麻风患者,其中用MDT的31例,单用DDS的77例。MDT组均为1986年4月后的初治病人,每月在门诊接受治疗,无中断者。DDS组为1971年后确诊入村治疗。
A comparison of using MDT with DDS monotherapy showed that the frequence of leprosy reaction have no difference between both the groups,but the duration of the reaction was shorter in MDT group. In view of the fact that there were still occurrences of the reaction and new deformity in seven out of 31 cases two years after MDT,the authors suggest either to elongate the period of taking MDT or to combine prednison with MDT in the first six months of treatment for those who showed a tendency to suffer from the reaction so as to prevent disability.
