LOUIS L. FRIEDMAN M.D., F.C.C.P.1; L. ORTON DAVENPORT M.D., F.C.C.P.1; and JOSEPH C. BOHORFOUSH M.D., F.C.C.P.1

1 The Jefferson County Tuberculosis Sanatorium, Birmingham, Alabama.

1) A statistical analysis of the results achieved with extrapleural pneumothorax over an eight year period has been presented and discussed.
