Excerpt from The American Medical Times, Vol. 1: Being a Weekly Series of the New York Journal of Medicine; July to December, 1860 Gentlemen - In our last public visit you remember we examined several cases of syphilis, and that there was one patient to whom I called your attention for a moment, who wore a tube in his trachea. That case belongs to a very interesting class, which is, perhaps, too much neglect ed, and I have thought it worth our while to spend a few moments in studying its history, and the character of the affection of the larynx which rendered the insertion of the tube necessary. This affection is known by the name of syphilitic disease of the larynx. It is one of those forms of syphilis which, happily for humanity, is rare, but still it is not uncommon to find in a hospital of any size, one or two men as nurses, wearing these tubes. I remember very distinctly the case of a nurse in La Charit Hospital, of Paris, twenty years ago, who had worn the tube for a number of years.
