Abstract
Diseases, like everything else, often fall out of favor and in time some well known to older generations of physicians are dropped entirely from contemporary textbooks. A sampling of diseases which have faded into oblivion is given below. Their names may evoke nostalgic remembrances especially among those of us who remember pediatric practice in the pre-antibiotic era.
