For a decade they have maintained a steady program of intense interest in this disease led by Drs. Stanley Aronson, Bruno Volk, and Abraham Saifer. A valuable series of personal contributions to the knowledge of this syndrome have resulted, but even more they have stimulated a widespread concern for these pediatric patients in the medical world generally.
