| description | "Laryngotracheobronchitis" is a relatively recent term for infective upper airway disease (Baum, 1924). Prior to this "croup" was used by both public and profession to describe a train of laryngeal symptoms which sometimes were due to infection. The word derives from the Anglosaxon "kropan" (Neffson and Wishik, 1934a) or "hreopan" (MacKenzie,
1880) and although used earlier by Blair (MacKenzie, 1880; Eisner, 1959), was popularised in 1765 by the Scottish physician Home (Cormack, 18750). Both used the term in descriptions of what was probably diphtheria. |
