“…Brand and Jones (1952) in a review of 20 years' experience with 1,000 cases believed that in a young individual (under 20) the recurrence rate was between 60 and 70 per cent during the first 10 years after the initial attack. Their findings are in agreement with Roth and others (1937) who reported a recurrence rate of 68 per cent in 480 patients followed for an average period of 8 years. Nearly three quarters of all relapses occur within the first 3 years.…”
