Known in antiquity to such physicians as Hippocrates and Galen, Noma was once reported around the world, including Europe and the United States. With the improvement in hygiene and nutrition, noma has disappeared from industrialized countries since the 20th Century, except during World War II when it was endemic to Auschwitz (in the section where the Nazis interned Gypsies) and Belsen. The disease and treatments were studied by Berthold Epstein, a Czech inmate physician directed to do by Josef Mengele.
