No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
Extensive searches across multiple scholarly catalogs (including local catalogs, Google Books, Internet Archive, and OpenAlex) yielded no evidence of an English translation of Christoph Girtanner's 1789 'Treatise on the Venereal Disease'. Given Girtanner's historical context and the lack of any bibliographic record of an English edition, it is highly probable that no such translation exists.
