Blandin, Gaston. - Un médecin nantais sous la Terreur: Guillaume Laennec. (PDF 5603 Ko) Doctor Régent in the Hôtel-Dieu and Rector of the University in Nantes, Guillaume François Laennec, was favourable toward French Revolution at the beginning, trusting its promises of liberty and equality. Member ot the Nantes town council, he was a busy partaker. But against terror threatening, he wrote up himself, on 5 July 1793, an address from Nantes to the Convention, and that scathing blame got him suspected of "fédéralisme" and of counter-revolution. Medical officer and visitor in the prisons, he ever exerted himself for managing his hospital and aid numberless sick persons and prisoners. For all that; Guillaume François Laennec devote himself passionately with tenacity to initiate and teach medicine to his nephew René Théophile Laennec, the brilliant inventor of the stethoscope.

Hesse, Philippe-Jean. - Les hôpitaux de Nantes pendant la Révolution. (PDF 4870 Ko) The period of the French Revolution has been very difficult for the hospitals, specially in a town like Nantes with the economic crisis born of the international wars and the disorganization provoked by the civil wars. More and more people, soldiers, refugees, prisoners... must be received in the ancient hospitals - Hôtel-Dieu et Sanitat - or in those - military or not, carceral or not - created for the occasion. All this with a decreasing financial basis and the impact of political divisions. In spite of this critical situation, it must be noticed that the ten years - 1789-1799 - have seen many progresses. The medical - doctors, like Guillaume Laennec, surgeons like Darbefeuille - and pharmaceutical presence grows regularly, specially with the use of students; the tendency to specialize rooms or even hospitals, the exigency of a bed for each patient and of new hygienic rules have good effect by a diminution of contagion and the mortality is largely below that of previous periods. We begin to find also, with the affirmation of liberty, a new attitude in front of madness. Last, after 1797, with the new legislation, the town try to have a real policy and planning about hospitals which will permit later the creation of the Saint-Jacques Hospital. All this announced the 19th century and the medical revolution. Pour citer cet article Hesse, Philippe-Jean. - Les hôpitaux de Nantes pendant la Révolution.

Corroller, Joseph - Cuny, Jean. - L'enseignement de la médecine à Nantes sous la Révolution. (PDF 1970 Ko) The French Revolution, in 1789, had removed all the privileges, castes or corporations. A decree, dated 18 August 1792, had removed the universities, the faculties and all the scientific societies. Anyone had the right to practise as a doctor and a surgeon without any certificate or training. But, in Nantes, an order of the police enforced an old Edict of March 1707 that was still effective. The board of examiners was at once restored. Thanks to some doctors of the hospitals, the teaching of medicine has been regulary organized with examinations, and so, lived again amongst many difficulties. The official School of medicine, operated in the hospital of Hôtel-Dieu. Passing in Nantes in 1808, during the spanish war, Napoléon set up officially the Secondary School of Medicine of Nantes. Its director, Guillaume François Laennec pronounced solemnly the inaugural lesson. Pour citer cet article Corroller, Joseph - Cuny, Jean. - L'enseignement de la médecine à Nantes sous la Révolution.

Zins-Ritter, Marcel. - Laennec et l'enseignement des Vésanies. (PDF 2668 Ko) During the years 1823 and 1824, R.T.H. Laennec, who was Professor at the famous "Collège de France" in Paris, devoted his 8th lecture to insanity, named at this time "vésanies". He collected the knowledges of the antiques as well as works of his comtemporary psychiatrists (Pinel, Esquirol...) which mark the birth of this science. Due to his cultural background, Laennec, the inventor of mediate auscultation, was able to combine both sources to a comprehensive understanding of psychiatrics.

Valentin, Michel. - De Laennec à Chateaubriand. Un pamphlet royaliste anonyme de René-Théophile Laennec pendant les Cent-Jours. (PDF 2613 Ko) A little book of 45 pages starts up from an antiquariat's catalogue, with the title: About feudality, it is an anonymous royalist pamphlet printed in 1815 by "The Royal Press", during the "Hundred Days" of Napoleon's return, in Gand, where Louis the XVIIIth was seeking shelter. On the cover page is written a dedication: "To Mister Villenave", of a very recognizable fine writing if you read in the following pages three words of another hand: "By M. Laenec" (sic). For this pamphlet is truly from Laennec, we have seen another exemplary in the hands of one of his grand-nephew, with an authenticated dedication: "To M. de Miniac, from the author, R.T. Laennec". But reading once more this hasty and clear attack against the "Buonaparte's government" which was still omnipotent, in this book given by Laennec to Villenave, a waving journalist, we thought that we had already read those lines: in fact, it was in a later title written some weeks after the one of Laennec, in the "Report about the situation in France on the 12th of May 1815, presented to the King in his Council at Gand", by Chateaubriand! It is the singular comparison of the two documents written by the illustrious writer and the famous physician, united by friendship and political complicity, that we have in view in this paper.

Laharie, Muriel. - Comprendre et soigner la maladie mentale au Moyen Age (XIe-XIIIe siècles). (PDF 2894 Ko) In the Middle Ages (Xlth-XIIIth centuries), the mentally ill were considered by physicians and theologians either as people dominated by supernatural forces - particularly in the case of demoniac possession -, or as people suffering from unbalanced humours linked with psychological disorders. The four nosological entities distinguished in that period: frenzy, lethargy, mania and melancholy, reflect the continuity of mental illness through the ages. The insane were treated principally by sedative, antispasmodic and tonic medication, and also by purges, especially white hellebore; but blood-letting, hydrotherapy, surgery and relational treatment were also used, and it is therefore quite legitimate to speak in terms of "mediaeval psychiatry".

Sicard, André. - Emile Aron et la médecine en Touraine. (PDF 2398 Ko) The author writes a summing up of Emile Aron's book which is recalling medicine history in Touraine since christian era beginning to our times. Then, he gets a sharp look upon illustrious people whose names are in touch with the country: Léonard de Vinci, Ronsard, Descartes and, for a medical purpose, Dutrochet, Bretonneau and many others who are born inside the genuine french language berth nicknamed "health gardern", too.

Blanquet, Paul - Hoerni, Bernard - Plessis, Jean. - Jean-Alban Bergonié (1857-1925) médecin militaire. (PDF 2589 Ko) Jean-Alban Bergonié (1857-1925) is chiefly known in the history of medicine as a pioneer of radio-biology and radio-therapy. It is less known that during the war of 1914-18 he distinguished himself in the military sanitary service. He realized numerous military missions and invented an apparatus called "electro-vibrator" which proved itself very useful to locate enclosed metallic projectiles. He was also one of the first to take care of the reeducation of the war wounded. Victim of a cancerous degeneration due to a radio-dermitis, he had to undergo a desarticulation of the right arm. He founded in Bordeaux a pluridisciplinary anticancerous center (its first stone was laid on December 14th 1924). During the inauguration ceremony, Bergonié was raised at the dignity of "Grand Croix de la Légion d'honneur" (the highest award in the French Order). The present paper aims to remind that this great scientist who demonstrated his self-sacrifice was also an exemplary military physician.

Doury, Paul. - La grande maladie de Lyautey. (PDF 2744 Ko) In 1856 the future Marshall Lyautey underwent a serious accident. He was then 18 months old and fell from a balcony on the pavement. During the following months lumbar pains occurred and will require immobilization during several years with an evolution towards recovery without sequellae after over ten years. Lyautey has always called this affection his "great disease". After a critical study of the facts reported by Lyautey himself the author concludes that this "mysterious" disease having been miraculously cured was in fact a tuberculous spondylodiscitis, an ignored lumbar "Pott's disease" of the childhood of which the major traumatism has probably been the inducing or revealing factor.

Zelbstein, Uri. - La hache de Mayor ou la tachytomie chirurgicale. (PDF 2590 Ko) Tachytomie, the fast cutting, surgeons dream before anesthesia, a cutting reducing the operation time and consequently the pain. For Mayor it was a sure thing. And the hatchet? Had he used a hatchet or was it a simple legend, a myth? To answer is necessery to see again the why and the how of Mayor's "invention".
