Description
EARLY PLASTIC SURGERY, PERFORMED BY THE FOUNDER OF PLASTIC SURGERY DEDICATION COPY OF AN ILLUSTRATED CASE STUDY 8vo (20.6 x 13.4 cm), pp. 1-7, p. 8 (blank), (2) ff. of lithograph plates. Bound in modern burgundy diced pasteboards, gilt title label laid to spine, retains original blue paper front wrapper. Very minor rubbing to board edges. Final text leaf a bit toned, otherwise internally very well preserved.Rare dedication copy of an early illustrated offprint on plastic surgery. This study by Dr. Verhaeghe of Ostend describes a rhinoplasty operation carried out in July of 1845 or 1846 by the renowned Berlin physician Johann Friederich Dieffenbach (1792-1847), who was then in residence at Ostend. Dieffenbach, whose maxillofacial and rhinoplastic surgery techniques are considered to be the foundation of modern reconstructive surgery, used a segment of skin from the patient's forehead to reshape his nose. Lithograph illustrations here show the patient before the operation, and at 3 days, 20 days, and 3 months after the surgery.The present volume carries on its front wrapper a dedication inscription by Verhaeghe in which he pays 'hommage' to a Professor R�camier, likely the celebrated Paris gynecologist Joseph R�camier (1774-1852). R�camier would have known Verhaeghe and Dieffenbach not only from their important collaboration on strabismus (crossed-eye) operations, but also from their work in gynecology (ruptured female perinea).* J.
