Synopsis

This book offers a historical account of Syphilis, a notorious disease which swept across Europe from 1493 onwards, leaving no society untouched. After centuries of scientific silence on the topic, surgical approaches to the disease became the foco of investigation, as surgeons sought to understand the many ways in which Syphilis impacted the human body. The author, an experienced surgeon, provides a comprehensive overview of the surgical treatment of Syphilis, including an evocative account of the tools and techniques employed throughout history. The authoritative writing style combines with vivid illustrations to make this an ideal resource for medical professionals, students, and historians alike, offering both a comprehensive overview of Syphilitic surgery and a fascinating insight into the history of the disease itself.
