Couverture rigide. Condition: Très bon. Edition originale. In-12, (8) ff. (dont frontispice), 800 pp., (12) ff., 4 planches ; vélin de l'époque, dos fendillé, griffure sur le plat inférieur, tranches rouges, très bon état intérieur, d'une grande fraîcheur. Première édition des oeuvres complètes de l'auteur ; l'éditeur, van Horne, l'a enrichi de notes et de planches, de belle qualité. On y trouve en particulier les textes suivants : - Observationes anatomicae, comportant la description de trois structures anatomiques auxquelles le nom de Botal est attaché (éponymes) : foramen ovale, ductus arteriosus (canal artériel) et ligamentum arteriosum (ligament artériel) « Perhaps because a too superficial interpretation of Botallo's text, his name became attached to certain anatomical structures of the heart already described before him. In his 1660 edition of the Opera Omnia, van Horne inserted Botallo's short version but also a long footnote and an illustration, probably his own, of the heart [?] Botallo seems have been the first to describe a persistent foramen ovale after birth." (Franson) - De catarrho commentarius, avec la première description de la rhinite allergique saisonnière (« rhume des foins ») - De curandis vulneribus, « traité complet médico-chirurgical plein de judicieux préceptes, fort bien écrit. » (Delorme). Botal condamne les idées de brûlures et d'envenimement des plaies. « Ses appareils immobilisants sont parfaits » (Delorme). Les chapitres sur les plaies crâniennes et les plaies thoraciques renferment de bons préceptes. Léonard Botalli, né à Asti (Piémont) étudia la médecine à Pavie, où il fut l'élève de Fallope. Il vint en France, où il devint le médecin de Charles IX, du duc d'Alençon, puis de Henri III. Garrison & Morton, 802.1 ; Heirs of Hippocrates, 352 ; S.G. Fransson. The Botallo mystery. Clin.
