    8°. SS. 117-124. OBr. (Gebrauchsspuren). Alexander Isaak Cemach (Raseiniai 1882 - 1958 London) war ein russisch-österreichisch-britischer Mediziner und Hochschullehrer, der sich auf Hals-Nasen-Ohren-Heilkunde spezialisiert hatte. Er galt als Experte insbesondere für Kehlkopferkrankungen und für die seltene Mittelohrtuberkulose. Im Zuge des Anschlusses Österreichs an das nationalsozialistische Deutsche Reich emigrierte er 1938 vor der rassischen Verfolgung in das Vereinigte Königreich, wo er ebenfalls als Arzt praktizierte. Nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges kehrte er 1947 nach Wien zurück. Ab 1948 gehörte er dem Lehrkörper der Universität Wien an und im darauffolgenden Jahr 1949 habilitierte er sich dort im Fach Hals-Nasen-Ohren-Heilkunde und wurde zum Privatdozenten ernannt. Ebenfalls 1949 übernahm er die Leitung der kassenärztlichen ambulatorischen Fachstation in der Strohgasse (Gemeindebezirk Landstraße) und begann eine Tätigkeit als Konsiliararzt an der Lungenheilstätte auf der Baumgartner Höhe.- Alfred Kestenbaum (18901961), ab 1938 verfolgt aufgrund seiner jüdischer Herkunft, gelang die Flucht in die USA, wo er 1961 in New York verstarb. - "Dr. Alfred Kestenbaum of 910 Riverside Drive, an ophthalmologist with an office at 470 Park Avenue, died yesterday in Monroe, N. Y., where he was on a visit. He was 71 years old. Dr. Kestenbaum developed new diagnostic, therapeutic and surgical procedures in neuro-ophthalmology, including a new surgical treatment of nystagmus (involuntary oscillation of the eyeballs), and methods for improving the vision of the technically blind, through micro-lenses. He had served as associate clinical professor of ophthalmology at New York University and as head of the neuro-ophthalmological service at New York Eye and Ear Infirmary. A native of Vienna, he received his M. D. at the University of Vienna in 1913. He subsequently served there at the Neuro-Psychiatric Institute and as a teacher of neuro-ophthalmology. After coming to this country in 1939, he established himself in practice here. He had been an associate in his specialty at University, Bellevue and Goldwater Memorial Hospitals [.] Dr. Kestenbaum was a former president of the Clinical Society of Ophthalmology in New York, and at his death was president of the Manhattan Ophthalmological Society. He also belonged to the American Academy of Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology. An ardent Zionist, Dr. Kestenbaum was a former president of the Jacob Ehrlich Society and the Liberty Lodge of B'nai B'rith" (NYT).
