Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book by a renowned 19th-century medical doctor explores the late manifestations of syphilisâ"known then as constitutional syphilis. Building on earlier work by Jean Louis Petit and Ricord, the author argues that the syphilitic nature of certain symptoms can be determined not just by their timing but also by their physiological and anatomical characteristics. These late manifestations, he says, cannot be explained as the result of mercury treatment, as some then believed, because they can occur in patients who have never received this treatment. The author presents his own research alongside that of his contemporaries and predecessors, and examines the differences between secondary and tertiary symptoms, arguing that while some secondary symptoms are contagious, all tertiary symptoms are not. The author also discusses which symptoms belong to each stage and which organs are most commonly affected, examining in detail the alterations of bone, joints, muscles, internal organs, and the brain caused by syphilis. His work helped to establish the pathology of this disease and contributed to the understanding and treatment of late syphilis. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
