Book excerpt: Excerpt from Original Contributions of Louisiana to Medical Sciences: A Biographic Study It is physically utterly impossible for people engaged in the prosaic money-getting pursuits to realize, even faintly, the tremendous significance that the intellectuals - that is, those engaged in the sciences, literature and the arts, attach, to the word original. To have done something original, ever so little, is to them the supremest achievement. They feel as if by creating something new they are singled by the finger Of God from the common herd and lifted up by the great Creator himself, to be one of the anointed. Thousands of wretched deluded mortals have suffered eternal poverty in the mad hope to attain this goal, ever vanishing to so many of them like the mirage in the desert. Worse than all, many have in icted pitilessly the most cruel privations in that attempt, upon those they should love the most, their wives and children. The supreme and lofty contempt of the Often dirty, hirsute creatures, Oddly clad, shown by the ordinary money people is something stupendous. For some time past I have been devoting much time to the study of Original Contributions of America to Medical Sciences. I was exceedingly happy and proud to find that Louisiana, with twenty-nine original contributors comes on a par with the great old populous cultured city of' Boston which presents also twenty - nine original contributors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Original Contributions of Louisiana to Medical Science: A Bibliographic Study graphic Study. In a previous paper read December 15, 1915, before the Louisiana Historical Society the subject was considered biographically, i.e. gave specially an account of the lives of the contributors, whereas in this bibliographic study it is specially their writings and achievements that are described. All the contributors from Louisiana are from the City of New Orleans, except Dr. Prevost. Dr. Francois Prevost practiced in Donaldsonville. In 1830 (?)he performed the first Cesarian Section in America. He operated four times successfully losing but one mother and operating twice on the same woman. His claim is well established in a paper published by Dr. Robert P. Harris of Philadelphia, published in the New Orleans Medical and Surgical Journal, June, 1879, page 933. Dr. - Dubourg, (New Orleans) was the first to perform vaginal hysterectomy in America, if not in the world. (Statement of Professor E. S. Lewis of Tulane.) Dr. Charles Aloysius Luzenberg, 1805-1848, (New Orleans) first removed gangrenous bowel in hernia, and sutured the ends successfully. Dr. John Leonard Riddell, 1807-1865, (New Orleans) invented the binocular microscope. Dr. Warren Stone, 1808-1892, (New Orleans) was the first to resect a portion of rib to secure permanent drainage in cases of empyema. He was the first to apply a wire ligature to a human artery for aneurism. He applied it to the common iliac for an aneurism of the external iliac. He first cured a traumatic aneurism of the second portion of the subclavian artery by digital compression. Priority is also claimed by Dr. Jonathan Knight of New Haven, Conn. Digital compression is undoubtedly an American procedure. Dr. Charles Jean Faget, Sr., 1818-1884, (New Orleans) discovered the lack of correlation between the pulse and the temperature in yellow fever. While the temperature goes up the pulse goes down or remains stationary. It is pathognomonic of yellow fever. Dr. Tobias Gibson Richardson, 1827-1892, (New Orleans) was the first to amputate both legs at the hip joint at one time in the same subject, the patient recovering. He was the first to write an Anatomy in which English names were substituted for the Latin names. He was the first to use strong injections of nitrate of silver for cytitis. His wife's devotion to his memory caused her to contribute magnificent buildings on Tulane Campus devoted to medical education.
