About This Item
Norman 1275; Osler 3152; Cushing, L 32; NLM/Blake 254; Wellcome III, p.441; Garrison-Morton 2973. RARE FIRST EDITION of a posthumously published work on cardiac pathology - a continuation of Lancisi's study on the movement of the heart and aneurysms, started with his earlier book on sudden death, De subitaneis mortibus libri duo (1707). In the present work Lancisi showed that many heart lesions were syphilitic in nature and gave the first clinical description of syphilis of the heart. He noted the frequency of cardiac aneurism and demonstrated the importance of syphilis, asthma, palpitations, violent emotions and excess as causes. Based upon his own experiments, Lancisi also reported that mercury injected into the coronary arteries shows up in the chambers of the heart, which led him to speculate that the injected material escaped through venous channels. With Vieussens Lancisi shares the honour of laying foundation of the pathology of heart disease. - Visit our website for additional images and information.
