Very good copy. ---- FIRST EDITION, AND EXCEPTIONALLY RARE, of Falloppio's treatise on head wounds. This work, which like most of his writings was printed posthumously, is a transcript of lectures given by Falloppio in Padua, where he held the chair of anatomy. It was edited for publication by Giovanni Bonacci. It takes the form of an exposition and commentary on relevant passages from Hippocrates dealing with cranial anatomy and various diseases and their cures. Falloppio was the first to describe many physical characteristics of the brain and made an important contribution to cranial surgery with his work, although he himself was not a trained surgeon. The publication is dedicated to the great Venetian printer Vincenzo Valgrisi. This work is rare and absent from many standard medical bibliographies. RBH only records one other copy at auction (Jeschke can Vliet, Berlin 2011, lot no. 47). Bibliography: Adams F-142.; Bruni Celli 1334 (with incorrect citation of the printer and erroneous collation); not in Norman, Waller, or Wellcome. - Visit our website to see more images!

"Fallopius was a clinician as well as an anatomist, and this treatise on diseases of the skin (ulcers and tumors) is one of the most complete of its kind up to the time of its publication. An interesting bibliographical point in this copy is the canceling of leaf 1 with a substitute leaf, but the cancelland was not removed, thus leaving both the original leaf and its substitute in place." (Heirs of Hippocrates). This first edition is rare. Only one copy has appeared at auction in the past 80 years (the Virchow copy, Christie's 2016). - Visit our website for additional images and information.

In this classic work on "the French disease," Fallopius wrote more knowingly of the Europe-wide scourge of syphilis than previous authors on the subject and was one of the first to oppose the use of mercury in its treatment. Antonio Fracanzano (d. 1567), a teacher of Fallopius at Padua and later his colleague there, contributed a short tract to this work on syphilis published in the year after Fallopius' death. (Heirs of Hippocrates, p.123). "He distinguished between syphilitic and non-syphilitic condylomata" (Garrison-Morton). Exceedingly rare, only two copies have been auctioned in the past 25 years. - Visit our website for additional images.
