[Müller-Harbitz disease--familial hypercholesterolemia].

The first patients with xanthomatosis and cardiovascular disease were described in end of the 18th century. From 1925 to 1938, the Norwegian pathologist Francis Harbitz (1867-1950) published several reports on sudden death and xanthomatosis. Harbitz called attention to certain peculiarities of the xanthomatosis. Microscopically he found that the so-called foam cells are more marked and more characteristic than in senile arteriosclerosis. Carl Müller's (1886-1983) attention was directed to this form of cardiovascular disease by the publications of Harbitz. Based on his own studies of 17 families in Oslo over a short period from 1936, he published his final report in 1939. He described hereditary heart disease due to xanthomatosis and hypercholesterolaemia to be fairly common. It was demonstrated to be a dominant trait in the families. Hypercholesterolaemia was present, most marked in connection with xanthoma tuberosus, but there was no definitive relationship between hypercholesterolaemia and xanthomatous deposits in the skin. The occurrence of heart disease in families should direct attention to this disorder. Carl Müller postulated that causal and prophylactic treatment might prove to be of value, but more than 50 years passed before this was possible in the disorder that is now called familial hypercholesterolaemia.

[François Gigot de La Peyronie(1678-1747), benefactor of surgery and supporter of the fusion of medicine and surgery, and the disease that bears his name].

François Gigot de La Peyronie, first surgeon to Louis XV, definitively distinguished surgeons from the company of barbers and, by giving them a charter, placed them on an equal footing with physicians. The creation of Académie Royale de Chirurgie, in 1731, that LAPEYRONIE, presided for 11 years, put an end to the intolerable supremacy of medicine over surgery and contributed to the promotion of surgery. In 1743, he was the first to give a valid description of the disease that bears his name.

A famous Turkish dermatologist, Dr. Hulusi Behçet.

Dr. Hulusi Behçet (1889-1948) is a famous Turkish dermatologist. He was born in Istanbul on February 20, 1889. His father was Ahmet Behçet and his mother Ayqse Behçet was also Ahmet's cousin. After the Turkish Republic was established and the "Family Name Law" was accepted, his father Ahmet Behçet, who was among the friends of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of Turkish Republic, received private permission to use his father's name Behçet. Dr. Hulusi Behçet pursued his education at Gülhane Military Medical Academy. After he had become a medical doctor, he specialized in dermatology and venereal disease at Gülhane Military Medical Academy and he completed his specialization in 1914. His first observations on Behçet's Disease started with a patient he met between 1924-1925. Dr. Behçet followed the symptoms of three patients whom he had had for years, then he decided that they were the symptoms of a new disease (1936). He published these cases in the Archives of Dermatology and Veneral Disease. He died from a sudden heart attack on March 8, 1948. Today, this disease is universally called Behçet's Disease in medical literature.
