First edition.
Leroy D'Etiolles is considered to be the inventor of the lithotripter, a surgical instrument whose function is lithotripsy. Lithotripsy is the act of reducing urinary stones directly into the bladder rather than opening the bladder to extract them, which was much less invasive for the patient. This principle is still used today.

The book traces the history of lithotripter, how the instruments were gradually improved by the various doctors of the time. Many diagrams in the text of the instrumentation and the difficulties encountered in their manufacture.

The last part of the book discusses the dissolution of urinary stones by vichy water.

First edition.
"Amussat was a prominent French general surgeon of the nineteenth century who taught and practiced in Paris. Although his surgical interests were varied, he concentrated on surgery of the bladder, prostate, and abdominal viscera. He won prizes for his contributions to lithotripsy, torsion of arteries, air embolus, and what was then called "artificial anus" (colostomy). Extraperitoneal colostomy in the lumbar region for imperforate anus had been suggested some years earlier, and in this work Amussat reports on his success in adapting the method to the treatment of malignancies of the lower bowel and rectum where obstruction existed. His method of lumbar colostomy was popular until later in the century when anterior transperitoneal colostomy became the preferred method. Amussat devotes a considerable portion of the book to excerpts from earlier writers on the subject and includes his reflections on their writings". (Heirs)
"In 1839 Amussat performed the first lumbar colostomy for obstruction of the colon ("Amussat's operation"). His work established lumbar colostomy as the method of choice" (Garrison).

Manuscript proposing one of the first directories of homeopathic medicines in the French language through a translation of the work by Georg Adolph Weber: "Systematische Darstellung der reinen Arzneiwirkungen aller bisher geprüften Symptome" published in German in 1831.
The work will not be published in French only in 1833 with a translation by the Swiss homeopath Peschier under the title "Systematic exposition of the pure pathogenetic effects of all the remedies put to date in experience" (Geneva, Cherbuliez, 1833).
Our manuscript uses the same two-part structure as the German edition and should probably precede the French edition. The binding is typical of the 1830s, we are thus at the very beginning of the development of homeopathy in Europe under the impetus of the German school directed by Hannemahn (1755-1843) of whom Weber was a disciple.
It is in Switzerland and in Lyon that homeopathy in French language develops, Count Sébastien Des Guidi creates in 1830 the Homeopathic Society Lyonnaise and opens its consultations, there are 5 or 6 homeopaths in France in 1832 then 25 in 1833, 52 in 1835. (Cf. Bariety, "The beginnings of homeopathy in France", 1969)

Witness to the beginnings of homeopathy in France.
