Alfons Edler von Rosthorn (September 19, 1857 - August 9, 1909) was an Austrian gynecologist who was native of Oed, a village that is located in the district of Wiener Neustadt-Land. In 1885 he earned his doctorate from the University of Vienna, where he studied zoology and medicine, and was a student of surgeon Theodor Billroth (1829-1894). Afterwards, he became an assistant to Rudolf Chrobak (1843-1910) at the second university ''Frauenklinik'' in Vienna. In 1891 he was habilitated for gynecology and obstetrics, and in 1894 became a full professor of OB/GYN at the University of Prague. Later, he was a professor at the Universities of Graz (from 1899), Heidelberg (from 1902) and Vienna (from 1908). Rosthorn was the author of numerous works involving gynecological disorders. His better known publications were a treatise on pelvic tissue diseases called ''Die Krankheiten des Beckenbindegewebes'', and an 1896 work on diseases of the female sex organs titled ''Die Erkrankungen der weiblichen Geschlechtsorgane'', the latter being co-authored with Rudolf Chrobak. Rosthorn is credited with the design of a specialized mask for application of chloroform anesthesia.〔() Vienna Virtual Museum of the History of Anesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine〕 == References == * (Pagel: Biographical Dictionary ) (translated from German) * (Antiquariat für Medizin ) (Biographical information) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alfons von Rosthorn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
