Volume 7, Number 4 / July, 1978〕 ==Early life, schooling, military service== Burou was born on September 6, 1910 in Tarbes in the Hautes Pyrénées, France, while his parents were visiting the Burou family in the nearby village of Juillan.〔Annals of Plastic Surgery: Hage, J Joris MD, PhD; Karim, Refaat B.

Sr MD, “On the Origin of Pedicled Skin Inversion Vaginoplasty: Life and Work of Dr Georges Burou of Casablanca” December 2007 - Volume 59 - Issue 6 - pp 723-729〕 His parents worked as schoolteachers in Algiers, where Burou spent his youth.〔Hage, Karim, Laub, 2007, pp723-729〕 Burou underwent medical training at the Algiers University of Medicine.〔 He specialized in gynecology and obstetrics at the Maternity of Mustapha Hospital in Algiers and became “Chef de Clinique” at Parnet Hospital in the Algiers suburb of Hussein Dey.〔 During his training Burou took a special interest in anatomy, and later colleagues were reportedly highly impressed by his detailed knowledge of the anatomy of the perineum and pelvis.〔 From early 1943 onward Burou first served as second lieutenant of the French Expeditionary Corps and eventually left North Africa as a military surgeon of the 2nd Moroccan Mountain Division to actively join battle at the French island of Corsica and the Italian river Garigliano and mountain of Cassino.〔 Together with New Zealand and Indian troops, his division forced through the German Gustav Line at Cassino on May 13, 1944, the turning point in the liberation of Italy, and lost 1120 men in the process.〔 After the liberation of Rome, Venice, and Siena, Burou landed at Cassis for the Allied campaigns in the Provence, the Alps, the Vosges, and the Alsace.〔 During the subsequent liberation of Strasburg in 1945, one of his best friends died in combat.〔 Shortly after, when in the south of Germany, his service ended when he returned to Algiers to bury his father.〔 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「Georges Burou」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
