Lorenz Böhler (15 January 1885 in Wolfurt, Austria – 20 January 1973 in Vienna) was an Austrian physician and famous surgeon. Böhler is most notable as one of the creators—or even the creator—of modern accident surgery. He was the head of the AUVA-Hospital in Vienna, Brigittenau, that was later named after him: Lorenz-Böhler-Unfallkrankenhaus. This hospital was an international model during his time as the leading surgeon there. In radiology, the measurement of ''Böhler's angle'' on a foot X-ray can help detect fractures of the calcaneus. == Early life == At the early age of 5 Böhler – son of a family of craftspeople - knew he wanted to become a surgeon.〔Inge Lehne: ''Lorenz Böhler. Die Geschichte eines Erfolges.'' Maudrich, Wien 1991, ISBN 3-85175-557-X, p. 14.〕 When he was a little boy he used to anatomize small birds and squirrels. On 6 December 1896 an X-ray of a hand by Wilhelm Röntgen was published in the "Das interessante Blatt" magazine. Lorenz Böhler saw it, cut it out and stuck it on his reading book. In 1896 he attended the fürsterzbischöfliche Knabenseminar in Brixen. After two years he left that school and attended secondary school in Bregenz, where he had to repeat the third grade. He graduated in 1905. He started his studies in medicine in 1905 at the University of Vienna. In 1910 he met his wife—a nurse—at Bregenz’s hospital where he was working as a trainee. On 1 July 1911 Böhler became Doctor of Medicine at Vienna’s University. 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「Lorenz Böhler」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
