The rare first French edition. In 1761 Bilguer, the famous army surgeon, published his thesis "Diss. med.-chir. de Membrorum amputatione", a small treatise which can be considered as the foundation of reconstructive surgery. This French translation is much expanded with numerous notes by Tissot, and was later translated into Ducht, English, German and Italian.-- (some scattered light foxing).
