Abstract

The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, first awarded in 1901, was established by Alfred Nobel to acknowledge "those who during the preceding year had conferred the greatest benefit on mankind." Two urologists have achieved this daunting task: Werner Theodore Otto Forssmann (1956) and Charles Brenton Huggins (1966). This article reflects the lives and accomplishments of these men as an inspiration to those who have likewise dedicated themselves to the field of urology.

摘要

诺贝尔生理学或医学奖于1901年首次颁发，由阿尔弗雷德·诺贝尔设立，旨在表彰“在前一年为人类做出最大贡献的人”。两位泌尿科医生完成了这项艰巨的任务：维尔纳·西奥多·奥托·福斯曼（1956年获奖）和查尔斯·布伦顿·哈金斯（1966年获奖）。本文介绍了这两位医生的生平与成就，以激励同样投身于泌尿外科领域的人们。
