In 1863, Anton von Tröltsch, Adam Politzer, and Hermann Schwartze began the first journal dedicated solely to disorders of the ear, Archiv für Ohrenheilkund (Archives of Otology). In the inaugural edition, Hermann Schwartze, the youngest of the three, took on the responsibility for summarizing all the prevailing advances in otology recorded in the previous 10 years leading up to its publication. This work represents a concise summary of all major advances and theories regarding diseases of the ear circa 1863, providing a valuable window on the practice of otology during its inception as an independent subspecialty. In this first of an anticipated two-part article, we provide a translation of what is perhaps the most interesting portion: pathology and therapy of the outer ear and middle ears. The second part of the manuscript will translate the pathology and treatment of inner ear disorders. It is hoped that this work will spark contemporary otologists not only to reflect how far we have come as a subspecialty but also to reflect what we still must accomplish as physicians and scientists.
1863年，安东·冯·特勒尔奇、亚当·波利策和赫尔曼·施瓦茨创办了第一本专门致力于耳部疾病研究的期刊《耳科学文献》（《耳科学档案》）。在创刊号中，三人中最年轻的赫尔曼·施瓦茨承担了总结该期刊出版前10年里耳科学领域所有主流进展的责任。这项工作是对1863年前后耳部疾病所有主要进展和理论的简明总结，为耳科学作为一个独立亚专业诞生之初的实践提供了一个宝贵的窗口。在这篇预计分两部分的文章的第一部分中，我们翻译了可能是最有趣的部分：外耳和中耳的病理学与治疗方法。手稿的第二部分将翻译内耳疾病的病理学与治疗方法。希望这项工作能促使当代耳科医生不仅反思我们作为一个亚专业已经取得了多大的进步，而且反思作为医生和科学家我们仍需完成哪些任务。
