In 1646, Fabricius Hildanus accompanied his description of a new way to apply a setaceum (seton) in the neck with a nicely carved woodcut. In 1951, this same woodcut was used by an author of the History of Neurological Surgery to illustrate Hildanus's method of "reducing cervical dislocation." In 1997 this striking misreading found its way into the History of Neurosurgery in its Scientific and Professional Contexts. The paper discusses how this ahistoric interpretation was possible and why it was perpetuated for nearly half a century.
1646年,法布里修斯·希尔达努斯在描述一种在颈部应用羊肠线(挂线疗法)的新方法时,附上了一幅精心雕刻的木刻图。1951年,《神经外科史》的一位作者用这幅相同的木刻图来说明希尔达努斯“复位颈椎脱位”的方法。1997年,这种明显的误读出现在《科学与专业背景下的神经外科史》中。本文讨论了这种缺乏历史依据的解读是如何产生的,以及它为何持续了近半个世纪。
