More than 1000 years ago, Rhazes practiced rudimentary neurology. This monumental physician wrote more than 200 books in his lifetime and died a blind pauper in the 10th century AD. His Kitab al-Hawi (Liber Continens) was one of the most famous and detailed medical texts of the ancient world. Here, we discuss the life of Rhazes and provide perhaps the first English translation of his writings dealing with facial palsy (Lagveh) and its treatment. It is the contributions of early clinicians/scholars such as Rhazes on which we base our current medical knowledge.
一千多年前,拉齐斯就开展了基础神经学研究。这位伟大的医生一生撰写了200多部著作,于公元10世纪去世,死时双目失明且一贫如洗。他的《医学集成》(Kitab al-Hawi,即《综合之书》)是古代世界最著名、最详尽的医学典籍之一。在此,我们讲述拉齐斯的生平,并首次将他关于面瘫(Lagveh)及其治疗的著作翻译成英文。我们当前的医学知识正是基于拉齐斯等早期临床医生/学者的贡献。
