Jacques Jean Lhermitte, a forefather of modern clinical neurology, was a French neurologist conducting the majority of his research between 1908 and 1957. Although less well known than his contemporaries at the time, Lhermitte eventually was famously recognized for his eponymously named "Lhermitte's sign." Lhermitte's contributions to the field of neurology spanned that of monographic clinical descriptions of syndromes to exquisitely detailed descriptions of neuropathology, finally delving into the realm of modern neuropsychiatry in his later years. Lhermitte laid the groundwork for the burgeoning field of neurology, developing the reputation of a renaissance physician by both his contemporaries and current neurologists. Here, we take an extensive look into the life and career of Lhermitte and the legacies that he left behind.
雅克·让·勒赫米特（Jacques Jean Lhermitte）是现代临床神经病学的先驱之一，他是一位法国神经病学家，他的大部分研究都在 1908 年至 1957 年之间进行。尽管他当时不如同时代的人出名，但勒赫米特最终以他的同名“勒赫米特征”而闻名。勒赫米特对神经病学领域的贡献涵盖了从综合征的专题临床描述到神经病理学的精细详细描述，最终在晚年涉足现代神经精神病学领域。勒赫米特为新兴的神经病学领域奠定了基础，他的同时代人和现任神经病学家都赋予了他文艺复兴医生的声誉。在这里，我们深入探讨了勒赫米特的生平与职业生涯，以及他留下的遗产。
