The disease and death of German Emperor Frederick III has often been described in historical and medical treaties. These were all based on official political and medical reports published during 1887-1888, the time of the disease. The assertion of laryngologists, made while Frederick III was still alive, that the laryngeal carcinoma developed from a specific syphilitic infection is examined here. On the basis of the relevant laryngological literature, as well as less well-known sources, the probability of this assumption, the particular symptoms, and the fulminant course of the disease are documented. The behavior and the personality of Sir Morell Mackenzie is accordingly seen in a different light than in the past.
德国皇帝腓特烈三世的疾病与死亡在历史和医学文献中常有描述。这些描述均基于1887 - 1888年疾病发生期间发布的官方政治和医学报告。本文将审视喉科医生在腓特烈三世在世时所提出的观点，即喉癌由特定梅毒感染发展而来。基于相关喉科学文献以及鲜为人知的资料来源，记录了这一假设的可能性、具体症状以及疾病的迅猛发展过程。因此，莫雷尔·麦肯齐爵士的行为和性格也有了与以往不同的解读。
