Adam Politzer (1835--1920) received his degree as Doctor of Medicine in 1859. His method of tubal inflation of the middle car with the Politzer bag was published in 1863. Together with J. Gruber, he was appointed director of the newly-founded Clinic for Otology of the University of Vienna, the first clinic of its kind in the world. Thousands of doctors from all over the world came to Vienna to attend his advanced training courses. He was aided in his teaching by his textbook, Lehrbuch der Ohrenheilkunde, which was translated into several languages. Under Politzer, Vienna became a Mecca for otologists. In 1893, Politzer demonstrated focal alterations of the otic capsule as being the cause of otosclerosis for the first time. He published 103 scientific papers. During his 46 years of teaching, Politzer transformed otology from a "sterile, hopeless discipline" into an academically recognized specialty.
亚当·波利策尔（1835—1920）于1859年获得医学博士学位。他于1863年发表了用波利策尔气囊对中耳进行咽鼓管吹张的方法。他与J.格鲁伯一起被任命为维也纳大学新成立的耳科学诊所主任，这是世界上首个此类诊所。来自世界各地的数千名医生来到维也纳参加他的高级培训课程。他的教科书《耳科学教程》在教学中给予了他帮助，该书被翻译成多种语言。在波利策尔的引领下，维也纳成为了耳科医生的麦加圣地。1893年，波利策尔首次证明耳囊的局灶性改变是耳硬化症的病因。他发表了103篇科学论文。在其46年的教学生涯中，波利策尔将耳科学从一门“枯燥无望的学科”转变为一门获得学术认可的专业。
