Abstract

The influence of fate on history is a fascinating subject. This paper reviews the death of the Crown Prince of Prussia from carcinoma of the larynx. This was a critical turning point in history. The roles of the European physicians involved in his care are reviewed. It was not until after the death of Queen Victoria that the true character of these physicians was revealed.
