PIERRE DIONIS (1643?-1718) is described on title page as "premier chirurgien de feue Madame la Dauphine, a present de Madame la Duchesse de Bourgogne, & Jure a Paris" [First surgeon to the late Madame La Dauphine, present surgeon to Madame Duchess of Burgundy, & licensed in Paris]. He was appointed surgeon by Louis XIV in 1672 to teach anatomy according to the circulation of blood while the faculty of medicine in Paris challenged the discovery of blood circulation by William Harvey. In 1680 he became surgeon to Queen Maria Theresa of Austria. "Dionis has been acclaimed as the author of a surgical textbook that opened a new era in which French surgical teaching dominated Europe. He began his career as demonstrator in anatomy and surgery at the Jardin du Roi, in his time the premier teaching institution in those sciences. He later became a court surgeon. During the course of the 18th century, French surgery gained ascendancy over French academic medicine and also on the international stage. English surgery, likewise, made great progress. There was a very productive dialogue between medical scientists and teachers in both countries, assisted by textbooks in translation. The French Revolution demolished the medical and surgical institutions established under the old regime, but French surgery emerged from the rubble to play a great part in the birth of modern clinical medicine."--D. Simpson: Pierre Dionis and the Franco-British dialogue in surgery. ANZ J Surg. 2003 73(5):336-40.
GARRISON-MORTON No. 5575. "Dionis taught operative surgery at the Jardin-du-Roi, Paris, a famous training ground for surgeons. English translation, London, 1710".
