Anglo-French contributions to the recognition of rheumatoid arthritis

Anglo-French contributions to the recognition of rheumatoid arthritis

K J Fraser. Ann Rheum Dis. 1982 Aug.

Abstract

Early descriptions of rheumatoid arthritis in the English and French literature are reviewed. Charcot pointed out that the disease was recognised as distinct from gout in eighteenth century England, and pictorial evidence for this is presented. His own work on arthritis led to a series of noteworthy interactions with Alfred Baring Garrod, which are discussed.
