  • Title: [A historical case of laryngeal cancer (the death of Frederick III of Prussia)].
    Author: Sperati G.
    Journal: Acta Otorhinolaryngol Ital; 1990; 10 Suppl 32():1-20. PubMed ID: 2096589.
    Abstract:
    The clinical evolution of the disease which lead to the death of Frederick III of Prussia on the 15th of June, 1888 is reconstructed through testimony of the times. The diagnosis of laryngeal cancer was made only after it was too late for surgery to have any effect and this delay was due to the differences in opinion between the attending laryngologists; particularly between that of the English physician Morell Mackenzie and the Germans Gehrardt and Bergmann.
