Frankfurt, Johann Saurn / in Verlegung Jonas Rhodius, 1607, Folio, 4 nn. Bl., 716 (recte 687) pp., 5 Bl., Register, mit vielen Textholzschnitten, Ledereinband im Stil d.Zeit; Titelblatt in Faksimile, 12 Blätter mit Japanpapier verstärkt. Officina Aurea. Das ist/ Güldene Werckstatt der Chirurgy oder WundtArtzney : Von allen Gliedtmassen deß gantzen Menschlichen Leibs und derselbigen eusserlichen Gebrechen. Als den viel und mancherley unnatürlichen Geschwülsten /Wundt / Geschwärn / Frantzosen / beinbrüchen / Verrecnckungen / vermischten und unvermischten Artzneyen und allen nothwendigen Instrumenten ganz conterfärisch vorgestelelt. Erstlich Von Joanne Andrea De Cruce einem erfahrnen Wundtartzt zu Venedig beschrieben/ Nun mehr aber . auß dem Italianischen/ als seinem Original in unsere hoch Teutsche Sprach versetzt/ Durch Petrum Uffenbachium der Artzney D. . in Franckfort ERSTE DEUTSCHE AUSGABE, dieser gesuchten Chirurgie des berühmten venezianischen Arztes. Das Buch enthält die allerfrühesten Bild-Dokumente zur Neurochirurgie. Die zahlreichen Holzschnitte zeigen nicht nur alle gebräuchlichen Trepanationsinstrumente mit den verschiedenen Kronen, sondern auch Raspatorien, Papageien- u. Geierschnäbel, Linsenmesser, Scheren, Sonden, Pinzetten, Flach- und Hohlmeißel, Holz- und Bleihämmer, Bohrer, die teilweise durch eine dünne Schnur an einem Bogen in Rotation gesetzt werden, Sägen, Schabeisen, Elevatorien, Tire-fond, Dreifuß u. Hebel zur Emporhebung eingedrückter Schädelknochen, etc. Daneben ist noch das ganze "Armamentarium Chirurgicum" der Wundärzte des 16. Jahrhunderts abgebildet. Erstmalig in einem deutschsprachigen Druckwerk findet sich hier die figürliche Darstellung einer neurochirurgischen Operation in häuslicher Umgebung. Neben der Anatomie des Kopfes schildert Croce in aller Ausführlichkeit, die Schädel- und Hirnverletzungen. Dabei werden auch die Leistungen der Griechen und Araber gewürdigt. E. Gurlt gibt im 3. Band seiner Geschichte der Chirurgie auf 25 Druckseiten eine genaue Schilderung des Inhalts und zeigt auf 4 doppelblattgr. Falttafeln über 158 Instrumente der hier weit über 200 abgebildeten Instrumente. Besonderen Raum findet die Schilderung der verschiedenen Trepanationsinstrumente die in Wort und Bild in einer bis dahin nie gekannten Anzahl dargestellt werden. Auch Blutstillung u. Drainage der Schädelhöhle, sowie die Verletzungen der Nerven, etc. finden Erwähnung. Das Werk handelt auch "Von der Linderung und Abwendung der Schmerzen". Im Buch der Arzneipraxis wird unter Anwendung von "Narcotica" und "Hypnotica" berichtet. Dies ist eine der frühesten Abhandlungen zur Anästhesiologie in einem chirurgischen Lehrbuch. Daneben wird in der alten Ordnung von Kopf zu Fuß das ganze Spektrum der in den Zeiten der Renaissance geübten chirurgischen Eingriffe abgehandelt. -- Nur wenig ist über Giovanni Andrea della Croce (1514-1575) selbst bekannt. In Venedig geboren, wurde er angeblich schon um 1532 Mitglied des Collegium der Chirurgen und hat bis über 1560 mit großer Auszeichnung in seiner Heimatstadt gewirkt. Die Übersetzung besorgte der berühmte Frankfurter Stadtarzt und Bibliophile P. Uffenbach, der auch die ebenso seltene deutsche Ausgabe des A. Paré in Frankfurt herausgebracht hatte. Während diese altehrwürdigen Chirurgiebücher sonst im Gebrauch zerschlissen, meist in einem ganz erbärmlichen Zustand angeboten werden, ist unser Exemplar, trotz seiner geringen Mängel sehr gut erhalten. Der Abdruck der vielen Holzschnitte ist klar und von plastischer Wirkung. Nur an den auch damals schon teuren Einbandkosten scheinen die Vorbesitzer gespart zu haben und mit dem neuen, geschmackvollen, handgefertigten Meistereinband in Leder ist das Buch wieder gerüstet für hoffentlich weitere 350 Jahre Bücherleben und den bibliophilen Stolz seiner künftigen Besitzer. So ist dieses schöne Holzschnittbuch eines der wichtigsten Quellenwerke zur Frühgeschichte der Neurochirurgie überhaupt und .

Edition originale
First Edition in Italian. Folio. [18] ff., 296 pp. Collation: *8 **6 ***4 A-Z6 AA10, COMPLETE. Ziletti's device on title, 5 large woodcuts showing operations (2 on the battlefield), numerous woodcut illustrations of surgical instruments and heads with incisions, occasional staining or soiling; title with outer corners extended; fol. f5 with marginal infill, gathering AA at end with old ink stain to top margin, extending perhaps 5 mm and not affecting text, N1-2 with old ink stain in the lower margin, likewise not affecting text; Interesting early annotations to the first 35 pages, including early ownership inscriptions on title (dated 1605). Recent full vellum antique. FIRST VERNACULAR EDITION. Recognized as one of the foremost sixteenth century accounts of surgery in Italy, this was preceded only by this publisher's Latin edition of the previous year; our edition contains MORE woodcuts of surgical instruments and illustrations of the removal of bullets by field surgeons. The "Cirugia" is justly celebrated for its profusion of fine woodcuts, some half- or full-page. It includes original illustrations for cranial surgery. "Croce improved the instruments for trephination, and published classic woodcuts depicting the operation, including the first illustrations of a neurological surgery actually taking place. The work is also important for Croce's description of cranial and cerebral diseases. In hundreds of woodcuts of instruments and procedures Croce illustrated all of the instruments used before and during his own time" (Garrison-Morton). "The various types of arrows, spears, and bullets used in warfare of his day are also illustrated as well as several scenes of the typical operating room of the sixteenth century" (Heirs of Hippocrates). Concerning the trepan, Croce used a brace and drill stock, to which the circular saw or a sharp perforator was fixed with a screw (see: C.J.S. Thompson, History of Surgical Instruments, 1942, p. 40, with illustration). Giovanni Andrea della Croce (1514-1575), a native of Croce d'Ampugnani in Corsica, practiced at Venice and played an important part in the rise of surgery during the Italian Renaissance. He was certainly familiar with Pare's methods, and probably learned of them through Guido Guidi of Paris. Of this first Italian edition, only one other copy has sold since 2012 according to Rare Book Hub, unless we consider the gravely defective copy that was offered on three different occasions by Kiefer, which with good reason always failed to sell. Ours is the only copy of this edition currently on the market, complete or otherwise. Wellcome I, 1668 (inexplicably fols. *3v-*4r in their online surrogate are not reproduced). This edition not in Waller, Osler, or Adams.

Small folio, ff. (iv), 142, (8) including the final blank leaf. With 5 large woodcuts of surgical operations and numerous smaller woodcuts mostly of instruments, woodcut device on the title. Small repair to fore-edge margin of S3?S5, Z3?Z4 lightly browned and with minor repairs in the fore-edge margins, a few other leaves very lightly browned and some minor dampstains. Early (original?) paste paper boards, no free endpapers, uncut edges. ASSOCIATION COPY, inscribed at the foot of the title-page by Francesco de Bustis (?Ad usum mei Francisci de Bustis a Vidua?), a surgeon who assisted the author and is mentioned by him in this work. FIRST EDITION. G&M 4850.4. One of the most important iconographic sources for early surgical instruments, and one of the great illustrated medical books of the sixteenth century, with about five hundred woodcuts depicting all the best known and most frequently used surgical instruments from antiquity to the time of publication, the most complete collection of surgical instruments published to date. Three half-page illustrations show surgery of the head in progress; these are the first illustrations to show the stages of such an operation, and a typical room in which it was carried out (at home in a canopied bed with the family, servants, cats, dogs and mice all in attendance), which are the first illustrations of an operating room. Croce improved the trephine and gave important descriptions of cranial and cerebral disease. He also gave excellent recommendations for wound management, and commented extensively on gunshot wounds. Two full-page woodcuts show operations on the battlefield. Croce was one of the most successful surgeons in Venice during the years of warfare with the Turks, who are depicted in the last full-page woodcut. This is a very large, uncut copy, in which the woodcuts are preserved entire. In most copies the edges have been cut and the woodcuts, which extend several centimetres beyond the text, are shaved or cropped. This is a true association copy. Francesco de Busti, called della Vidua, was an assistant surgeon or dissector to Della Croce, and is mentioned in this work (on p. 31 of the 1583 Italian edition) as one of the ?most truthful witnesses? to the many dissections and operations on the cranium that Della Croce carried out ?with his own hands.? For more on de Busti, see E.A. Cicogna, Delle Iscrizioni Veneziane, vol. 1, p. 337: ?Un Francesco de Bustis a Vidua è registrato fra gl?incisori anatomici e fra i priori del Veneto Collegio Chirurgico dal dottor Francesco Bernardi all?anno 1584 e 1602. Questo de Bustis è pure nominato dal celebre Giannandrea Dalla Croce nella sua Chirurgia (Libro II [i.e. I], Trattato I) siccome uno di quei professori che alle sue operazioni anatomiche intervenivano.? There are ten short annotations by de Busti in the margins of this copy and one longer one. Walker, History of neurological surgery, pp. 18?19 and 225?227, reproducing several woodcuts. This first edition is rare, especially in an uncut state.
