Historical background


FRENCH SURGERY ACADEMY / ACADÉMIE DE CHIRURGIE

Under the Ancien Régime, surgery was an artisanal practice that dealt with treating the external manifestations of disease, hence the contempt associated with it, based on its manual nature and on the Church's horror of seeing the blood shed. Yet it is a driver of medical progress insofar as it favors experimentation. In 1691, an edict recognized the specificity of surgeons over barbers-wig makers by prohibiting them from keeping a shop! However, in 1731, Georges Mareschal, the king's surgeon, and La Peyronie created an Academic Society of Surgeons of Paris which, in 1748, became the Royal Academy of Surgery, placed under the patronage of Louis XV.. Practitioners thus gain scientific and social recognition. At the end of the Ancien Régime, there were about fifteen schools of surgery (Bordeaux, Lyon, Nantes, Orléans, Rouen, Toulouse, etc.. ).
