French physician. Born in Quimper, Brittany, he went to Paris in 1801. He was trained by Corbizard and other renowned physicians at the Charité Hospital, and obtained his medical degree in 1804. He opened a practice for financial reasons, but in 1813 he also treated war wounded soldiers at the Salpétriel Hospital, and gained a reputation as a clinical physician, with many well-known patients. After he became director of Necker Hospital in 1816, he placed emphasis on pathological anatomical research, comparing the clinical symptoms of patients with the autopsy findings after death. It was here that he invented the auscultation method and invented the wooden stethoscope, and in 1819 published his immortal masterpiece, "Indirect Auscultation." In 1822, he became a clinical professor at the Charité Hospital and a professor at the Collège de France, and the following year in 1823, he became a member of the Academie des Medicines. He left the name of a type of liver cirrhosis to the public, "Laennec's cirrhosis."

フランスの医学者。ブルターニュ地方カンペルの出身で、1801年パリに出た。シャリテ病院でコルビザールやその他の名医の指導を受け、1804年医学の学位を得た。経済的理由で開業したが、1813年サルペトリエル病院の戦傷病兵の診療にもあたり、臨床医としての評判をとり、知名人の患者も多かった。1816年ネッケル病院長に就任後は、患者の臨床症状と死後の剖検所見を対比検索して、病理解剖的研究を重視した。ここで聴診法を考案して木製聴診器を発明し、1819年、不朽の名著『間接聴診法』を発刊した。1822年シャリテ病院の臨床教授とコレージュ・ド・フランスの教授となり、翌1823年医学アカデミー会員となった。肝硬変症に「ラエネクの肝硬変」の名を残している。 [古川 明] [参照項目] | |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
