Franz Jordan von Ried

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Franz Jordan Ried , from 1892 von Ried (born February 11, 1810 in Kempten (Allgäu) , † June 11, 1895 in Jena ) was a German surgeon and university professor .

Life

Franz Jordan attended the Gymnasium Fridericianum in Erlangen after his father, the Bavarian regional court assessor Johann Martin Ried, was transferred to Erlangen as a regional judge in 1825. After graduating from high school in 1828, he studied medicine at the universities of Erlangen and Würzburg and received his doctorate in 1832 at the University of Erlangen on "Pneumatosis Vasorum et Cordis".

Since 1832 he had been a scientific assistant at the maternity hospital, today's women's clinic, in Erlangen and from October of the same year to March 1833 he took over the professorship for obstetrics there. After a study trip that took him to Munich, Ried began an assistant position at the medical clinic of the University Hospital Erlangen under Adolph Henke on August 1, 1833 , then took over the first assistant position at the surgical and ophthalmic clinic in Erlangen with Michael Jäger and in August 1834 passed the medical state examination in the fall of 1835. From January to June 1836 he was on leave of absence from his assistant position to sit in Berlin with Johann Nepomuk Rust , Karl Ferdinand von Graefe , Johann Christian Jüngken and Johann Friedrich Dieffenbach . After he had returned to Erlangen, Ried had to take over the clinic for Jäger, who suffered from a lung disease, in the summer of 1837 and his lectures in the winter semester of 1837/38. After Jäger's death on February 3, 1838, Ried was temporarily assigned the management of the clinic and the lectures on surgery. Despite the unanimous proposal of the medical faculty and the Senate, Ried did not receive the professorship, instead it was transferred to Louis Stromeyer by the government. Ried then settled as a general practitioner in Erlangen in the autumn of 1838 and qualified as a professor for surgery in 1839. With a government grant, he went on a study trip to Strasbourg and Paris in 1840 and then worked for another five years as an assistant at Stromeyer and, from 1841, at his successor Johann Ferdinand Heyfelder at the surgical and ophthalmic clinic.

In March 1846, Ried was appointed full professor of surgery at the University of Jena and was also appointed director of the surgical department of the Jena State Hospital. He rejected all appointments to the University of Greifswald in 1849, to the University of Marburg in 1850, to the University of Würzburg in 1853 and to the University of Kiel in 1854. In 1853 he was a co-founder of the medical and scientific society in Jena. After his retirement in October 1884 he still read lectures on the history of surgery and was chairman of the examination board for the medical state examination until 1892. A stroke in 1893 paralyzed his right side and made any further work impossible for him.

In 1846 he married Katharina Stotz (1817–1872) with whom he had three sons and three daughters. Hermann Eichhorst was his son-in-law.

Services

Ried's literary work is behind his achievements as an operator and teacher. In addition to his main work Die Resectionen der Bone , he published only smaller treatises. He made a special contribution to his operations in the field of conservative bone resection , the cutting out of pathological skeletal pieces while preserving healthy soft tissues. In addition, he achieved success in plastic surgery, especially in rhinoplasty , stomatoplasty and chiloplasty , as well as in the treatment of phosphorus necrosis . He was important for the Jena Clinic in that he introduced ether and chloroform anesthesia and pyloric resection according to Jules Péan .

As early as 1853 he was Saxon Councilor , from 1884 Grand Ducal Saxon Privy Councilor and from 1890 then Grand Ducal Saxon real Privy Councilor and Excellency . On his 60th anniversary as a doctor in 1892, he was raised to the personal nobility .
