Georg Bartisch (* 1535 in Graefenhain near Königsbrück ; † 1606 or January 1607 in Dresden ) was a German surgeon and ophthalmologist . Between 1568 and 1583, "Georg Bartisch von Koniges Burck" ( Georg Bartisch von Königsbrück ) mainly traveled to Saxony , Silesia and Bohemia, where he issued official certificates for over 107 successful treatments, for which he, like other surgeons, had advertised, among other things were.

Live and act

He was born in Graefenhain in the Electorate of Saxony as the son of the surgeon of the same name who worked in Königsbrück . Growing up in poor conditions, he began to train as a bath and surgeon at the age of twelve . Apprenticeship certificates show that Bartisch was an apprentice for two years with Matthäus Fuchs in Wittenberg and from 1563 with A. Mayscheider in Schönwaldt near Brno and developed into an important oculist , stone cutter (cutting doctor) and surgeon without any academic training .

As an electoral Saxon court oculist, Bartisch wrote the work Ophthalmoduleia, that is eye service  - the first extensive German-language textbook on ophthalmology, which he gave to his Elector August, in Dresden in 1583 , who was not able to speak Latin, but was supported by a co-author who was well versed in theology, ancient language and humanism von Sachsen , for which he initially could not find a publisher and had it printed at his own expense. In this book, he divides the starlings , the operative therapy of which is only one of the main focuses of Bartisch's Handbook of Ophthalmology, into white, blue, green, gray, yellow and black starlings according to their color.

Bartisch was the first to publish the surgical removal of an eyeball to treat a severe form of protrusion bulbi . He had developed his own instruments for this purpose, which were later improved by Wilhelm Fabry (Fabricius Hildanus, Fabry von Hilden).

With its illustrations, the eye service von Bartisch for the first time presented ophthalmology with images that are inextricably linked to the text as an integrative component (woodcuts, by HH - presumably Hans Hewamaul , based on watercolored drawings by von Bartisch).

Bartisch's urological work is less well known . In a manuscript from 1575 that was edited as an “art book” by the Berlin urologist Otto Mankiewicz and found by the Breslau ophthalmologist Hermann Cohn , he collected all of the knowledge of the time on the treatment of bladder stones . The work, which is also provided with illustrations, testifies to Bartisch's high level of technical understanding and his skills as a surgeon. He stands in a row with Ambroise Paré (1510–1590), Pierre Franco , Jacques Guillemeau (1550–1613), Fabry von Hilden (1560–1634) and other well-known contemporary surgeons .

Bartisch's handwriting on the stone carving remained largely unknown until Cohn discovered it by chance in Dresden in 1893 and had it published by Mankiewicz in 1905. It is the oldest extensive German source on stone cutting. Bartisch's great experience, which he had gained in 28 years of work as a stone cutter, speaks from the font. He is said to have successfully operated on around 450 patients on bladder stones.

Georg Bartisch's successor was his son Tobias.
