life and work

On December 17, 1932 Ruiter was at the University of Groningen on the subject of Chronic pyodermiëen (dt. Chronic pyoderma ) PhD . From February 1, 1947 until his retirement in 1969, Ruiter was Professor of Dermatology at the University of Groningen.

In 1947, Ruiter and his colleagues AW Pompen and HJ Wyers discovered abnormal vacuoles in the blood vessels during an autopsy of two patients with Fabry disease . They were the first to express the suspicion - later confirmed - that Fabry's disease is a systematized storage disease. In some works, Fabry's disease is therefore also referred to as Ruiter-Pompen-Weyers syndrome .

Superficial vasculitis ( vasculitis superficialis ) is also called Ruiter's disease in honor of Maximiliaan Ruiter .
