The surgery of Theodoric ca. 1267. Translated from the Latin by Eldridge Campbell and James Colton. 2 vols.

Theodoric, a Dominican friar, was a pupil of Hugh of Lucca (circa 1160-1257), whose teachings are reflected in his writings. Allbutt considered Theodoric to be one of the most original surgeons of all time. Borgognoni was an early advocate of cleanliness in surgical dressings. This may be viewed as foreshadowing antisepsis. His advocacy for hygienic treatement of wounds was not adoped by other authorities.
