Abstract

In 1789 Vincenzo Malacarne was appointed to the chair of Surgery and Obstetrics at the University of Pavia, reformed in those years thanks to the Habsburg monarchy. Malacarne's recruitment had been favored thanks to Giovanni Alessandro Brambilla, the powerful imperial proto-surgeon and founder of the military medical-surgical academy in Vienna who was born near Pavia. Malacarne’s teaching period in Pavia opened under the best wishes, but his relations with the colleagues at the Medical Faculty soon deteriorated. Malacarne, flanked by Brambilla, clashed with the German clinician and professor at the Pavia University, Johann Peter Frank, well-known author of the « Medical Police » treatise. A severe dispute broke out, ended with Malacarne’s removal from the Pavia chair
