[Ortho] Traumatologic history

[Oleg Blinnikov]

Dear Igor Victorovitch,
Sorry, but I will write in English.
Thanks a lot for your excellent work. Please, do not hesitate to
publish the text. The most important part is a story of 2 gifted
persons (Yudin and Zeno). It is already incredible that they met each
other. It looks like they had the same God (Surgery) and the same Muse
(Art). Zeno is mentioned in some sources as a good friend of
Elías Castelnuovo, Argentinian writer (some people called him
"Gorky of America"). They believed in serving the people. It was a
time of social activities in Argentina under influence of USSR and
people like Leon Trotsky. It would be good if you can describe this
background... It might be interesting to learn more about the
relationship between Zeno and other famous Argentinian surgeons like
Ivanissevitch.... I think your story is not so much about technical
development of traumatological science and practical skills but more
about human relations. It is important to know real history of surgery
in Russia and in the World.              
Thanks a lot for your work,
