Du féminisme et de l’infantilisme chez les tuberculeux.

Publication Details

Paris: A. Parent, 1871 CE.

In a letter prefaced to Faneau de La Cour’s thesis, Paul Joseph Lorain (1827-1875) described the idiopathic arrest of growth now known as “Lorain’s type”. It was subsequently ascribed to hypopituitarism. The word “infantilism” first appeared in this work. Digital facsimile from BiuSante.ParisDescartes.fr at this link.
