REFERENCES : Book reviews, Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 1998,186(5), 608: "This slim book (175 pages) is the first to be dedicated to the history of herniology. Beautifully illustrated with more figures (half of them coloured) than pages, it encompasses over 5,000 years of surgery. We owe a debt of gratitude to the senior authors, René Stoppa and George Wantz, for leading such a bold enterprise. Their unrivaled experience in the field gives this exhaustive review the cachet so many rare documents deserve? Anybody who has to take care of patients with hernias should get a copy for a personal library. It will serve for reference and as a teaching tool, thus providing the proper background for those who wish to do well in the increasingly specialized field of herniology."; Soler M & Giuly J: Robert Bendavid (and E. Acquaviva), Hernia (2019) 23:1031: "Eugene Acquaviva was the first designer and user of a synthetic prosthesis in parietal surgery (first publication in 1944). René Stoppa had mentioned this little-known information in his book 'Hernia Healers' (1998), which tells the history of the treatment of hernias since ancient times"; Gandhi JA, Churiwala JJ: The unsung heroes of hernia surgery.
