Life and Professional Career

Dr. Georg Karl Felix Preiser (1876–1913) was a German surgeon who lived in Hamburg. He worked as an orthopaedic surgeon, mostly on cases involving trauma and joint diseases. His publications include the monograph “Static Joint Diseases” and journal articles such as “A Case of So-called Idiopathic Juvenile Osteoarthritis Deformans Coxae (a Congenital Dysarthritis?)” and “The Tennis Elbow.” He was interested in anatomy of the bones, particularly the normal and disturbed perfusion to the bones in fractures and in the development of osteonecrosis.
