Abstract

This year marks the 160th anniversary of the birth of the outstanding surgeon Caesar Alphonse Roux, whose contribution in almost all areas of surgery can not be overestimated. Many of the surgical procedures offered by them are considered to be truly innovative. For the majority of his contemporaries, he was a virtuoso surgeon, a talented teacher. For those who knew Roux personally, he was a model of compassion, selflessness and humility.
