By order of the Napoleontic government the Ecole de Mdecine published this report related to croup. The commission involved was composed of Corvisart, Hall, Pinel, le Roy, Baudeloque, Le Roux, Chaussier, Moreau, Laennec, Schilgu, Parist and Friedlander. The editor was Schilgu, but owning to his premature death in 1808, suceeded by Moreux de la Sarthe. The work consist of an analysis of 68 French and foreign work on the subject, starting with Baillou (1576) and ended with Caron (1808). The analysis is concluded by brief chronological check-list of the works examinated. Very rare.
