ABSTRACT
Antonio di Paolo Benivieni (1443-1502) is one of the greatest physicians of Renaissance unfairly forgotten at the present time. Benivieni, in his major work of all his life «De abditis nonnullis ac mirandis morborum et sanationum causis¼, presents not only description of pathologic alterations (including the first in history description of carcinoma of pyloric part of stomach, mesenterial occlusion, fibrinogenous pericarditis) discovered at dissection but he tries to analyze and compare pathologic anatomic and clinical data. The treatise itself is the first in history pathologic anatomic work.
