Originale
"Enchondromatosis or Ollier's disease was discovered by and named after the French surgeon Louis Ollier (1830-1900).[2] Ollier is primarily known for his work on bone and joint surgery.[2] He studied the regeneration of bones from the periosteum and developed new ways to treat wounds rather then amputation when the Germans invaded France.[2] Ollier made important contributions to surgery and he also devised a way for treating compound fractures. Since Ollier developed orthopedic surgery in France many patients from around the world came to be his patient.Ollier discovered enchondromatosis by examining multiple younger patients with large bone cysts in their hands and arms. Since Ollier was the first doctor to work with enchondromatosis the disease was also named after him."
