    Description
    Medical study of ulcerated flesh above the left buttock of a male patient under the care of F.M.R.Walshe in Alexandria, Egypt.

    The image is inscribed in pencil verso: “Diptheritic ulcer on buttock. Alexandria 1916.” The image was loosely inserted in the paper “On the pathogenesis of diptheritic paralysis. Part 3. The central nervous lesion...”, by F.M.R.Walshe, Quarterly Journal of Medicine, v.12 1919, pp.32-37. This preprint is in volume 1 of Walshe’s collected papers in the Royal Society’s Fellows’ Works collection.

    Sir Francis Martin Rouse Walshe (1885-1973) was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1946. He joined the Royal Army Medical Corps in 1915 and was posted as Consulting Neurologist to British Forces in Egypt.
