[The origin of the Wilno Obstetric and Gynaecological Clinic and its roots, which reach as far back as the 18th century].
Studies carried out in libraries and archives in Wilno, Cracow, Warsaw and Gdánsk raven how the clinic of obstetrics and gynaecology was created in Wilno, describe the first years activity, and the persons who had the greatest influence on its creation and position. This clinic, which was organized by Tadeusz Burdziński and developed by Władysław Jakowicki in cooperation with Wacław Zaleski, functioned in the years 1922-1939. In its scarcely 17 years of existence this clinic had a marked presence among the Polish clinics of obstetrics and gynaecology in the Second Republic (II RP). In the author's opinion this fact can be traced back to the roots of obstetrics and gynaecology in the university in Wilno, which reach as far as the 18th century and the person of Mikołaj Regnier. For the first half of the 19th century the gynaecologists and obstetrics of Wilno includes Andrzej Matusewicz and Mikołaj Mianowski carried out their scientific activities outside the University for nearly 80 years. It seems that this activity, which lead to numerous publications, is the platform upon which rests continuous scientific tradition of obstetrics and gynaecology in Wilno and lets us see to present clinic in the University of Stefan Batory - in 21st surely century - as her heiress of that tradition.
