[Historical profile of Spanish medicine].
In this essay what we try to explain is that, according te the historical evolution of the peninsular Medicine, we can diatinguish a first pre-Hispanic period where the important Hispano-Arabian medical heritage and its transmission to the Cristian Europe are included. The real Spanish Medicine, which started when the unification of the peninsular Kingdoms made by the Catholic Queen and King took place, goes through splendour and decadence periods, showring its relationship with concrete national political situations and war episodes, which caused the lack of concordance between our medicine and the historical development of the European Medicine.
