[Historical outline of forensic medicine in Poland and its connections with forensic medicine in German-speaking countries].
The author briefly presented development of forensic medicine as a separate branch of medical sciences in Poland from the end of the Middle Ages to date. He comments on conditions in which forensic medicine developed after partitions of Poland and its restoration of independence. He emphasized the merits of Prof. Wachholz and his pupils, as well as the great publishing effort of forensic scientists during the interwar period and after World War II. He did not fail to highlight links between Polish and German forensic medicine and quotes numerous examples of very close contacts between both communities in this field.
