چکیده
J Postgrad Med 2004;50:82-83 hristian Albert Theodor Billroth was the first of five sons born to Carl Theodor Billroth, a priest in the Lutheran church and his wife Johanna Christina. He was born on April 26, 1829, at Bergen, on the island of Rügen, Prussia. The family lived in Klosterstrasse, later renamed Billrothstrasse. Three years after Billroth's birth, the family moved from the fishing village Bergen on the Baltic coast, to Reinberg. His father died when Theodor was five, and his mother then moved with his grandfather in Greifswald where Billroth attended the Gymnasium. He was musically inclined – a family characteristic – and probably for that reason was not an exceptional pupil, needing tutoring at home. He seemed unable to master languages and mathematics, was not quick-witted and spoke slowly.
