A Brief Study Related to Treatment of Sigmund Freud’S Maxillary Jawbone Cancer by Hans Pichler and Varaztad Kazanjian

Ackerman’s tumour is a rare histological form of carcinoma, currently recognised as a clinical and independent histopathological entity. It can grow at all membrane levels located in the upper aerodigestive tract but occurs most frequently in oral cavities. From 1919 to his death, Sigmund Freud was treated for a maxillary jawbone cancer by two exceptional surgeons, the Austrian, Hans Pichler, and the American, Varaztad Kazanjian. Fleeing the Nazi regime, he went into exile in England where he died after numerous recurrences of the disease.
