Filatov-Martsinkovsky Set

Filatov-Martsinkovsky set: Leading researchers in the field of ophthalmology

The Filatov-Martsinkovsky set is a unique combination of the knowledge and achievements of two outstanding scientists in the field of ophthalmology: Vladimir Petrovich Filatov (1875-1956) and Alexander Petrovich Martsinkovsky. These names are widely known in the medical community, and their contributions to the development of ophthalmology have had a tremendous impact on practice and science.

Vladimir Petrovich Filatov, a Russian ophthalmologist, was one of the founders of modern eye surgery. He developed many new methods for treating eye diseases and made significant contributions to the development of ophthalmology. Filatov was the founder of the Kyiv School of Ophthalmology, which became one of the leading centers of research in this field. He also developed methods for treating eye diseases using autotransplantation of tissues, including the cornea.

Alexander Petrovich Martsinkovsky, also a Russian ophthalmologist, made significant contributions to the field of eye microsurgery and ophthalmic pathology. He developed methods for reconstructing the eye for trauma and tumors, and also made important discoveries in the field of diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases. Martsinkovsky was a pioneer in the use of microsurgical techniques in eye surgery, which contributed to a significant improvement in the results of surgical treatment.

The Filatov-Martsinkovsky set combines the legacy of these two outstanding scientists and represents a comprehensive approach to the diagnosis, treatment and research of eye diseases. This set of methods and techniques includes a variety of surgical procedures, medications, and innovative approaches to ophthalmic practice. It is widely used in clinics and research around the world.

Thanks to Filatov and Martsinkovsky, ophthalmology received new opportunities in the field of treatment and diagnosis of eye diseases. Their contributions to the development of medicine continue to be significant and inspire a new generation of doctors and scientists. The Filatov-Martsinkovsky set is a true heritage of ophthalmology and a symbol of the high level of professionalism and innovation in this field.

Contents: The history of the Filatov-Martsinkov set goes back centuries and begins from the times of ancient Greece and Rome, as well as China and India, where plastic forms were used to correct deformations of the face and skull bones. Since ancient civilizations, this technique has been used to improve a person’s appearance.

Over time, various methods and methods of “building” the face became increasingly popular. But the main technology has always been and remains the creation of a spatial structure in the skull, correcting the skeleton, muscles and bones of the face, by changing the angles of some of their parts and inserting special plates to align the position of the facial part of the head.

This technique was actively used by world-famous healing masters: the famous aesculapians of antiquity: Hippocrates, Galen, Diocletian, Gray, Plato, Celsus, Claudius, Hippocrisus, Andromachus, Porphyry of Tyre, etc. Aristotle developed and put into practice a unique method of facial changes. Plato, Arion of Chios first proposed a way to create different shapes of the nose by changing the cartilaginous bones. Galen was the creator of the classification of sizes and types of facial curvature. Evelin discovered the strongest silicic acid powder, which is used to whiten teeth. The antigone method, that is, the formation of the face during the patient’s lifetime, was mastered by Chinese scientists in the 15th century. The first so-called Bindu Vindham method, in which the lower eyelids protruded, was proposed by Lentulus Batiatus. Greek specialists fixed hooks and weights on the jaws to change the bite for the better and the appearance of the third incisor of the upper jaw. They shaped the face with boots and fists. Later, special masks and special helmets appeared that shaped and corrected the jaw. Thus, correction plates were used from ancient times until the middle of the 20th century, but at the same time they were almost not used for adults, since there were no reliable methods for attaching the plates at that time. In 1915, a book by Paul Sauerbach was published in Paris, in which dozens of modifications of facial braces were proposed - both using special grips, “perforators”, and using metal pieces
