[7.25x10/5 inches]. 2 pp. On letterhead [with Dr. H.R. Oberhill]. With original envelope. Regarding Mrs. Marjorie Risum, Brodhead, Wisconsin. Bucy corresponding with Henry Suckle; he wants her x-ray records, something Suckle should have. The letter details the "various examinations and operations on this patient." Her initial complaint found her in December 1948 being treated for a "bruit synchronous with the heart which she had heard in her right ear for six months." All tests were negative and she underwent a right carotid arteriogram. "There was visible a rounded mass lying posterior to the sella turcica which contained some of the diadrast." Bucy considered and then, in 1949, performed a "ligation of the carotid artery" whereupon the patient became hysterical, causing the operation to be cancelled. Then the patient did not return for another three years. The procedure was then done, but the patient could still hear the sounds in her ear. She was pregnant at that time and avoided returning for consultation and diagnosis. Dr. M. W. Stuessy [Dr. Melvin W. Stuessy (1905-1974), of Brodhead, Wisconsin] was cc'd this correspondence. / Bucy, born in Iowa, took his medical doctorate from the University of Iowa. He became a neurosurgeon and neuropathologist, assisting Percival Bailey at the University of Chicago. At the time of this letter he was probably just starting his association with Northwestern University (as professor of neurosurgery) and the Chicago Memorial Hospital. "Paul Bucy is remembered for his work with experimental psychologist Heinrich Kluver (1897-1979) involving the eponymous Kluver-Bucy syndrome, defined as a behavioral disorder caused by malfunction of the left and right medial temporal lobes of the brain." [Wikip.] "Henry Marvin Suckle, MD passed away February 19, 2007, in Woodside, CA. Born in Coatesville, PA, he was an honors graduate of University of Pennsylvania and its Medical School where he was elected to Alpha Omega Alpha honorary society. His specialty training was at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. Dr. Suckle was a pioneer and premier neurological surgeon in the State of Wisconsin. Based in Madison, he was active at all of its hospitals and was Chief of Staff at the former Madison General Hospital. He treated patients throughout the state, often traveling long distances to consult and operate. He was a member of the Congress of Neurological Surgeons and the Harvey Cushing Society. In 1975, he and his family relocated to California, settling in Woodside. He practiced in San Jose; on the staff of O'Connor Hospital and the San Jose Hospital, where he was Chief of Staff. His vigor, youth, extraordinary experience and talent allowed him to practice long beyond his peers. Henry was an avid golfer and enjoyed the year-round play at the Stanford Golf Club." - Obituary.
