Macewen became interested in the biology of bone and carried out a long and critical series of experiments on animals in order to determine the manner in which bones grow and the conditions underlying their repair.

Autorisirte Deutsche Übersetzung, hrsg. v. Richard Wittelshöfer. - Stuttgart, Verlag von Ferdinand Enke, 1881, 8°, X, 136 pp., mit den 53 Holzschnitten des Originals, orig. Broschur. Erste deutsche Ausgabe! Sir William Macewen (1848-1924) schottischer Chirurg, war ein Schüler von Joseph Lister, dessen antiseptische Techniken er systematisch ausbaute und entsprechende streng einzuhaltende Handlungsabfolgen und Vorgehensweisen im Operationssaal einführte (gründliches Händewaschen vor der Operation, Sterilisation der Instrumente, sterile Kleidung usw.). Er ist für viele Innovationen in der Chirurgie bekannt. Zu seinen Pionierbeiträgen zur Orthopädie zählen die erste erfolgreiche allogene Knochentransplantation (bei der Wiederherstellung eines Oberarmknochens 1881) und Knieoperationen mit dem von ihm entwickelten und nach ihm benannten Osteotom.[1] Beides wurde viel bei den damals verbreiteten Knochendeformationen aufgrund von Vitamin-D-Mangel (Rachitis) von Macewen verwendet.

Sir William Macewen (1848-1924) ". greatest achievement is probably his foundation of neurological surgery". "The present work is the only major treatise on the subject." "In this work, which has remained a classic for over 70 years, Macewen presented his results in 94 patients with intracranial infections. Of these where 5 with extradural abscesses who where operated upon, with 5 recoveries, and 19 with brain abscesses who were operated upon, with 19 recoveries. Since then these results have remained a challenge for surgeons treating intracranial abscesses." H.Wilkins. "Macewen studied medicine at Glasgow. As an undergraduate he studied under Lister, and at the early age of twenty - eight he became a full surgeon to the Glasgow Royal Infirmanry . Lister was the sole architect of the antiseptic system, but Macewen must be regarded as one of the principial architects of the aseptic system."
