The Geneva physician Théodore Tronchin (1709-1801) was one of the best known physicians in Europe. Some copies of his letters giving medical advice to his patients all over the world are preserved in the University Library of Geneva. One of them dated 1763 was chosen as an example of Tronchin's dealings with his patients. In it Tronchin gives his opinion about the venereal disease transmitted to princess Marie-Thérèse of Hohenzollern-Hechingen (1732-1802) by her husband. Tronchin prescribed treatment based on mercury and sudorific plants.
