[Identifying the author of Gazi Ayintab (1926): a survey on medical geography in the southeastern province].

The Ministry of Health of the young Turkish Republic launched a project to survey the physical and organizational infrastucture of health services inherited from the Ottoman Empire. The first monography was published in 1922 by Dr. Riza Nur, the Minister of Health himself on his native Sinop province. A total of 17 reports were compiled and published before 1928, the year of latinization of the Turkish alphabet. The authors of this collection titled The Medical and Social Geography of Turkey were contemporary local health authorities. In one of these monographs published in 1976 on Gazi Ayintab the author was not noted. Our research indicates that this author was Dr. Hamdi (Kasim) Ozkan. Gazi Ayintab is reviewed briefly.
