Carmalt splinter forceps: a useful instrument.

Abstract

Most dermatologic surgeons have favourite instruments that they like to use. One of mine is the Carmalt splinter forceps. These forceps are short (about 10 cm in length) and have triangular pointed tips with serrations that are kept in alignment by a small pin at the broadest area of the tip.

[In memory of our Jewish colleagues who were murdered or committed suicide during the National Socialist Era].

With this article, we commemorate our Jewish colleagues who were murdered or committed suicide during the National Socialist Era in 1933-1945. Additionally, this article should provide an impulse to create a worthy memorial place. We thereby propose to put up commemorative plaques, e.g. in front of the administrative office of the German Dermatologic Society. Fifty-six Jewish dermatologists were killed in concentration camps in the National Socialist Era; 23 died in Theresienstadt, 19 in Auschwitz, and 14 in other concentration or extermination camps. Thirteen Jewish dermatologists committed suicide.
