In addition to practical activity, N. devoted much time to scientific-literary work, primarily in the Polish language; he invented numerous instruments and proposed several operations and operative modifications (for example, the operation for prolapse of the uterus—colporrhaphia mediana). - N.-son (Franz Ludwigovich, 1856–1914) received his medical education at the Warsaw and Dorpat Universities, then specialized abroad for three years.
