Jean Marc Gaspard Itard

Jean Marc Gaspard Itard (April 24 1774 – July 5, 1838) was a French physician born in Provence. [Jean Itard, "Mémoire et Rapport sur Victor de l'Aveyron" (1801 et 1806) [http://classiques.uqac.ca/classiques/itard_jean/victor_de_l_Aveyron/victor.html] ]

In 1825, Itard was credited with describing the first case of Tourette syndrome in Marquise de Dampierre, a woman of nobility.Tourette Syndrome Association. [http://web.archive.org/web/20050211011302/www.tsa-usa.org/what_is/whatists.html What is Tourette syndrome?] Accessed 11 Feb 2005.]

In 1821, Itard published a major work on otology, describing the results of his medical research based on over 170 detailed cases. He is credited with the invention of the Eustachian catheter, which is sometimes known as "Itard's catheter". Numbness in the tympanic membrane during otosclerosis is referred to as the "Itard-Cholewa Symptom". [http://www.whonamedit.com/doctor.cfm/1168.html Jean Marc Gaspard Itard.] WhoNamedIt.com. Accessed 23 October 2006.]

He was also an educator of deaf children, and tried his educational theories in the celebrated case of Victor of Aveyron. However, his efforts with Victor ended up with disappointing results.
