V originále
A medical and anthropological analysis of skeletal remains (of over 1000 individuals) from the cemetery in Brno, which was used as the burial place between 1785 and 1883. In the study were used classical descriptive and metric anthropological methods, radiographic, histological and genetic examinations. The part of study reported here dealt with a group of inflammatory manifestations on bones due mainly to specific processes and non-specific purulent osteomyelitis. Inflammatory changes were found on skeletal remains of 6,2% of a total number individuals. The most of inflammations about 60% represented manifestations of syphilitic processes. The traces of tuberculous processes occurred in 27%. The diagnosis of purulent osteomyelitis was supported only in the 13%. The findings obtained in this study serve as one of the sources for a comparison between historical osteological material and iconographic and contemporaneous written documents.
In Czech
Na kosterních pozůstatcích z brněnského Městského hřbitova (1785-1883) byly nalezeny zánětlivé změny u 6,2% skelet. Nejčastji (60%) byly zaznamenány stopy po syfilis, a to jak po získané, tak i po vrozené formě této nemoci. Na studovaných skeletech byly rovnž nalezeny známky kostní tuberkulózy (27%), především Pottovy choroby. Ze zánětlivých projevů byly stopy po purulentní osteomyelitidě, zejména sekundární poúrazové infekci, nalezeny jen zřídka (13%).
