Abstract
Based on contemporary medical journals, the author examines the numerous ailments that afflicted Louis XIV and underlines the impoverishment of the medical art at a time when physicians' power was sovereign and when treatments were as bizarre as they were painful. This historical journey also serves as a pretext to examine current developments in the field of microsurgery, which can cure health disorders that were considered inaccessible to anatomical and functional amelioration.
