Abstract
December 7, 2021 marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of Dmitry Dmitrievich Pletnev. Being an outstanding therapist, a talented clinician-researcher of internal diseases, a thinker and teacher, a brilliant speaker, one of the founders of cardiology as a separate area in the domestic medicine – D.D.Pletnev had a huge potential that he was not destined to fulfill. His fate was tragic – he was arrested under a fabricated “case” in 1937 and shot in 1941. His name was trampled into the mud and anathematized for many years. And only 47 years later, in 1985, D.D.Pletnev was rehabilitated completely through the efforts of many caring people. He was rehabilitated posthumously “due to the absence of the event of the crime”. The article presents a brief biography and history of the rehabilitation of the honor of D.D.Pletnev*.
