ABSTRACT
The development of the studies of the blood diseases at the IIIrd Department of Internal Medicine and later at the Department of Hematology of the Medical Academy and subsequently the Collegium Medicum at the Jagiellonian University in the years 1950 to 2000 are presented here. The Cracow Hematological Center, headed by professor Julian Aleksandrowicz from 1950 to 1979, by professor Julian Blicharski from 1979 to 1989, by ass. professor Jerzy Lisiewicz from 1990 to 1993, and presently by Aleksander B. Skotnicki--has drawn many brilliant hematologists who have initiated, developed and verified new concepts of pathogenesis as well as new methods of diagnosis and therapy of haematological diseases. The Polish Haematological Society was founded in 1949 in Cracow where the first Conference took place in May 1950. The first specialistic haematological journal--Haematologica Cracoviensia later retitled as Haematologica Polonica was first published in Cracow in 1957. Finally here, in Cracow, one of the first syngeneic bone marrow transplantation was performed in 1958. Presently the Chair and Department of Haematology of the Collegium Medicum at the Jagiellonian University is a modern and well facilitated center of research and didactics (both pre and post graduate studies); the modern cytological, immunophenotype, cytogenetic and molecular diagnostic methods are used in haematological patients from the Macroregion of South-Eastern Poland (inhabited by approximately 8 million people). The offered treatment includes chemo- and radiotherapy, immunotherapy and autologous and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.
