- Pierre Louis Alphée Cazenave
Pierre Louis Alphée Cazenave (1795-1877) was a French dermatologist who practiced medicine at the Hôpital Saint-Louis in Paris.
Cazenave was a student of Laurent-Théodore Biett, a physician who introduced into France the diagnostic approach for analysis of skin disorders. This method was first developed by two English physicians, Robert Willan and Thomas Bateman. In 1828 Cazenave published Biett's lectures ("Abregé pratique des maladies de la peau"). This compilation was to become a highly influential text regarding dermatology in the mid-19th century. From 1844 until 1852, Cazenave was editor of "Annales des Maladies de la Peau et de la Syphilis", which was the first French journal of dermatology.
From Biett's lectures, Cazenave gave a detailed description of a disease he called lupus erythematosus; and in 1844 he described pemphigus foliaceus.
