"Total Cretinism, from a book by Baron Jean Louis Alibert (1768-1837)" is a historical medical illustration created by Salvadore Tresca, which depicts the condition of cretinism. Baron Jean Louis Alibert was a renowned French dermatologist and the personal physician to King Louis XVIII. Alibert made significant contributions to the field of medicine, particularly in the classification and description of skin diseases. However, his work also extended to other medical conditions, including cretinism.

Cretinism is a medical condition resulting from a severe deficiency of thyroid hormones, which can lead to stunted physical and mental growth. Historically, this condition was more prevalent in certain regions, particularly in areas with iodine-deficient soil. The illustration by Salvadore Tresca, an artist known for his medical and anatomical drawings, provides a visual representation of the symptoms and physical manifestations of cretinism as understood during the early 19th century.

The work of Alibert and the illustration by Tresca are significant in the history of medicine as they reflect the understanding and approach to medical conditions at the time. They also serve as a reminder of the progress that has been made in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of such conditions. The illustration is an important historical artifact, providing insight into the medical and artistic collaboration of the period, and it continues to be of interest to medical historians and scholars of art history.
