"The most important pediatric treatise of this early period" Abt-Garrison History of Pediatrics p.87. "This pioneer work on the pathological anatomy of infants includes interesting observations on cerebral congestion intestinal disturbances the pulse teething etc. It includes the first classification of infantile diseases of any importance" Garrison-Morton-Norman 6332 describing the Paris 1828 edition. "The most important Billard work clearly was the Traité the first pediatric work to classify diseases based upon pathology and utilizing an organ-specific organization. After discussing neonatal skin coloration length and weight facial expression cry and pulse he classified diseases into categories such as skin including exanthems leprosy and anthrax digestive organs abdominal viscera airways circulation cerebrospinal system locomotion reproductive organs lymphatics eyes jaundice blood abnormalities and congenital abnormalities. He provided detailed analysis of eighty-six autopsied cases covering a wide array of congenital and acquired conditions. Among the many now familiar disorders included is the first description of neonatal gangrenous enterocolitis today's necrotizing enterocolitis and description of kernicterus in four infants. Charles-Michel Billard changed the trajectory of pediatrics by establishing an objective scientific basis for ailments of neonates and young children recognized throughout Europe and North America. Modern pediatrics and pediatric pathology are greatly indebted to Billard's monumental efforts and observations and he should be included in the pantheon of pediatrics."
