Lucien-Marie Pautrier (2 August 1876, in Aubagne – 9 July 1959, in Strasbourg) was a French dermatologist.

Biography

He studied medicine in Marseille and Paris, where he was steered towards dermatology by Émile Leredde, and subsequently worked with dermatologist Louis-Anne-Jean Brocq at the Hôpital Saint-Louis. He served as a medical officer to a field artillery regiment in World War I, during which, he was awarded the Croix de Guerre for bravery and became a chevalier in the Légion d’Honneur (1916).[1]

Following the end of hostilities, he became a professor of dermatology at the University of Strasbourg, where he established a worldwide reputation. In 1942 he accepted the chair of dermatology at the University of Lausanne, and after World II, returned as a professor to Strasbourg, where he retired two years later. In retirement, he pursued interests in art and music, and founded the Société des Amis de la Musique in Strasbourg.[1][2]

His name is associated with the term "Pautrier's microabscesses" in mycosis fungoides, even though he was not the first to describe them.[2] Other dermatological terms that contain his name are:
