Summary
The Croatian physician Klara Dajčeva (1897–1984) is analyzed in this paper as an incentive for the identification of women within the medical corps and the introduction of a female perspective into research into the history of medicine and society in our region. Her article “On the Influence of Adrenaline on Tissue Regeneration”, published in Liječnički vjesnik in 1921, omitted in all previously published sources, is identified in this paper as the first experimental and visual publication by a woman. The feminist narrative of Klara Dajčeva, as the only feminist known so far from the Croatian medical ranks, is presented, which has been determined to function as a link between medical observation and social criticism.
