NOTES
The 1926 French Étude and the 1925 English Rejuvenation by Grafting together constitute the principal monographs of Voronoff’s practice. Both are constructed as exposition and case description rather than controlled investigation. They were the documents that international partner surgeons referenced in licensing the protocol and that European elite patients consulted when researching the procedure. As records of how the practice was framed at its peak, both books are essential primary sources; as evidence of efficacy, both are uncontrolled, selection-biased, and constructed for promotional and instructional purposes.
