	The work shows one of the less known issues related to the January Uprising, regarding helping insurgents injured in the fighting. These activities were much more difficult, which prompted Polikarp Girsztowt and other members of the Medical Commission to establish the institution of “wandering surgery”. It also presents profi les of doctors and documentation of their work, which in various forms was transmitted even to foreign periodicals - here Austrian ones, which allowed wider circles of European society to become familiar with the problems they encountered.
