Career

Hidden specialised in surgery[1] and was made Chief of Clinical Surgery in 1959.[1] In 1969, she became Professor of Anatomy and taught for thirty years. She was eventually made Chief of General Surgery at the Centre hospitalier intercommunal de Poissy-Saint-Germain-en-Laye where she focused on oncology, and the lymphatic system.[2][3][4] She was the first to demonstrate that lymph node transplantation could be a safe procedure.[1]

In 1979, Hidden joined together with other lymphology researchers to establish the European Society of Lymphology.[5] She served as President in 1983, and helped to organise several critical scientific conferences.[1]
