Alfred Jaretzki III (August 11, 1919 – May 29, 2014) was an American surgeon and medical professor. Early in his career, he co-authored a seminal journal article on developing synthetic vascular glands, which informed the growth of practices in aortic aneurysm surgery.[1] Jaretzki served as a professor of clinical surgery at the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, a lecturer at the Columbia Presbyterian Hospital, and led the task force of the Medical Scientific Advisory Board of the Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America.[2]
