- Herbert Alexander Haxton FRCS FRSE (1913 – 30 April 2009) was a Scottish surgeon to the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital and the Manchester North Hospital and Crumpsall Hospital. He contributed to surgical techniques of suturing and investigated the function of the sympathetic nervous system in the sweating conditions hyperhidrosis and gustatory hyperhidrosis. In his early career he published research on the ankle, elbow, hip, knee and ankle joints and he taught anatomy at St Andrews University, where he demonstrated that the kneecap was not just to protect the knee but important for straightening the leg. He gave three Arris and Gale Lectures at the Royal College of Surgeons of England, and was elected to a Hunterian Professorship in 1946. In 1971 he published his book Surgical Techniques. In the same year he was elected fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. (en)
