Résumé

The health of world leaders is a legitimate source of concern for the global population, and for historians. Cognitive disorders may impact their mandate decisions, particularly when occurring early in office [1]. Cancer and cardio-vascular diseases may lead to disability with impossibility to carry out expected duties or unexpected death with power vacuum [2]. World history has repeatedly showed that politicians tended to keep their illnesses hidden from the public long before they became obvious [2].
