This book provides a comprehensive overview of the anatomical eponyms in use in anatomy and in clinical disciplines. It includes brief descriptions of those to whom eponyms were given with personal data, their relevant publications and illustrations. For the illustrations, engravings, portraits or photographs are included as well as examples of the original illustrations or newer ones showing what is meant by a certain eponym. The book contains three Sections: Section I The Classical Anatomical Eponyms, in which the major classical eponyms on arteries, bands, bodies, bundles, canals, corpuscles, ducts, fasciae, fibres, folds, foramina, fossae, ganglia, glands, ligaments, membranes, muscles, nerves, nodes, nuclei, plexuses, spaces, triangles, tubercles, valves and veins are summarized. This Section clearly shows that in various countries, different eponyms are given for the same structure. Section II lists the anatomical eponyms together with some relevant histological, embryological and anthropological eponyms, from A-Z. In Section III, anatomical eponyms in use in Abdominal Surgery, Dentistry, Neurology, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Oncology, Ophthalmology, Orthopaedics, Otology, Phlebology, and Radiology of the Digestive System are discussed. Sections II and III are both abundantly illustrated.

The book is intended for advanced medical students, anatomists, and clinicians using anatomical eponyms in their daily practice. Unique to the book is the combination of descriptions of the anatomical eponyms with illustrations.

Über Autor(innen)

Hans J. ten Donkelaar (1946) studied Medicine at the University of Nijmegen (The Netherlands), where he received his M.D. (1974) and Ph.D. (1975). In 1978, he was appointed Associate Professor of Neuroanatomy at the Department of Anatomy and Embryology of that University. With Rudolf Nieuwenhuys and Charles Nicholson he published The Central Nervous System of Vertebrates (1998, Springer) and with Anthony Lohman an anatomy and embryology textbook in Dutch, which is now in its fourth edition (BSL/Springer Media, Houten, NL, 2014). In 1998, he came to the Department of Neurology of the Radboud University Medical Centre to do research on developmental and neurodegenerative diseases. With Martin Lammens and Akira Hori he published Clinical Neuroembryology: Development and developmental disorders of the human central nervous system (2006, Springer; 2nd edition: 2014; 3rd edition: 2023). In 2011, he published Clinical Neuroanatomy: Brain circuitry and its disorders (Springer; 2nd edition: 2020). From 2012 till 2019, he was the Coordinator of the Working Group Neuroanatomy of the Federative Programme of Anatomical Terminology (FIPAT), responsible for the Terminologia Neuroanatomica, which in 2019 became the official anatomical terminology for the nervous system and the senses. Together with David Kachlik and R. Shane Tubbs he published An Illustrated Terminologia Neuroanatomica (Springer, Cham, 2018).

Marina Quartu (1961) studied Biology at the University of Cagliari, where she received her master's degree in Biological Sciences (1983) and her doctoral degree from the PhD School in Morphological Sciences at the consortium Universities of Cagliari and Bari, Italy (1993). She was appointed Associate Professor of Human Anatomy in 2001, and Full Professor of Human Anatomy in 2019, working at the Department of Biomedical Sciences, Cagliari, Italy. She is a co-author of Italian textbooks on the human central nervous system (Genua University Press, 2010), four academic textbooks on human anatomy (edited by Minerva Medica and Pearson in 2010-2013), translated with three neuroscientists ( F. Cappello, G. Carpino and M. Papa) the 4th edition of Netter’s Neuroscience Atlas into Italian (Edra, 2022), and with M. Trucas and A. Riva, Anatomia Clavis et Clavus Medicinae. Storia dell'Anatomia nell'Università di Cagliari (UniCaPress, 2020).

David Kachlík (1974) studied Medicine at the Third Faculty of Medicine, Charles University in Prague (Czech Republic), where he received his M.D. (1998) and Ph.D. in Experimental Surgery (2006). From 1999 until 2015 he worked at the Department of Anatomy of this Faculty. In 2015. he was appointed head of the Department of Anatomy of the Second Faculty of Medicine of that University, and in 2016, full Professor of Anatomy, Histology and Embryology at that Faculty. In 2008, he published The Blood supply of the Large Intestine (Karolinum, Prague) and in 2010 with Pavel Cech, Vladimír Musil and Václav Báca Czech Anatomical Nomenclature (Ceské telovedné názvosloví; Knihovnicka.cz, Brno). From 2011 till 2020 he was a member of FIPAT.  In 2018, together with Hans J. ten Donkelaar and R. Shane Tubbs he published An Illustrated Terminologia Neuroanatomica (Springer, Cham).
