The Monros of the University of Edinburgh reigned over anatomy instruction for over a century. The last of these men, Monro Tertius, was the weaker teacher of the family but still contributed to the anatomical and surgical literature. Herein, we describe the life of Alexander Monro Tertius and his writings, particularly on childhood hydrocephalus.
Monro Tertius will not be remembered as a great anatomist or teacher. However, he collected and published important books on his observations and those of others on hydrocephalus. These texts contained the knowledge of his era on this topic.
爱丁堡大学的门罗家族统治解剖学教学长达一个多世纪。其中最后一位,即第三代门罗,虽是家族中教学能力较弱的一位,但仍为解剖学和外科学文献做出了贡献。在此,我们将讲述亚历山大·第三代门罗的生平及其著作,特别是关于儿童脑积水方面的著作。
第三代门罗不会被铭记为伟大的解剖学家或教师。然而,他收集并出版了关于他自己以及他人对脑积水观察的重要书籍。这些文本包含了他那个时代关于这一主题的知识。
