Two of the four brothers Borgarucci were medical doctors and in one way or another, be it distantly, connected with the great master Vesalius. Giulio Borgarucci was a physician, who became a Calvinist and emigrated to England where he treated many noblemen and friends of Queen Elisabeth I. He was present at a conversation between the Italian writer and traveler Pietro Bizzari and the Venetian jeweler who witnessed Vesalius' death in Zakynthos. Prospero Borgarucci became professor of anatomy and surgery in Padua, some 20 years after Vesalius. He published several treatises on anatomy, pestilential disease, and materia medica. Prospero Borgarucci became physician to Queen Catherine de Medicis in France, and to Archduke Karl II of Habsburg in Graz. His most important work is the so-called Chirurgia Magna of Vesalius. Text and illustrations of this spurious Vesalian work point to the use of passages of the Epitome, surgical college notes and copied Vesalian images in Borgarucci's Chirurgia Magna.
博尔加鲁奇四兄弟中有两人是医生，他们或多或少都与伟大的医学大师维萨里有联系，尽管这种联系较为间接。朱利奥·博尔加鲁奇是一名医生，后来成为加尔文教徒并移民到英国，在那里他为许多贵族和伊丽莎白一世女王的朋友治病。他当时在场，听到了意大利作家兼旅行家彼得罗·比扎里与一位威尼斯珠宝商的对话，这位珠宝商亲眼目睹了维萨里在扎金索斯岛的死亡。大约在维萨里去世20年后，普罗斯佩罗·博尔加鲁奇成为帕多瓦大学的解剖学和外科学教授。他发表了多篇关于解剖学、瘟疫和药物学的论文。普罗斯佩罗·博尔加鲁奇曾担任法国凯瑟琳·德·美第奇女王以及奥地利格拉茨的哈布斯堡大公卡尔二世的御医。他最重要的作品是所谓的维萨里《大外科学》。这部伪造的维萨里作品中的文字和插图表明，博尔加鲁奇的《大外科学》使用了《摘要》中的段落、外科医学院的笔记以及复制的维萨里图像。
