Anatomic knowledge and insight depend on the cumulative contributions of anatomists over time, and eponyms pay homage to some of these individuals.
A PubMed literature review identified 11 eponymous arteries of the brain and spinal cord.
The 11 eponyms include the artery of Adamkiewicz, the artery of Bernasconi and Cassinari, the artery of Davidoff and Schechter, the recurrent artery of Heubner, McConnell's capsular arteries, the artery of Percheron, the artery of Salmon, the Vidian artery, the arteria termatica of Wilder, the circle of Willis, and the artery of Wollschlaeger and Wollschlaeger.
Eponyms remind us of an artery's importance and can improve our clinical acumen or technique. They have become an integral part of our day-to-day vocabulary, often without our historical knowledge of these anatomists. This report reviews these histories and the anatomy to deepen our appreciation of arterial eponyms in vascular neurosurgery.
解剖学知识和洞察力取决于解剖学家随着时间的推移所做的累积贡献,而以解剖学家名字命名的术语则是对这些人的一种敬意。
通过 PubMed 文献回顾,确定了 11 条脑和脊髓的命名动脉。
这 11 个命名术语包括 Adamkiewicz 动脉、Bernasconi 和 Cassinari 动脉、Davidoff 和 Schechter 动脉、Heubner 回返动脉、McConnell 的囊动脉、Percheron 动脉、Salmon 动脉、Vidian 动脉、Wilder 的终动脉、Willis 环和 Wollschlaeger 和 Wollschlaeger 动脉。
命名术语提醒我们动脉的重要性,并能提高我们的临床敏锐度或技术。它们已成为我们日常词汇的一个组成部分,而我们往往不知道这些解剖学家的历史。本报告回顾了这些历史和解剖学,以加深我们对血管神经外科中动脉命名术语的理解。
