| Description: | Medicine has a fascinating array of words and terminologies to describe the various parts of the human body as well as the diseases that afflict us and the ways in which they present themselves. Beyond using common English words, medicine has long resorted to using eponyms - usually the names of people who discovered or were afflicted by the phenomenon described, to tag diseases, body parts, and symptoms. We aim to present you with a comprehensive list of medical eponyms broken down into signs, syndromes, and other medical eponyms. |
