Anatomy and Histology of the Pancreas
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The pancreas was one of the last organs in the abdomen to receive the critical attention of anatomists, physiologists, physicians, and surgeons. [1] [2] It was first referred to as the “finger of the liver” in the Talmud, written between 200 BC and 200 AD. Galen named it (though Ruphos, circa 100 AD, should probably be credited), and thought the pancreas served to support and protect blood vessels. Vesalius considered the organ a cushion for the stomach. Little further information was available until Wirsung demonstrated the pancreatic ducts of humans in 1642 and de Graaf discovered pancreatic secretion from the pancreatic fistula of dogs in 1664.
