Felix Jacob Marchand (22 October 1846 - 4 February 1928) was a German pathologist born in Halle an der Saale. He studied medicine in Berlin, and later became an assistant at the pathological institute in Halle. In 1881 he became a professor of pathological anatomy in Giessen, and two years later garnered the same position at Marburg. In 1900 he succeeded pathologist Felix Victor Birch-Hirschfeld (1842-1899) at the University of Leipzig. In 1904 Marchand is credited with coining the term atherosclerosis from the Greek "athero", meaning gruel, and "sclerosis", meaning hardening, to describe the fatty substance inside a hardened artery. His name is lent to the eponymous "Marchand's adrenals", which is accessory adrenal tissue in the broad ligament of the uterus. Among his written works is a 1915 textbook on pathology that he co-authored with Ludolf von Krehl (1861-1937), called "''Handbuch der allgemeinen Pathologie''". == References == * "This article incorporates information based on a translation of an equivalent article at the German Wikipedia". * (Journal of the American College of Cardiology ) Evolving Concepts of Dyslipidemia, Atherosclerosis, and Cardiovascular Disease * (''Felix Jacob Marchand'' ) at Who Named It 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Felix Jacob Marchand」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
