In 1878 he became a member of the ''Académie de Médecine''. At Hôpital Necker he held clinics that were attended by students worldwide In 1907, he along with urologists from Europe, the United States and South America established the ''Association Internationale d'Urologie''. In 1979 he was commemorated on a postage stamp, issued by France on the occasion of the 18th Congress of the ''Association Internationale d'Urologie'', held in Paris. The Hôpital Félix Guyon, located in Saint-Denis, Réunion, is named in his honour.〔(WHAT FUTURE FOR OLD HOSPITAL FELIX GUYON? ) Hôpital Félix Guyon. 31 July 2010〕 Although he was primarily known for work with genitourinary anatomy, Guyon is credited with the discovery of the ulnar canal at the wrist. This canal channels blood vessels and the ulnar nerve from the forearm to the hand, and is now known as Guyon's canal. Ulnar nerve compression at this location is sometimes referred to as "Guyon's tunnel syndrome".〔 == Additional eponyms == * "Guyon's isthmus": an elongated constriction of the junction of the body and cervix. * "Guyon's sign": ballottement of the kidney * "Guyon's urethrotome": a variant of Maisonneuve's urethrotome. 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「Jean Casimir Félix Guyon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
