Pierre Augustin Béclard (October 12, 1785 – March 16, 1825) was a French anatomist and surgeon who was a native of Angers. He was the father of physiologist Jules-Auguste Béclard (1817-1887). He was a professor of anatomy in Paris and chief surgeon at Pitié Hospital, and in 1818 he was appointed to the chair of anatomy. He was considered a brilliant lecturer. With Jules Germain Cloquet (1790–1883), he translated William Lawrence's work on hernias from English into French as ''Traité des hernies''. Pierre Béclard is credited with introducing new amputative and surgical practices, performing in 1823 an extirpation of the parotid gland.〔(Bibliography of Béclard ) @ Who Named It〕 His name is lent to the eponymous "Béclard's nucleus", defined as the core of ossification in the cartilage of the distal epiphysis of the femur during the latter part of fetal life. It is used in forensic medicine to determine the age of a fetus or newborn infant.〔(Béclard's core of bone ) @ Who Named It〕 == Additional eponyms == * Beclard's anastomosis: or ''arcus raninus'', An anastomosis between the right and the left end-branch of the deep lingual artery. * Béclard's hernia: A femoral hernia through the opening of the saphenous vein. * Béclard's triangle: An area whose boundaries are the posterior border of the hyoglossus, the posterior belly of the digastric muscle and the greater horn of the hyoid bone.〔(Mondofacto Dictionary ) Béclard's triangle, anastomosis & hernia〕 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「Pierre Augustin Béclard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
