Question 10#

Who first described the anatomical structures which cause chordee?

A. Antyllus
B. Lusitanus
C. Paré
D. Anger
E. Galen

Correct Answer is C

Comment:

Paré. Amboise Paré gives a beautiful description of chordee: “the band of the ligament of the yarde is too short so that the yarde cannot become straight and is turned downwards; in these cases the generation of children is hindered, because the seed cannot be passed directly and plentifully into the wombe.” Therefore, this ligament must be removed with much dexterity.
