Who was Carl Toldt?
Carl Toldt was an Austrian anatomist who was a native of Bruneck, Tyrol.
In 1864 he earned his medical doctorate in Vienna, and was later a professor of anatomy in Prague and Vienna. He was the author of the popular Anatomischer Atlas für Studirende und Ärzte, a work that was later translated into English.
His name is lent to the following four anatomical eponyms:
"Toldt's fascia": Continuation of Treitz's fascia behind the body of the pancreas.
"Toldt's fascia flap": A recent technique for repairing large diaphragmatic hernias.
"Toldt's membrane": The anterior layer of the renal fascia.
"White line of Toldt": Lateral reflection of posterior parietal peritoneum of abdomen over the mesentery of the ascending and descending colon.
