Medical giants are those individuals who have contributed something to which posterity must pay tribute. Like all of humanity, these giants are mortal but their legacy is history itself. The memory of those we have loved and lost is instilled deeply into the literature of science and medicine. Some leave their legacies in physical signs and symptoms, such as Homan’s Sign, named after John Homan or Dietl’s Crisis named after Josef Dietl. Some physicians rise to such exalted heights that a disease is named in their honor, such as Bright’s Disease for Richard Bright or Peyronie’s Disease for Baron de la Peyronie. All of these methods are shortcuts of history to associate something with someone, a method of enshrinement.
