Carl Toldt

Carl Toldt

Carl Toldt (May 3, 1840 - November 13, 1920) was an Austrian anatomist who was a native of Bruneck (Brunico), Bolzano-Bozen (Italy).

In 1864 he earned his medical doctorate in Vienna, and later was a professor of anatomy in Prague and Vienna. He was the author of the popular "Anatomischer Atlas für Studirende und Ärzte" (Atlas of Human Anatomy For Students and Physicians), which has been 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.
