Riolani Responsio ad eadem Experimenta nova Anatomica refutatur; & Inventis recentibus canalis Virsungici demonstratur usus; & Lacteum ad Mammas à Receptaculo iter indigitatur" Pecquet's famous work recording his discovery of the cisterna chyli. First published at Paris in 1651 this edition has the important 'De thoracicis lacteis dissertatio' added. Written against Jean Riolan the dissertatio is dedicated to Thomas Bartholin who on the basis of Pecquet's discoveries was able to confirm and extend them to cover the entire lymphatic system. "Pecquet. engaged not in the "mute and frozen science" of cadaver anatomy but in anatomia animata on dogs cattle pigs and sheep. Using a dog that was digesting he showed the following: 1. If the heart has been resected pressure on the mesenteric root causes the chyle to spurt into the superior vena cava. 2. The chyle is directed toward the subclavian veins by two paravertebral canals that swell when their distal extremities are ligatured. 3. The origin of the ascending chyliferous ducts is situated in a prevertebral and subdiaphragmatic ampulla. 4. The posterior part of Aselli's pancreas is composed of lymphatic ganglia. 5. No mesenteric chyliferous vessel goes to the liver. and the interior vena cava incised above the liver reveals no trace of chyle. The human thoracic duct was rediscovered by Thomas Bartholin Rudbeck and Gayant. With Perrault and Gayant Pecquet eventually observed the communications of the human thoracic duct with the lumbar veins. Pecquet's discovery was received with great interest and provoked sharp debate particularly with Riolan" DSB. Besides the newly added dissertatio this edition contains further treatises supporting Pecquet's findings and another elaborate refutation of Riolan.

In his experiments with live dogs Pecquet discovered the thoracic duct and chyle reservoir receptaculum chylii which had been sought after since Aselli's discovery of the chyliferous vessels lacteals in dogs in 1627. Pecquet correctly described the termination of the chyliferous vessels Aselli's "lacteal veins" in the chyle reservoir refuting the erroneous notion that the vessels ended in the liver; he also described the junction of the thoracic duct at the union of the jugular and subclavical veins. Pecquet's discovery clarified for the first time the process of absorption in digestion. Garrison-Morton.com 1094. Norman 1676. Norman One Hundred Books Famous in Medicine 28A. </p> .
