西奥多·希罗尼穆斯·巴斯特（1890-1959）：其对耳部解剖学的贡献

文献信息

中文摘要

目的： 回顾西奥多·希罗尼穆斯·巴斯特（1890-1959）的生平、科学成就及其对耳部解剖学、胚胎学和耳科学的持久贡献。
研究设计： 历史回顾。
方法： 回顾与西奥多·H·巴斯特的学术生涯及内耳解剖学研究相关的已发表科学文章。
结果： 耳科解剖学的进展加深了对内耳复杂结构及其生理功能的理解。西奥多·H·巴斯特通过其对迷路微观结构、前庭系统神经组织以及颞骨发育解剖学的研究，在这一领域做出了重要贡献。特别是，他对椭圆囊-内淋巴瓣（巴斯特瓣）的描述为内淋巴动力学调节和内耳压力平衡提供了重要见解。通过其广泛的解剖学研究，巴斯特为后续前庭生理学及相关疾病的研究提供了信息。
结论： 西奥多·H·巴斯特是一位对耳科学做出重要贡献的解剖学家。通过对内耳、颞骨和前庭系统的研究，他帮助推进了胚胎学和临床耳科学的知识。

英文摘要

OBJECTIVE: To review the life, scientific achievements, and enduring contributions of Theodore Hieronymus Bast (1890-1959) to ear anatomy, embryology, and otology.
STUDY DESIGN: Historical review.
METHODS: Published scientific articles related to Theodore H. Bast's academic career and anatomic investigations of the inner ear were reviewed.
RESULTS: Advances in otological anatomy have deepened understanding of the intricate structures of the inner ear and their physiological functions. Theodore H. Bast made significant contributions to this area through his studies of the labyrinth's microscopic structure, the neural organization of the vestibular system, and the developmental anatomy of the temporal bone. In particular, his description of the utriculo-endolymphatic valve (Bast's valve) provided important insights into the regulation of endolymph dynamics and inner ear pressure balance. Through his extensive anatomic studies, Bast helped inform subsequent research on vestibular physiology and related disorders.
CONCLUSION: Theodore H. Bast was an anatomist who made significant contributions to otology. Through his investigations of the inner ear, temporal bone, and vestibular system, he helped advance knowledge in both embryologic and clinical otology.
