Abstract
According to Fisher [1], the word infarct was first used by Laennec in 1835 to describe a pulmonary lesion that had developed in association with the occlusion of a pulmonary artery. The word “infarct” (from Latin, infarcere) means to stuff; therefore, it is unclear whether Laennec applied the term “infarctus” to describe the parenchymal pulmonary lesion or the “stuffed,” occluded pulmonary artery. Nonetheless, several years later Litten [2] used the word “infarct” to describe areas of softening in the kidney and liver that were accompanied by occlusion of the corresponding arterial branches.
