Sir Richard Owen was an Hunterian Professor of Royal College of Surgeons of England. Couple of decades later a Swedish Medical student Ivor Sandstorm discovered the parathyroid in humans. @RCSnews @RCSEd @BAETS_UK @AmCollSurgeons @DGHisham @TheAAES.
International Parathyroid Awareness Day! This day commemorates Sir Richard Owen's birth in 1804. He is renowned for his discovery of the parathyroid glands in the Indian Rhinoceros back in 1852. #CheckYourCalcium #PAM2025 @TheAACE @ParaTroupers1 @TheEndoSociety
