Abstract
LITTLE IS KNOWN of the early physician/anatomist Vidius Vidius (Guido Guidi). Anatomic structures named after Vidius include the Vidian nerve, artery, and canal and are well known to neurosurgeons. His anatomic treatise was printed under the title Vidi Vidii: Florentini de anatome corporis humani libri VII in a posthumous edition (1626). We report what is known regarding this historical figure of both early anatomy and medicine.
