About Jean-François Jarjavay
- Jean-François Jarjavay (25 April 1815 – 22 April 1868) was a French anatomist and surgeon who was a native of Savignac-les-Églises in the department of Dordogne.
- He practised medicine at the Hôpital Lourcine and Hôpital Beaujon in Paris, and in 1859 became a professor of anatomy. In 1867 Jarjavay provided the first description of the morbid processes associated with subacromial bursitis, a disorder also known as subacromial impingement syndrome.
- His name is lent to "Jarjavay's ligament", which is a fold of peritoneum that is also known as a sacrouterine fold, and "Jarjavay's muscle", which is a structure arising from the ramus of the ischium and inserted into the constrictor muscle of the vagina.
