Three Eponyms are listed below:

A referred pain or feeling of distress in region of heart or stomach upon continuous firm pressure over McBurney's point, in appendicitis.

2. Cabot's ring bodies - They are delicate threadlike inclusions in the red blood cells in the peripheral blood of some patients with severe/megaloblastic anaemia. They may appear as rings, figures-of-eight, or twisted. They are blue-staining. Their origin is unknown.
