"The sphincter of Oddi is named after Ruggero Oddi (1845-1906), who described the structure in 1887. He was a physiologist at the University of Perugia who later worked in Rome as both a surgeon and anatomist ^8,9. The sphincter of Oddi was actually originally described by the English physician, Francis Glisson (1597-1677) in 1654; however a more detailed anatomical description of the sphincter components were provided by Edward Allen Boyden (1886-1976) ^8-10."
