Abstract
Hieronymus Fabricius ab Aquapendente (1533–1619) described the homonymous bursa in the “De Formatione Ovi et Pulli”, published posthumously in 1621. He also included a figure in which the bursa was depicted. We here present the figure of the bursa of Fabricius, along with corrections of some mislabeling still presents in some anastatic copies. The bursa of Fabricius is universally known as the origin of B-lymphocytes; morphogenetical and physiological issues are also considered.
