"Dissectione Partium Corporis Humanae" is a seminal work in the field of anatomy authored by Charles Estienne, a French anatomist and physician, in the 16th century. Published in 1545, the full title of the work is "De Dissectione Partium Corporis Humani Libri Tres," which translates to "On the Dissection of the Parts of the Human Body in Three Books." This comprehensive anatomical text is notable for its detailed and accurate descriptions of the human body, which were groundbreaking at the time.

Charles Estienne, also known by his Latinized name Carolus Stephanus, was a member of the prominent Estienne family of scholars and printers. He studied medicine in Paris and later in Padua, where he was influenced by the anatomical teachings of Andreas Vesalius, another pioneering figure in the field. Estienne's work is distinguished by its meticulous attention to detail and its use of high-quality illustrations, which were created by the artist Étienne de La Rivière. These illustrations were instrumental in conveying the complex anatomical information to readers and are considered some of the finest examples of anatomical art from the Renaissance period.

"Dissectione Partium Corporis Humanae" is divided into three books, each focusing on different aspects of human anatomy. The first book covers the bones and ligaments, the second book addresses the muscles, and the third book examines the internal organs. Estienne's approach combined direct observation from dissections with classical anatomical knowledge, bridging the gap between medieval and modern anatomical science.

The publication of this work marked a significant advancement in the study of human anatomy, contributing to the shift from reliance on ancient texts to empirical observation and dissection. Despite facing competition from Vesalius's "De humani corporis fabrica," Estienne's "Dissectione Partium Corporis Humanae" remains an important historical document, reflecting the evolving understanding of human anatomy during the Renaissance.
