Abstract
Many among us and some students have a personal idiosyncrasy to remember eponyms in clinical medicine and other subjects such as signs, tests, phenomena, and rules named after a person who originally described them. However, it is not always necessary as long as one knows what they mean. Józef Brudziński's name is given to four eponymous medical signs associated with reflexes observed in meningeal irritation along with Kernig's sign.
