Abstract
Historically, the formation of body types by a number of authors is inextricably linked with the tissue structure of the human body and embryogenesis, as evidenced by the works of W. Sheldon and A.A. Bogomolets. Taking into account the need of modern medicine for personalized diagnostics, the goal was set: to assess the state of the interdisciplinary segment of research at the intersection of data on body types and structural features of organs and tissues.
The results obtained indicate that existing research in this area is fragmented. At the same time, the features of the histological structure of nervous, bone, connective tissue and blood were demonstrated. The results obtained indicate that existing research in this area is fragmented. At the same time, the features of the histological structure of nervous, bone, connective tissue and blood were demonstrated. The structural features of the digestive system organs of different body types are shown. Data on the male and female reproductive systems are quite widely presented.
The results obtained allow us to consider the somatotyping method in the context of modern personalized medicine. Systematization and further study of constitutional tissue patterns will be an invaluable contribution to fundamental anatomy, as a science that combines micro- and macroanatomical features of the body, which will form the fundamental basis for early diagnosis and prevention of diseases of internal organs.
