Doesn't meet WP:LISTN or WP:GNG. Has been in CAT:NN for over 8 years; hopefully we can now resolve it one way or the other. Boleyn (talk) 08:41, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Yes, it does pass WP:LISTN per WP:NEXIST – see Stedman's Medical Eponyms, for example. It's as simple as A; B; C. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:20, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Not a good article, being almost entirely sourced to a doubtful source and containing mostly obsolete terms but WP:NOTCLEANUP applies. There is a possible argument that this article and List of eponymous surgical procedures could be merged to List of eponymous medical procedures but that would require discussion elsewhere. A PubMed search for "eponym* + procedure" shows that this "...has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources" and therefore passes WP:LISTN.
