Howard Christian Naffziger (1884-1961) was an American neurosurgeon, noted for his invention of the orbital decompression procedure, to alleviate intraocular pressure that occurs in goiter and other conditons. Naffziger's contributions to the field of neurosurgery were many. He reported on treatment of subdural hematoma, spinal cord injuries, skull fractures, and the surgical treatment of exophthalmos in patients with Graves' disease. A phenomenon of shoulder and upper extremity pain related to hypertrophied scalene muscle would become known as Naffziger syndrome after he described a technique for surgical scaleniotomy.
