Answer

The answer to his medical works gaining prominence in medieval Europe lies in the process of translation. Gerard of Cremona, an Italian scholar, played a pivotal role in translating Avicenna's works from Arabic into Latin, making them accessible to Western scholars and medical practitioners. This translation effort facilitated the dissemination of Avicenna's medical knowledge throughout Europe, shaping the development of medicine in the region during that time.
