Overview

Historical Perspective

Discovery

  • Portal vein thrombosis was first discovered by Balfour and Stewart in 1868.[1]
  • Herophilos, a Greek physician, was the first scientist to explain the portal venous system in human body in the 4th century B.C. “…nature made special veins which are dedicated to the nourishment of the intestine and they do not pass to the liver; these veins end in glandular bodies, while all the other veins are carried back to the portae...”, he mentioned.[2]
  • In 1319, Mondino de Liuzzi (Mundinus), an Italian surgeon, published the textbook named "Anhotomia" and described the anatomy of liver vascular system for the first time. The book was the most reliable textbook of anatomy for about 200 years and been partially modified by Avicenna (1000 years ago).
  • In 1543, Andreas van Wesel (Andrea Vesalio in Latin), Flemish anatomist, described portal system accurately for the first time in his textbook called “De humani corporis fabrica”.[3]
  • In 1650, Francis Glisson, a British physician, demonstrated the portal circulation for the first time, using goat as study model.[4]
  • In 1761, Giovani Battista Morgagni, an Italian anatomist, described the characteristics of cirrhotic liver in his precious textbook named "De sedibus and causis morborum per anatomen indagatis".[5]
  • In 1819, Renè Laennec, a French physician, coined the term cirrhosis in his textbook, from antique Greek words of "Skirros" (hard, fibrotic) and "Kirrhos" (yellowish). He also mentioned his new invention "stethoscope" in the textbook.[3]
  • In 1868, G201210A mutations were first implicated in the pathogenesis of portal vein thrombosis.[1]
