Overview
Historical perspective
- Roman encyclopedist Aulus Cornelius Celsus described was the first to describe band ligation treatment for hemorrhoidal bleeding.
- In the 1700s, Alexis Littre was the first to describe diverticular diseases, where he reported "diverticular hernia" without explaining it.[1]
- In 1885, Allchin gave a detailed description of ulcerative colitis for the first time.[2]
- Until 1967, mesenteric ischemia was a diagnostic dilemma.[3]
- In 1887, Welch proposed that ischemic bowel changes occur secondary to 80% stenosis of superior mesenteric artery (SMA).[4]
- In 1849, Jean Cruveilheir, a French anatomist, was the first to describe in detail the diverticular herniations through the muscular wall of the colon.
- In 1913 Giovanni Battista Morgagni (1682-1771) and by Scottish physician T. Kennedy Dalziel described inflammatory bowel diseases in detail for the first time.
- In 1936, Dunphy was the first one to establish an association between mesenteric artery occlusion and gut infarction.
- In 1963, Boley was the first to describe ischemic colitis as a vascular occlusion of the colon.
