Overview

Historical Perspective

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia first time seen in 1865 by an Italian pathologist in a man at autopsy, who had big adrenal glands and female internal organs.[1][2][3][4]

  • In 1563, Eustachius described the adrenals and then published by Lancisi in 1714.
  • In 1849, Thomas Addison, found on a bronzed appearance associated with the adrenal glands called melasma suprarenale while searching for the cause of pernicious anemia.
  • In 1855, Thomas Addison defined the clinical features and autopsy findings in 11 cases of diseases of the suprarenal capsules, and half of them were tuberculous in origin.
  • In 1856, In adrenalectomy experiments, Brown-Séquard found that the adrenal glands are nessesary for life.
  • In 1896, William Osler prepared an oral glycerin extract derived from pig adrenals and showed that it had clinical benefit in patients with Addison disease.
  • In 1905, Bulloch and Sequeira described patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
  • In 1932, Harvey Cushing associates the polyglandular syndrome of pituitary basophilism, which he first described in 1912, with hyperactivity of the pituitary-adrenal glands.
  • In 1936,The concept of stress and its effect on pituitary-adrenal function are described by Selye.
  • In 1937-1952,Isolation and structural characterization of adrenocortical hormones are reported by Kendall and Reichstein.
  • In 1943, Li and colleagues isolate pure adrenocorticotropic hormone from sheep pituitary.
  • In 1950, Hench, Kendall, and Reichstein share the Nobel Prize in Medicine for describing the anti-inflammatory effects of cortisone in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
  • In 1953,Isolation and analysis of the structure of aldosterone are reported by Simpson and Tait. In 1956, Conn describes primary aldosteronism. In 1981, Characterization and synthesis of corticotropin-releasing hormone are reported by Vale.
