Harvey Williams Cushing named the condition Fröhlich syndrome after Alfred Fröhlich. French nationals Dr. Jean Camus (1872–1924) and Dr. Gustave Roussy (1874–1948) first undertook systematic and controlled observations of the effects of localized injuries to the basal [[hypothalamus]] in dogs and cats by pricking on their infundibulo-tuberal region (ITR) with a heated needle. This series of surgical procedures, performed from 1913 and 1922, led them to claim that both permanent [[polyuria]] and adiposogenital dystrophy are symptoms caused by damage to the ITR.

Overview

Harvey Williams Cushing named the condition Fröhlich syndrome after Alfred Fröhlich. French nationals Dr. Jean Camus (1872–1924) and Dr. Gustave Roussy (1874–1948) first undertook systematic and controlled observations of the effects of localized injuries to the basal hypothalamus in dogs and cats by pricking on their infundibulo-tuberal region (ITR) with a heated needle. This series of surgical procedures, performed from 1913 and 1922, led them to claim that both permanent polyuria and adiposogenital dystrophy are symptoms caused by damage to the ITR.

Discovery

In 1901, Harvey Williams Cushing named the condition Frohlich syndrome after Alfred Fröhlich, the first person to publish an article regarding an adiposogential syndrome seen in a young boy with a pituitary cyst. He realized that the symptoms described by Frohlich were similar to those of a female patient named Mary D he had who had a similar tumor [1]. In 1902, Harvey Williams Cushing attempted to remove the tumor but failed. The tumor was found at autopsy [1]. The French nationals Dr. Jean Camus (1872–1924) and Dr. Gustave Roussy (1874–1948) first undertook systematic and controlled observations of the effects of localized injuries to the basal hypothalamus in dogs and cats by pricking on their infundibulo-tuberal region (ITR) with a heated needle. This series of surgical procedures, performed from 1913 and 1922, led them to claim that both permanent polyuria and adiposogenital dystrophy are symptoms caused by damage to the ITR.[2]
