Overview

Ebstein anomaly was named after Wilhelm Ebstein, who in 1866 first described it the heart of a 19 year old patient Joseph Prescher.

Historical perspective

  • In the year 1866, Dr. Ebstein published his first case report named, "A very rare case of tricuspid regurgitation caused by a congenital defect".[1][2][3]
  • Later in year 1867, Hermann Lebert, a professor of medicine in Breslau, was probably the first to catalogue Ebstein's seminal publication.
  • It is only after 1927 that the term “Ebstein's disease” appeared in the medical literature.
  • Soloff and his colleagues in the yaer 1951 reported the case of ebstein anomaly in a patient using cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography.
