Historical Perspective
- In the early 19th century, Rokitansky described the presence of functional endometrial tissue outside of the uterine cavity in patients with ovarian and endometrial cancers.[1]
- In the 1920's, Cullen was the first to describe the histological features of endometrium in a patient with abdominal endometriosis and named the disease as adenomyoma.[1]
- In the 1920's endometriosis was differentiated from adenomyosis and Rokitansky described a case series of 23 cases with chocolate cyst of the ovary.[1]
- In the late 19th century, Sampson was the first to describe the responses of endometrium to the hormonal changes and proposed the theory of retrograde menstruation as the cause of endometriosis.[1]
