Overview

Boerhaave syndrome was first described by the physician Herman Boerhaave, Professor of Medicine at Leiden University, in a publication entitled “History of a Grievous Disease Not Previously Described”. Hundred years ago, polish clinical researcher professor W.Jaworski was the first to describe the spiral-shaped microorganism at Cracow Jagiellonian University In 1586, Marcellus Donatus of Mantua described gastric ulcers by performing autopsies. In 1688, Johannes von Murault gave detailed description of duodenal ulcers. The appropriate therapy for intestinal perforation in typhoid fever has been controversial since the late 1880s.

Gastrointestinal perforation historical perspective

  • Boerhaave syndrome was first described by the physician Herman Boerhaave, Professor of Medicine at Leiden University, in a publication entitled “History of a Grievous Disease Not Previously Described”.[1]
  • Dr. Herman Boerhaave (1668-1738) described esophageal rupture and the subsequent mediastinal sepsis based upon his careful clinical and autopsy findings. Hundreds of references have since been written about Boerhaave's syndrome.[2]
  • Hundred years ago, polish clinical researcher professor W.Jaworski was the first to describe the spiral-shaped microorganism at Cracow Jagiellonian University
  • In 1586, Marcellus Donatus of Mantua described gastric ulcers by performing autopsies
  • In 1688, Johannes von Murault gave detailed description of duodenal ulcers.
  • In 1821, Nepveu found a relationship between gastritis and gastric cancer.
  • In 1875, G.Bottcher and M. Letulle hypothesize that ulcers are caused by bacteria.
  • In 1889, Walery Jaworski found spiral organisms in sediment washings of humans and proposed that these organisms may be involved with gastric disease.[3]
  • In late 1970, J.R Warren, a pathologist in Perth, Australia found the appearance of spiral bacteria overlying gastric mucosa.
  • In 1589, Dr. Hildanus was the first physician to discover diverticular lesion in the colon.[4]
  • In the 1700s, Alexis Littre was the first to describe diverticular diseases when he described a diverticular hernia.
  • In 1812, Dr. Meckel described the diverticulum now known as Meckel's diverticulum.
  • In 1902, Dr. Deetz provided a full description of infection of the diverticulum.
  • The appropriate therapy for intestinal perforation in typhoid fever has been controversial since the late 1880s.[5]
  • Around the turn of the century, surgery became the established mode of therapy, with a mortality of 69% based on 166 patients in the English-language medical literature, and continued to be the preferred treatment until the advent of chloramphenicol in 1948.
