Overview

Historical Perspective

The historical perspective associated with Plummer-Vinson syndrome is as below:[1][2]107608

  • In 1543: Vesalius, a Belgian anatomist was the first to describe the anatomy of the esophagus.
  • In 1592: Fabricius Aquapendente, an Italian surgeon used wax tampers to remove foreign bodies from the esophagus.
  • In 1674: T. Willis, an English physician was the first to dilate the esophagus using whale bone.
  • In 1764: Ludlow gave the first anatomic and pathophysiological description of pharyngoesophageal diverticulum.
  • In 1806: Philipp Bozzini, a German physician developed an early endoscope, using a mirror and reflected light from a candle in an attempt to see the upper esophagus.
  • In 1843: Switzer, a Denmark physician invented esophageal dilators.
  • In 1844: John Watson, an American surgeon first performed esophagotomy for the relief of esophageal stricture.
  • In 1872: Christian Albert Theodor Billroth, an Austrian surgeon performed the first excision of the esophagus.
  • In 1883: H. Kronecker and S. Meltzer first used inserted balloons to describe esophageal motility and pressure measurements.
  • In the year 1912, Henry Plummer an American internist, was the first to describe Plummer-Vinson syndrome in a case series of patients with long-standing iron deficiency anemia, dysphagia and spasm of the upper esophagus without anatomic stenosis in his article "Diffuse dilatation of the esophagus without anatomic stenosis."
  • In the year 1919, Porter Paisley Vinson an American surgeon at the Mayo Clinic further described Plummer-Vinson syndrome in his article "A case of cardiospasm with dilatation and angulation of the esophagus." He reported a case of angulation of esophagus and attributed his findings to be consistent with the those described by Henry Plummer.
  • In the year 1919, Donald Ross Paterson and Adam Brown Kelly, both British otolaryngologist described the characteristic clinical features of Plummer-Vinson syndrome in their article "A clinical type of dysphagia" and "Spasm at the entrance of the esophagus" respectively.
  • In 1954: L.R. Celestin first developed an esophageal tube for the treatment of malignant dysphagia.
  • In 1982: D. Fleischer was the first to use endoscopic laser as palliative therapy for esophageal carcinoma.
