Overview
Pott's disease is named after Percivall Pott (1714–1788), a London surgeon who trained at St Bartholomew's Hospital, London.
Historical Perspective
- Spinal Tuberculosis is one of the oldest disease and was found in bone samples from five Iron age individuals recovered from a cemetry in Aymyrlyg, South Siberia. The spine lesions demonstrated a positive DNA PCR amplification for mycobacterium bovis, this shows that the infection was present 2000 years ago.[1]
- In 1779, Sir Percival Pott described the classic features of spinal tuberculosis: destruction of the intervertebral discs, body of the vertebra resulting in progressive kyphosis and named the disease Pott's disease.[2]
