Overview
Throughout history, many renowned researchers and health care professionals have contributed to the understanding, definition, and treatment of pulmonary embolism. Though the first documented case of pulmonary embolism occurred in 1837, historical record of thrombotic disease dates as far back as the 7th century BCE.[1]
Historical Perspective
| Year | Event |
| 600-1000 BCE | Ayurveda physician and surgeon, Sushruta, makes the first written reference to thrombotic disease in a patient. He notes the patient's condition as having had a "swollen and painful leg which was difficult to treat". |
| 1837 | French pathologist Jean Cruveilhier documents the first case report on pulmonary embolism. |
| 1922 | Researchers publish a description of pulmonary embolism characteristics visible within a chest x-ray. |
| Prior to 1930 | The practicing consensus viewed a pulmonary embolism as universally fatal. They believed surgery was the only treatment despite an operative mortality of 100%. |
| 1935 | Researchers begin to utilize heparin in clinical trials aimed at treating pulmonary embolisms. |
| 1940 | Researchers, Hampton and Castleman, describe the radiographic appearance of pulmonary embolisms and pulmonary infarctions. These observations are later referred to as Hampton's hump. |
| 1960 | Barritt et al demonstrate that anticoagulant therapy reduces death and recurrent venous thromboembolism in patients with pulmonary embolism.[2] |
| 1977 | Physician Eugene Robin published a landmark article recommending the use of pulmonary angiography as an approach to diagnosing pulmonary embolism.[3] |
| 1995 | Goodman et al. compared Helical CT angiography (CTA) with pulmonary angiography in patients with unresolved suspicion for pulmonary thromboembolism.[4] |
| 2005 | CT replaced scintigraphy as the noninvasive test of choice for suspected pulmonary thromboembolism.[5] |
