Historical Perspective

Discovery

[Sheehan syndrome] was first discovered by [Leon Konrad Gliński, though it was named after Harold Sheehan. ], about a century ago].

It is still one of the most common causes of hypopituitarism in developing countries but it's prevalence is decreased in developed countries because of improved obstetrical care. Mostly, PPH leading to severe hypotension or shock results in Sheehan's syndrome.[1]]
