Overview
Historical Perspective
Sheehan syndrome was first discovered by Leon Konrad Gliński about a century ago and it was named after Harold Sheehan(1900-1988).[1][2]
Classification
There is no established system for the classification of Sheehan's syndrome.
Pathophysiology
Causes
- Common causes of Sheehan's syndrome include massive hemorrhage, hypotension during pregnancy, vascular compression, and vascular occlusion(thrombosis, DIC). Less common causes include vascular insufficiency due to CABG in older patients and snake bites(Russell's viper bites).
