History

• 1913, the symptoms of rapid emptying of the stomach after surgery was first described by Hertz.
• 1920, the term "dumping" was made known by Andrew and Mix.
• 1948, a British surgeon named Dr. A Hedely Visick developed a classification for dumping syndrome. This helps distinguish dumping syndrome from non-dumping syndrome.
• 1970, Norwegian Dr. Helge Sigstad developed a diagnostic index for dumping syndrome. This helps distinguish early dumping syndrome from late dumping syndrome.
