Overview
Before 1800 A.D. horseshoe kidney regarded as curiosity found only at postmortem examination.However with the advent of the roentgen rays and the intravenous pyelography the diagnostic possibilities to recognize the horseshoe kidney improved, which was later on aided by the ultrasound and computed tomography scan by which horseshoe kidney can be easily diagnosed.
Historical Perspective
Discovery
Before 1800 A.D. horseshoe kidney regarded as curiosity found only at postmortem examination.
- Horseshoe kidney was first discovered or documented by Jacopo Berengario da Carpi, a Carpiani Physician, in 1522 /during/following [event]."cris.maastrichtuniversity.nl".
- Horseshoe Kidney was first described and illustrated by Leonardo Botallo, in 1564.
- Later on,Leonard Doldius in Nürnberg in the year 1602,described the horseshoe kidney during a postmortem examination.
- In 1761,Giovanni Battista Morgagni gave an accurate survey and mentioned cases which had already been published.
- In 1908, diagnosis of horseshoe kidney was first described by Israel by careful Physical Examination.
- Gutierrez introduced the horseshoe kidney pyelographic triangle by using the intravenous pyelogram.[1]
- Boreham and Gammelgaard, advised aortography in the final diagnosis and as an aid for planning the surgery.
- In 1964, Falor and Rafflo described the value and limitations of aortogram and urography in the association of horseshoe kidney and abdominal aneurysm.
- The association between [important risk factor/cause] and [disease name] was made in/during [year/event].
- In [year], [scientist] was the first to discover the association between [risk factor] and the development of [disease name].
- In [year], [gene] mutations were first implicated in the pathogenesis of [disease name].
Outbreaks
There have been several outbreaks of [disease name], which are summarized below:
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- In 1909, division of the renal isthmus was first done by Martinow, to separate the fused kidney,later on detail described by Rovsing in 1911, followed by a modification by Papin in 1922.
- In 1940,Foley advised nephropexy in addition to synphsiotomy.
- In 1962, Felton and Miller reported a successful resection of aortic aneurysm associated with the horseshoe kidney stating that there is no hazard in the division of isthmus to gain access.
- In 1933, although Voronoy performed the first human cadaveric kidney transplantation was performed but the first successful kidney transplantation was performed in Boston by Murray, Merrill and Harrison in 1954.
Impact on Cultural History
Famous Cases
The following are a few famous cases of horseshoe kidney:
- Natalie Baitson, a famous singer from Gibraltar.
