Overview
The Israeli gynecologist Joseph Asherman is credited with describing and characterizing the disease, hence it is called Asherman syndrome.
Historical Perspective
Intrauterine adhesions were first described in 1894 by Heinrich Fritsch (Fritsch, 1894)[1] and further characterized and described by the gynecologist Joseph Asherman in 1948 [2]. Asherman though that intrauterine adhesions may be linked to prior endometrial trauma. He later published more case series of intrauterine adhesions with documented results of hysterography, with evident filling defects. It is also known as Fritsch syndrome, or Fritsch-Asherman syndrome.
