Overview
Sacrococcygel teratoma was first described in 1842 by Stanley. In 1863, first Sacrococcygeal teratoma was successfully operated by Dr. W. Blizard.[1]
Historical Perspective
- Teratoma is one of the oldest known tumor.[1]
- A four thousand year old Babylonian document mentions the first case of Sacrococcygeal teratoma.
- 17th century: French obstetrician reported the first unquestionable teratoma.
- 1841: Typical sacrococcygeal teratoma was described in detail by Stanley.
- 1863: The term, Teratoma was introduced by Rudolf Virchow.
- 1863: Dr. W. Blizard became the first surgeon to successfully operate on Sacrococcygeal teratoma.
- 1884: Virchow referred to external Sacrococcygeal teratoma growth as a "soft tail".
- 1920: M.A. Perlstein, E. R. Le Count, and J. Bland-Sutton suggested Sacrococcygeal teratoma as a suppressed twins or parasitic fetuses since teratomas have many well developed features as finger, nail, hair.
- 1920s: Paul Kraske perfected the surgical technique for removal of the Sacrococcygeal teratoma.
- 1922: A. A. Law mentioned malignant degeneration of Sacrococcygeal teratoma and called for the removal of the tumor.
- 1950s and 1960s: R.E. Gross, H. W. Clathworthy, I.A. Meeker, and G. V. Brindley hypothesized that teratoma originated from totipotential cells of Henson's node.
- 1950s and 1960s: Germ cell theory of the Sacrococcygeal teratoma origin was introduced.
