Overview
VIPoma also known as Verner-Morrison syndrome was first described in 1958 by Verner and Morrison.
Historical Perspective
The neuroendocrine tumours of the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas were discovered after Rudolf Heidenhain first found out the neuroendocrine cells in 1870. VIPoma was first described in 1958 by American physicians, John U. Verner (endocrinologist) and Ashton B. Morrison (pathologist) in two patients with profuse diarrhea and hypokalemia due to malignancy of non-insulin producing pancreatic islets. VIPoma is also known as Verner-Morrison syndrome named after its discovering physicians.[1]
