Overview
Hodgkin's lymphoma was first discovered by Thomas Hodgkin, a British physician, in 1832.
Historical Perspective
- Hodgkin's lymphoma was first described by Thomas Hodgkin, a British physician, in 1832.Although earliest description for this disease was provided by Marcello Malpighi in 1666.[1][2]
- Dr. Hodgkin's report of macroscopic descriptionentitled "On some morbid appearances of the absorbent glands and spleen", was presented to the Medical and Chirurgical Society in London in 1832.[1] [3]
- In 1856, Samuel Wilks independently reported on a series of patients with the same disease that Hodgkin had previously described.[3] Wilks, a successor to Hodgkin at Guy's Hospital, was unaware of Hodgkin's prior work on the subject. Bright made Wilks aware of Hodgkin's contribution and in 1865, Wilks published a second paper, entitled "Cases of enlargement of the lymphatic glands and spleen", in which he called the disease "Hodgkin's disease" in honor of his predecessor.[3]
- Theodor Langhans and WS Greenfield first described the microscopic characteristics of Hodgkin's lymphoma in 1872 and 1878, respectively.[1]
- The cytogenetic characteristics of the malignant cells of Hodgkin's lymphoma which now is known as Reed–Sternberg cells, were described by Carl Sternberg, and Dorothy Reed in 1898 and 1902, respectively.[1][4]
- Tissue specimens from Hodgkin's seven patients remained at Guy's Hospital for a number of years. Nearly 100 years after Hodgkin's initial publication, histopathologic reexamination confirmed Hodgkin's lymphoma in only three of seven of these patients.[3] The remaining cases included non-Hodgkin lymphoma, tuberculosis, and syphilis.[3]
- Hodgkin's lymphoma was one of the first cancers which could be treated using radiation therapy and, later, it was one of the first to be treated by combination chemotherapy.
