Overview
In 1880, Ivar Sandström, a Swedish anatomist, described parathyroids in human following 50 autopsies. In 1924, James Bertram Collip, a Canadian biochemist, discovered and extracted parathormone and treated tetany with the help of parathyroid extract along with Douglous B Leitch. In 1925, Felix Mandl, a viennese surgeon performed first parathyroidectomy to treat a patient suffering from suffering from osteitis fibrosa cystica. In 1959, Howard Rasmussen and Lyman C. Craig at the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research purified parathyroid hormone. They also isolated the active polypeptide (parathormone B) from bovine parathyroid gland and gave its tentative formula in 1961.
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- The oldest known case of hyperparathyroidism was found in a cadaver from a Early Neolithic cemetery in southwest Germany.[1]
- In 1852, Sir Richard Owen, Hunterian Professor and Conservator of the Museum in the Royal College of Surgeons of England, described parathyroids in rhinoceros.[2]
- In 1880, Ivar Sandström, a Swedish anatomist, described parathyroids in human following 50 autopsies. He found two parathyroid glands bilaterally in 43 out of 50 autopsies.[3]
- In 1891, Friedrich van Rechlinghausen, a German pathologist described 'osteitis fibrosa cystica' (the parathyroid cystic bone disease).[3]
- In 1909, William George MacCallum and Carl Voegtlin, demonstrated association between parathyroid gland, calcium, and tetany.[4]
- In 1924, James Bertram Collip, a Canadian biochemist, discovered and extracted parathormone.[5]
- In 1932, L. I. Pugsley and Hans Selye, described the histological changes in the bone due to parathyroid hormone action and calcium metabolism in rat experiments. [6]
- In 1948, Nigel Ashworth Barnicot, an English anthropologist described the association between parathyroid hormone and bone resorption.[7]
- In the same year, Iftakhar Jahan and Robert F. Pitts described effect of parathyroid hormone in decreasing calcium and magnesium excretion.[8]
- In 1959, Howard Rasmussen and Lyman C. Craig at the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research purified parathyroid hormone.[9] They also isolated the active polypeptide (parathormone B) from bovine parathyroid gland and gave its tentative formula in 1961.[10]
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- In 1925, James Bertram Collip along with Douglous B Leitch, was the first who treated tetany with the help of parathyroid extract. They names the extract as parathyrin.[11]
- In 1925, Felix Mandl, a viennese surgeon, was the first who performed parathyroidectomy to treat a patient suffering from osteitis fibrosa cystica.[12]
Famous Cases
- Garry Shandling, a famous comedian suffered from hyperparathyroidism.[13]
