Overview
Ureteral anatomy and the function of the ureterovesical junction was first discovered by Galen, Leonardo da Vinci and John Sampson. In 1950s, Hodson and Edwards was the first to discover the association between association of vesicourtheral reflux with renal scarring.
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Ureteral anatomy and the function of the ureterovesical junction was first discovered by Galen, Leonardo da Vinci drawings and John Sampson dissections.[1][2]
- To prevent urine from going into the upper urinary tracts an anti-reflux mechanism was postulated by Da Vinci.[3]
- In 1950s, Hodson and Edwards was the first to discover the association between association of VUR with renal scarring from bacterial infection and the development of hydronephrosis.
- In 1952, Hutch performed the first antireflux surgery in paraplegic patients.
- In 1717, the first to description of obstruction of the posterior urethra (PUO) was by Morgagni.[4]
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- In 1952, the first antireflux surgery was developed by Hutch to treat VUR.[5]
- In 1958, a new surgical procedure to treat VUR was developed by Politano and Leadbetter.
