Overview
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Carotid body was first described by Von Haller in 1743.[1]
- The exact mechanism of action of the carotid body is still needed to be discovered, however, from 1930, it has been accepted that monitoring of arterial blood oxygen is its main function.[2]
- The familial form of the carotid body tumor was first described by Chase in 1933.[1]
- Carotid body tumor was first described by Bungeler in 1952.[3]
- The tumor is also called chemodectema, first suggested by Mulligan in 1951.[4]
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- In 1880, The first surgical excision of the tumor was done by Dr. Reigner, which resulted in the death of the patient shortly after the surgery.[5]
- In 1886, The first successful surgical excision of the tumor was done by Dr. Maydl but again resulted in neurologic complication in the patient.[6]
- In 1889, The first surgical excision of the tumor without complication was done by Dr. Albert.[7]
