Spontaneous axillary-subclavian vein thrombosis (ASVT) has been first described by Cruveilhier. Sir James Paget identified the subclavian vein thrombosis in one of his patients. Hughes created the term "Paget-Schroetter".
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Spontaneous axillary-subclavian vein thrombosis (ASVT) has been first described by Cruveilhier in 1816.[1]
- In 1875, Sir James Paget identified the subclavian vein thrombosis in one of his patients. [2]
- Von Schroetter was the first one who hypothesized the relation between vascular injury from muscle strain and subclavian vein thrombosis in 1894. [3]
- In 1949 Hughes created the term "Paget-Schroetter" and published the first review.[4]
- The father of a patient used google to diagnose his son's Paget-Von Schrötter syndrome by querying on the symptoms, and it resulted in one of the first descriptions of "googling for diagnosis".[5]
