Overview
Historical Perspective
The syndrome was discovered by British physician Eric Bywaters in patients during the 1941 London Blitz.[1][2] Seigo Minami, a Japanese physician, first reported the crush syndrome in 1923.[3][4][5] He studied the pathology of three soldiers who died in World War I from insufficiency of the kidney.
