Jadassohn-Dössekker disease


Associated persons:
Walter Dössekker
Josef Jadassohn

Description:
Myxoedema tuberosum.

In 1916 Walter Dössekker published a very detailled analysis of case of myxoedema. He allready made a microscopic analysis in 1913, when Josef Jadassohn presented the case in front of a lokal medical association. According to the Russian experimental physiologist Ivan Petrovich Pavlov (1849-1936), the merit of Dössekker was to classify the disease in the group of Myxoedema. At end of the 1920s the term Myxoedema Jadassohn-Dössekker was coined.
