Summary

Although thrombotic cerebral complications were reported as early as 1825, it was almost 120 years later when the first scientific record of a treatment attempt was published [1]. This record, written by a British gynecologist, Frederick Ross Stansfield, included two case reports and started a discussion that continued during the decades that followed.
