Life and Heritage of Hakaru Hashimoto

Abstract

In May 2021, the 140th anniversary of his birth is celebrated by Japanese doctor Hakaru Hashimoto. Did not receive recognition during his lifetime, this amazing scientist discovered a new disease of the thyroid gland, which later became the eponym. For a long time, his name was forgotten, but the main work of his life was decades ahead of the development of science. Without it, the study of autoimmune pathologies, the incidence of which currently continues to increase, would be impossible. It was on patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis that a study was conducted for the first time, demonstrating not only the uniqueness of the pathogenesis of thyroiditis, but also the existence of autoimmune reactivity of the body as a whole.
