The discovery of infectious mononucleosis was a process. In 1885, Russian pediatrician Nil Filatov reported an infectious process that exhibited symptoms that correspond to infectious mononucleosis that he called "idiopathic debitis." In 1889, German balneologist and pediatrician, Emil Pfeiffer, independently reported similar cases that tended to cluster in families that he called Drusenfieber or "glandular fever." The term "infectious mononucleosis" was used in 1920 by Thomas Peck Sprunt and Frank Alexander Evans. The causative link was uncovered in 1967 by Werner and Gertrude Henle.
