When was elephantiasis found?
Elephantiasis, a condition characterized by extreme swelling, has been recognized for centuries, with references to similar symptoms dating back to ancient texts. The specific cause of elephantiasis, often linked to lymphatic filariasis caused by parasitic worms, was identified in the late 19th century. The filarial worms responsible were first described in scientific literature in the 1870s. Therefore, while the condition itself has been known for a long time, understanding its etiology has evolved more recently.
